I have a farmers tan. First time in a few years I've been able to feel comfortable wearing short sleeves. I have some fairly intense scars from SI (the most intense isn't even from SI, its where I got stepped on Haha). I just decided to let people stare, it is what it is and if they don't like it I don't care.

Right on, girl. I have felt self conscious before in shorts or a bathing suit as both my thighs are scarred from self harm and it's quite noticeable, especially if I'm tan. Now I just say EFF it. If I'm comfortable with whats on my body, other people should be too!

I am feeling overwhelmed. So many thoughts and emotions, I can't keep up!

Have just listened to recording of therapy session talking about past trauma. It's part of exposure. I'm feeling so depressed now and full of self hatred. Trying to think of something to do to take my mind off it

I don't know what I'm feeling right now. I want the girl I love here. I can't stand it without her. I hate being so weak... my mom asked me why I was looking so alive yesterday (I'd seen my baby the day before) and when I replied with that I felt like I could get through this with her (let's call her A) by my side she was like "But what will you do when she gets sick of you? It WILL happen. No one wants someone so weak and independent!!"... I felt safe and loved for the first time of my life with A. Now the fear of abandonment is back and I want to disappear.

Blimey, no wonder you feel bad about yourself if that's how your own mom talks to you? seriously my mother verbally abused me all my life, cant be bothered with that **** anymore....have gone no contact. My mother also said that all would go tits up with my boyfriend at the time (who is now my husband!) that created in me great fear even after we got married. Now I think why on earth am I listening to the crap an abuser told me? sorry I had to rant, people speaking to their kids like that pisses me right off!!

Emotional day.... trigger warning




Today was the Baby Loss Memorial service. It was very emotional, and hard to see my husband cry as we remembered the baby that we wanted so much. The day was hard but also healing.

Exhausted. I'm running around like a madwoman trying to make sure the farm is spotless because my boss gets back tomorrow (like a million times cleaner than when they left). I'm really nervous about it.

Rude friends

I know it is not all me!! I hate them, not literary, but their principles and I keep on harping over it and over it. My T suggested right a letter, but not to mail it, to let go of it.

I bought a bottle of wine yesterday, not realizing I would have a perfect reason to lose myself in it that evening. Unfortunately, the only corkscrew I had was one attached to a pocketknife (I'm a weakling). And so the bottle remains unopened. Maybe I'll finally get to drown my sorrows tomorrow night.
Thanks for this!

In tears, argument with husband. Can't get hold of therapist and am hiding upstairs. I'm scared cos I don't know why I'm feeling so terrible. Surely it can't be the trauma work? I feel so alone

Hello,

I booked a place in a crisis center, but not tonight.
If I am in a crisis tonight again, I will go to the hospital.
