I am actually coping well.
I just had a theft of some items incredibly important to me. I identified myself symbolically with these things so to lose them is a pretty big deal. There was a time I would have felt like I had lost my right arm. But I am okay. My CBT work sheets havve helped. This isn't the end of my world. In fact, insurance may allow me to replace it all. |

I'm coping Ok. Could be feeling better. But I'm taking active steps to move forward. Sorry about your theft and items. Your attitude is great.

By staying positive and telling myself to stay calm and not to panic.
The main way I cope in life is just staying positive. It works very well. |

I feel miserable, now everyone thinks I'm an animal abuser. My past haunts me and I just wish I could sleep.
I have an appointment with a therapist, but as time goes by, I'm just finding excuses to avoid reliving that crap. For the record, emotions aside. I love dog's. Especially puppy breath. I think I'm done with that whole childhood crappy cancer. So tempted to get off my face, but at 2:30am haha, doubt it...not |

I have PTSD and how I cope is that I write out my feelings or I cry. I just cry and hug a pillow cause I know I must get all these feeling's out if I'm going to heal at all. Writing helps me the most though and listening to music. I mostly listen to shoegaze and dream pop artists. They seem to take me away and all I feel happiness.
Music pretty much saved me from everything. If I didn't have music to listen too, I believe I'd be lost. |

Honestly, without music I think I might not be alive. Coping...pdoc way raised meds. I'm feeling much more stable, but trying to cope with the side effects of feeling "loopy" and light-headed. Feels like I keep sliding out of the environment into a half-sleep. |

I was doing fairly good in spite of a hard day at work. Then bang my H is mad at the world via me. I've told him certain subjects are triggers for me and he says psychomumbojumbo ****. So I said I love you and clicked off the phone. Toxic, yes, I know. I am still shaking and gritting my teeth. Probably won't sleep. This ISN'T coping.

I ruined everything. I think I am just too traumatized to deal with certain situations. I hoped I could shut up and go along, but I got hysterical and made a scene. Now I plan to make myself scarce and think I really do have cPTSD. When you are doing a huge shot of vodka in a parking lot on a Sunday morning and trying to leave the family trip ... you know

Relapsed again, but strangely enough, I'm using less. Too lazy to even put this in a proper frame.. I've been up since 3am.
Looks weird in the picture because it's 3d

Not very well. Feel guilty and out of step about everything. Feels painful. Things I am trying seem to be making it harder as they kind of pile up when they feel like they are not working.

It's 5:30 so too early to know for certain, but I'm in a positive mood. I just hope for a smooth transition after my messy medicating habit last week.
Let's give it a shot |

I haven't gone out today which probably isn't a good thing.
