I'm feeling really depressed. I've been working through some abuse memories. It's really making things hard for me. I can't stand myself. I feel like I'm a bad, disgusting person. I feel really unsafe. I'm not going to hurt myself. Just feel not good.

Hello, Princess4605!
Your recent posts speak of many things, each of which would be a terrible burden in itself. Combined...  I imagine you've been in this kind of place before. What has helped you through these times in the past? Quote:

Hi Rohag, talking with safe friends helps. Trying to find safe distractions. I think pisting helps me vent. And, connecting wiht others. Hope you are doing ok.

The comprehensive care group here in KY & especially the one in Danville offers a wonderful DBT group along with outstanding psychologists. I know that the skills taught in the DBT group I go to are wonderful for handling major distress when it hits. Yes, distractions are a part of that.....all kinds of distractions from helping others to crafts to (ugh) cleaning the house....lol. The breathing thing is something I just can't get into & but relaxing in the hot shower really works.......I can end up having a hot shower 4+ times a day on a bad day......as long as the hot water holds out
 I seriously like the idea of a vacation....something I really haven't had in years....so I fake it & pretend I'm on vacation. Really, I had to be on vacation to live around the beautiful woods I have in my own back acres now so I kick back & pretend I'm in a cabin instead of my house. Of course, for me, a wonderful trail ride at Eagles Nest or Shaker Village helps feel like vacation also. I really wish I had known about DBT back in 1994 when my depression was so horrible......but PTSD issues that have hit me since then create the need just as much.I do agree, I think posting here really helps with the venting & the connecting with others.....PC has really wonderful people to connect with. Hope you are able to process the abuse memories.....which will also help you feel better.
