What does it mean what that person did this morning and why and how do we think of it and make a meaning so it can be put away in the past- i know its erased but thats just like dissociating and pretending it didnt happen and it DID!

kathy, i know it was difficult to read. i know it was extremely triggering. i try to make sense of these things but it's really difficult. i think some ppl are very sick and do these things. i think some ppl are very immature and young and do these thinks. i also think that some ppl enjoy wreaking havoc sometimes...all of those aren't nice to deal with.

i'm sorry a mod didn't get to them before they were seen by some. we can't control what other ppls do sometimes, and that's sad. i'm proud of you for controlling what you can. you're trying to make sense of this and place it. that's a good thing.

the only sense that i can make is what i replied here. i hope you're able to move away from this quickly hon.

thank you kimmy- I have to go to the dentist and i was going to go but now I think i cant go. I was supposed to get there at 10 but i dont know about going and driving and sitting there with my mouth open

[kimmydawn]

((((((((((((((((((((( kathy )))))))))))))))))))))) i understand. keep yourselves safe right now.

kathyanita,

I agree with what kimmy said above. I think trying to make sense of it is normal. Sometimes when in a triggered state we have to let it go until later and just focus on doing all we can to keep ourselves safe.

I think not going to your appointment (the dentist is soooooooo scary for me) and not driving right now are good ideas. It sounds like you have very good instincts to keep yourselves safe.

When triggered I cannot even drive the under ten miles to my therapist's office. As much as it could help I know my limits and driving in a triggered state is beyond what I can handle.

Good for you for taking care and trusting your instincts.

I am very sorry this was so triggering for you. Please PM me if you need to or want to talk.

You're doing a great job of self care. I applaud that!!

thanks zh &kimmy
i went to a support group meeting but I got a ride from someone who came 40 minutes out of thier way to pick me up- I;m lucky to have some people in the "real world" that I can talk to also- our whole meeting was only three people because of weatther but we talked about faith and it was good.
Thanks again

We don't have any support groups up in my area that deal w/ my issues. Do what you need to do. You know your mind & its limitations. Take it easy & you'll get thru this. I like where we live 'cos it's country-ish but not good for when you need mental help. My T is 30 min. away.
Hope you're doing better.
Love,
