The title says it all... feel so low... my alters .. are out and about.. reacting to everything..

and.. no I do not feel like a failure because of that.... not at all.. I am DID... and I embrace that... thank goodness for alters...

I just feel rough... with my ED... and my bee sting... swelling so... just plain "out of sorts".. with everything....my teeth hurt from the extreme amount of sugar...

I have to pick myself up... and keep going.. just have too...

That's hard. I'm sorry you are struggling. Have you tried writing down what is going on before and after the ED type behaviors? That might help you figure out what triggered the behavior to begin with so you can work to change that.

Maybe journal some and find out what's going on. I'm always surprised at what comes out when I'm journaling, whether I am aware of writing or not. It really helps to not only understand but also just to get it out of the brain.

Bee stings can happen to anyone- no failure involved. I feel like such a failure.... I dissociate pain a lot so usually my struggle is knowing when something is bad enough to get looked at. The body here doesn't feel "owned" so a lot of things are disregarded. I think it's a good thing that you can feel the pain from the sting and the sugar. A good friend of mine says pain lets us know we are alive and what we need to work on.

Take care freewill.

=( hugs for you!!
no one on the planet can get through without failure. We all fail at something - it's called growing. Sucks, but it is true. You're right, pick yourself up, dust yoursefl off, and do what you can do today - no more, no less. No one can blame you for that. acceptance of ourselves of where we are at.
(this is a yoga day, can you tell?).
many hugs,
k

You are no failure. I hope you can begin to see what a wonderful person you are. Sometimes it is hard to do this. But maybe you can accept others ideas about this. Please take care.
