Here I go again... complaining about my life...
I am so tired of everything being triggering right now. DBT on Monday was awful. I nearly went in the bathroom and cut while I was on break. I managed not to, and talked to one of the group leaders afterward, and gave her what I had in my purse that I usually cut with. Unfortunately, due to my husband's job, we have a lot more of them laying around the house. I really want to use one right now. I can't handle these feelings and thoughts |

Can you call your therapist and share these feelings and thoughts?

Talked to my t a few minutes ago because I am having a rough night. Family is teasing me because my memory sucks and it is a major trigger for me. T said I should just ignore them for a while and distract myself so I don't cut, so that is what I am doing now

I made it through Thanksgiving, which was really tough. Everything has changed about the holidays and none of it in a good way.
I want to cut, because I want to make it go away. I am nearly having a panic attack right now and I don't know how to stop it, other than cutting. I feel like I can't breathe, like I have an elephant on my chest and every breath hurts ![]() |

Back to panic again. I feel like I can't breathe again and I really want to cut to make the panic go away.

I can't keep dealing with this. I feel like I can't breathe, like I have a heavy weight on my chest. I need the anxiety to go away!

Having a really hard night again. The anxiety always seems to get worse at night.
I have an appointment with my t tomorrow. It scares me. I have contacted her all but one day this week, so she knows how truly bad it's been. That means that I am going to have to go in and talk about it. I have to hold it together. I am afraid if I let go, everything is going to come pouring out and I won't be able to pick myself up and keep going after my appointment. |

Update:
My t texted me back and said she's proud of me that I was able to let her know how I was feeling and she looks forward to talking about it next week. I still don't feel comfortable contacting her when I am having SI urges though |

Please don't isolate from her. You said elsewhere that anger scares you. Keep working on this. You will learn a lot from it!!!!
