Flashbacks, episodes and exam pressure
Depression Support / by hardworkingPenguin6040

 May 5th
...See more I have exams coming up, and I wasted the 3-day gap I had-I kept putting everything off, and now the exams are back-to-back. For the past 3 days, I haven't been okay. I've been having flashbacks of my abusive parents, and it's been so hard to sleep-I stay awake until dawn cause i get those flashbacks everytime i try putting my phone down, causing bad episodes. From the past 3 days, I've also been dealing with nervous breakdowns, anxiety, and panic attacks. Collapsing every night on the bathroom floor at 4am. Im calling helplines today randomly, texting ppl for councellor and psychiatric referrals. I guess im relapsing back and ive to start meds again. Im exhausted by this constant fight fr survival with my so called parents. My nervous system isnt able to even tolerate their voices
