Wake up and Cry

Dear moon, I understand this problem I've been there. It is so difficult when I wake up crying and cannot stop. I am in trauma and have CPTSD so I have big challenges. I just think about the minute I'm in. I say things like -ok my feet are on the floor, I just got off my bed. I concentrate on moving one foot at a time. I start walking to the bathroom and I count my steps. My feet feel like lead. I did this for over a year. I dragged myself up every day and went to work, cannot believe I did this in my condition, but I was determined. I am in therapy and on meds this helped tremendously. Some days I didn't make it to the job but I tried and that's good enough for that moment . Some days I just accepted the small victories like brush my teeth read a book . That was good enough for that day. I say tomorrow is another day to try to do something else. If I can get thru the sunami I just went thru and survived it I know you can handle this. I have total faith in you. 7 cups is great for support, good for you for getting on here. This is a great community. Best regards, ABB 💜
