Traumatic Experiences Community Daily CheckIn - Sunday 23rd April 2017
It seems we have neglected the past few days to post a daily checkin for you guys, so apologies and here is today's! 
Well tomorrow is the launch of the Traumatic Experiences Sub Community where we finally see the rewards of months of work. We have a fun filled week for you and look forward to all our interactions in the next few days :)
How about y'all? How are you all doing? How has the weekend been for you all? I hope today turns out to be a good day for you all, and a better one than perhaps some of you had yesterday. I hope you have a great day today for you deserve that.
Healing from trauma, is tough work and so this space is for you to share whats happening in your world, how your healing process is doing, whats happening in your life, whether good, bad or inbetween. What positives have been happening for you lately, what achievements do you feel you have attained recently?
Please check in and let us know how you are doing. :)
Having a rough day but it's my own fault. After about a month without drinking, we had drinks last nite. It shouldn't be a big deal but it can be a slippery slope for us. Just disappointed in myself.
Also, haven't done my counseling homework for the third week. I guess I don't know what I'm doing. I question the necessity of even going to counseling at all.
I just wish I could be what I consider normal. Why can't I be? But it never happens that way. It's like I'm destined to be mental and I hate it. I don't want to have all these problems. So tired.

I strongly dislike my existence right now. It makes me feel a bit almost panicky when I feel my mind pushing to that place where it's nearing the cliff. It's like I try to mentally back pedal as fast as I can.
Plus, I'm shaky and depressed. Have to remember to keep calm, this will pass.

My thinky energy is used up right now and I need to leave, but I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time. I think you're right about telling yourself it'll pass though. Hugs <3
@hereigoagain

My weekend has been very challenging (yay news! lol). I was thrown into a series of my worst triggers that I've identified and I was extremely close to falling back into old destructive patterns, but managed to regain control and handle the situation rather well considering the circumstances. It still sucked. Today I spent time with my ex/sweetheart and it was a mixture of sorting things out, trying to find a relationship form and guidelines that might work for both of us, and having a good time together. It hurts that things won't be like I want them to be, and I really doubt that I'll ever find the kind of relationship that I long for with anyone, but it's good to have a loved one around again at least some of the time.
@hereigoagain
hey - to have the worst stuff thrown at you and not give in? Big kudos to you!! That's really good work and very commendable (pat yourself on the back!) <3
@themainjane
