Traumatic Experiences Community Daily Check In for January 6th, 2019

Thanks for offering a safe place and safe hugs.

I am feeling pretty overwhelmed today. Its hard to do much of anything. I guess Im going to try to focus on one task at a time. And even if I dont get a lot done today, if I accomplish a few things, I think that would be good right? Something I could try to feel good about in regard to myself?

I spent 4 days not enough in the present...and scaring myself getting stuck repeating. BUT I have been doing a much better job since lunchtime today. I still very much have to work at staying in the present, though, so just hanging in there 1 moment at a time.

I spent a lot of time resting today, as I've had a few months of very rocky road to travel. So, though I feel a bit drained from that travel down the rocky road, I feel a little better (now that the holidays are done and over with). I have been pretty depressed, suicidal, and ready to self-harm at any given moment. There are signs that this might be lifting. Only the coming days will tell for sure. For now, I am guardedly optimistic.
