Traumatic Experiences Community Daily Check-in: Sunday September 16th
Apologies everyone for such a late check-in today. Blame it on lazy weekend brain?
I'll keep today's brief. I usually ask about how you're feeling on a scale of 1-10, but sometimes numbers aren't the best way to describe how we're feeling. I'm a very visual person and sometimes speaking in terms of colors makes more sense to me. Those of you who are group mods may know that I often like to ask about rooms in terms of color: are you red, yellow or green today?
I would say I am a purple today. To me, purple embodies feeling calm but also reflective. Let me know if you have a different interpretation!
What color describes how you're feeling today?
Have a wonderful rest of your weekend!
I am feeling Clear smudged with Gray/Black

*sending supportive vibes your way* did something happen to cause the brain overload today? It's okie if you don't feel comfy sharing about it. I really like the descriptions you used for your colors. I could relate to the feelings you were naming

Things are always happening. It's a never-ending story. I am THE CLEANUP WOMAN.
Make a mess of things then everyone runs to me to fix it. I am sick of this.

Im feeling red, yellow, black, blue, and purple today!
Feeling red and bright yellow and black, not mixed, more like strippy or swirled together. Very anxious and stressed, working from home again today because of migraines and honestly I don't know how much more of this I can take. I am having so many nightmares where I lose control of my body in different ways. After being phsycially abused and sexually assaulted multiple times the fact its my own body thats causing this now is terrifying me. I can't fight it and I can't leave. I WANNT MY OWN PERSONAL AUTONOMY. and its being taken away from me day by day. Its just highlighting my disconnect between my body and brain, I feel like I am spending alot of my life disocciated at this stage.
