Traumatic Experiences Subcommunity- Daily Check-in: 7th March, 17
Hey again, beautiful people <3 How has today been? Just like there's always time for pain, there's always time for healing <3 So I really want you all to focus on healing today :) Here's a gif to help you :D
Let's help each other heal <3
I'm kinda scared. I see my therapist in less than an hour.
@BeeLeigh What has you worried in particular Bee? Try and remember if you can that your therapist is there to support you, to listen and to help you with whatever it is thats going on for you. They only want the best for you. Therapy isn't an easy process but you have someone one to one who can walk side by side with you during your healing process. Try and take what you can from each session and perhaps view it as a journey of self growth and self discovery. Wishing you all the best for your session :)

I know what we're gonna talk about because I told her to ask me about something specific and I'm really nervous now 😕
@BeeLeigh Ah okay. And how do you feel about doing this now, nervous I guess? if your not comfortable doing it thats okay, but weigh up the pros and cons. If you dont do it this week, when you think about doing it another time, will you feel as nervous? would it be better for you to face any fears you may have and do it? What are you hoping to achieve or gain from sharing with the therapist. Try and think about what the gain will be for you, and decide if its worth doing. But if you are truly not up to it thats okay too

I have to try. I'll be just as scared next week and the week after that and the week after that. Doesn't matter how long I wait I'll still be just as scared. I have to do this.
Hello. I'm new the forums.
I think this is the right forum for me. I want to have a checkin and stuff. This day has been really intense. I found out a lot of information about my paternity and now I'm trying to figure out who I am all while navagating my ptsd :/
I hope I can find support through this community
<3
@sociableSugar4242 Hey welcome to the subcommunity! :) So happy to have you here :) We do have daily check-ins and we'd love for you to participate :)
I'm sorry you're having a tough time, sweet pea.. But just breathe and think of all your options and the best way to handle it :) We're here for you <3
@sociableSugar4242 I hope you find the support you deserve here : )
I wanted to give up today :(
@happycloud7o9 Please remember so many people are here to support you! We want to help and care for you
@audreey I don't think that's true.. the last listener I tried talking to about what was going on just randomly stopped talking. I don't think I matter at all :(
@happycloud7o9 You do matter! I am so proud of you for stepping forward to join this site. I am sorry you had a bad experience with a listener. You can read through some other listener's descriptions and message them privately. I believe in you!
@audreey Thank you for being so nice and caring!! Yesterday I was triggered by something so felt super down but today has been much better. Thanks again for being kind!
@happycloud7o9 I'm so glad you didn't.. We all want to give up everyday but by doing that, we'd be punishing ourselves so we try and fight harder everyday :) Glad you did the same, sweetie <3
