So, overall I'm still doing pretty ok but I Remember a while ago I made a post about waking suddenly from sleep to my heart racing. That settled for a while but has recently started again but it only happens when I stay at my friends house. I stayed last sat and it happened then and again last...

I joined the gym recently and I've booked a spin class for Thursday...but I didn't think it through 🙈 If it was my old gym that I'd been to before, I'd be fine but because it's a new gym I've never been to/I don't know the layout etc I kinda feel like I need someone to come with me for the first...

Hi! So i had my first session back and it was OK. She has said that i should be curious about why it is I can read/watch all the horrible things around true crime/drawn to law and order SVU but can't talk about my trauma. I don't know, I guess I've never really thought about it 🤷‍♀️ I this a...

Hi guys. Hope you're all good?! 😊 I just wondered if any of you have done trauma informed yoga or something along those lines, to release trauma from the body. Just something I'm thinking of starting but would like some opinions on this. I've seen some videos on YouTube that look ok, I think...

Had my last session of the year this morning! It was OK, nothing big because I won't be speaking to her for 3 weeks now, not feeling good about that but it is what it is and obviously, she deserves the break too...so I'm not bitter or anything! I need to give her a quick email, just to let her...

Spoke to therapist this morning, it went well and I found it really helpful. We spoke about my struggles to talk etc and she mentioned about a shut down / destabilization and what kind of things could be helpful and I feel like she really listens to me. She touched back on the last session...

Session this morning and it was ok. We spoke about the money on the pillow thing and she did her best to tell me it didn't make me complicit in any of it. She asked a lot of questions, it was hard and I just went so quiet and like my mind felt blank/didn't know what to say and I hate getting...

I been feeling a bit of a mix since the last session I had (we spoke about the ab*se when I was younger) Coming out of it, I kind of felt ok, like I had taken a step in the right direction but then I just started feeling like I shouldn't of said anything, I was wrong or that my therapist didn't...

Have session in morning and haven't emailed her anything I'd planned to yet 🙈 and I should....I've had a pretty ok week. I've been ill but feeling a little more normal now and I've had my nails done today (freebie because my friend is doing a beauty course and I'm her model!) Therapist said the...

You have spoken about going back to childhood stuff. I think we could try this but I just wanted to say beforehand that things on this issue can be a bit jumbled. I wanted to say this now because you know what I'm like, I think back on things I've said and maybe realise I had said something...

I had a trigger come up a few days ago and since then, I keep replaying 2 of the r,*pes in my head. This is never going to go away, Is it? It's going to be something that will always be there. I have a therapy appt in the morning and this is what I should be bringing up but I don't really want...

Had a session this morning. She said how she'd been worried about me since last week because it was a difficult one, speaking about one of the r*pe incidents with little ones dad and I was in a "dark place" I've kept myself busy this week, so I did better at session today but I keep thinking how...

My partner went out on Friday night, came back around 4am. He wanted sex, I didn't. I said no multiple times, I stop stop multiple times and all he said was that I was giving hum mixed signals and now my head is baffled, how is no and stop mixed signals. I've spoken to my therapist about it this...

I've started with a spiritual coach that offers different workshops. I'm starting the trauma healing/journal therapy one today. She's lovely. This isn't in place of my usual therapist, I just thought it might compliment it. I've had some homework set today. 7 or 8 questions to complete for next...

Feel like I had a productive session this morning. I didn't send the email I'd wrote but still ended up speaking about everything I wanted to. The avoidance etc and it went well. She helped to explain some things and is glad I spoke to her about it. Said how me coming to the realisation about...

Had a bit of anxiety and sick feeling last night. I thought I was doing OK but obviously not. I don't know if it's related to this whole avoidance things I've posted about previous but do any of you ever feel like you gaslight yourself? Like, you minimise or tell yourself that you over reacted...

Had a session yesterday, didn't talk about much...just the issues with little ones dad and working etc She asked why I haven't been writing bits and sending pre session, like I normally did. Said she thinks it's my avoidance and she's right. It's partly because I felt like I was OK and partly...

I've been trying to get in at my Drs about my anxiety getting worse and I can't seem to get an appt. My friend has anti anxiety meds (propranolol) and has given me some and they've actually really helped. If I tell my therapist about this, is there any way that my friend will get in trouble? I...

They said the next appt is 14th Oct and that just seems like too far away. I have the NHS app but can't make appts through it with my surgery

Having a hard time with anxiety right now. My therapist advised me to speak to Dr as an emergency appt but there is never anything available, they say to call at 8am on the morning....so I work myself up and I do that but can't get through, so I emailed instead but they won't do appts over...

I've had a voicemail left from somebody from the local mental health team. Apparently it's been reported there are concerns about my mental health. I've not called them back yet because I'm scared about it....especially as the main carer to my 3 children. I don't want anyone involved. I'm not...

Had 2nd session of the week this morning and man, I needed it! I feel much better from just talking things out with her, we mostly spoke about my friend and the bar incident. I told her how I thought it was something I could just leave alone but how I wasn't being realistic and how it was the...

I've calmed myself now, so feel bad about taking an appt that could of waited 🙈

9.45 appt for tomorrow 🙂

I've sent her an email to see if she has anything available tomorrow 🤞
