It's almost midnight here. I went to sleep at 5:30pm but woke back up after 4 hours of needed sleep. So I'm back up for a while and feeling good. The mental pain has been silenced since I gave my brain the rest it needed!
 
i understand your exhaustion. sometimes even lacing up my shoes tires me out and i am not kidding. as i am new to this form i was wondering whether anyone experiences frozen feelings? i was at a family gathering and they were talking about an assault on there son and i immediately had to get up and leave.
I haven't had frozen feelings in a while(if you mean zoning out) because things haven't been that bad lately, but on the other hand I congratulate myself when I do the simplest thing like brushing my teeth as if I just won a marathon, which in a way I did by doing it!:happy: I also was at a community meeting a few days ago and someone was talking about something distressing, and I had to get up and just leave. I just couldn't handle anything distressing.
 
Good on you for getting up and leaving when someone was talking about something distressing. That happened to me last night at the meeting Kim and I just froze and has a bad anxiety attack and then almost had a panic attack. I wish I could just get up and walk away instead of listening.
 
I'm doing much better, my son is much better and I've had a nice day out with my sister.:tdown:

Dear Cath, so pleased to hear that it is going a little better with your son. I've been "out of it" so to speak for a while. Have been reading the posts on the forum and little else. I have read of the drama's you have been having and can sympathise with you, having gone through it myself with my youngest. He was quite suicidal at the time. However it was years ago, but the memory is still there.

Stay strong during this difficult time, although there must be some boundaries for you and hubby sake. Thinking warmly of you and will try to keep in tough. Huge :hug:'s.
 
I feel guilty for not keeping in contact with my forum friends. Guess I took a nose dive after being attacked in an email by someone I was trying to help. Had everything thrown back in my face. It makes you a lot more wary of people.

Still tend to isolate a lot. Like being on my own, other times I hate it because of the lonliness. Still to scared to form friendships, especially where males are concerned.

They say times takes care of everything, I hope so.

Take care everyone!
