What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

Well, at least now I know, & I understand. Word games are untruths or lies, lies are unsafe, unsafe = no caring, no caring and unsafe= no trust, no trust = don't have your back. Not an eloquent description but good enough.

So, I guess I feel 'informed'.
Best get going.
Hugs to all, Happy V?lentine's Day, now or soon. Can't say it's unusual to find hearts everywhere now. :)
 
Splintered sense of self mode = Ah so no one told you this is trauma Style?

One critical voice:A look/ Me being judged and belittled = Me going to attack you, Me on fear Me feels like fried chicken

I will be in power and I will be humiliated at the same time
 
Vulnerable. I posted on a thread on Facebook something that has had about 500 likes in less than an hour and only two negative responses. About something close to my trauma but not my trauma. I feel scared.
 
That is a good word @Mee , 'scared'- that is how I felt, but I was let down in it. I should not have hoped.

I am afraid I was presumptuous- as who am I to deserve anything? But then I realized the problem was hope, listening to words that don't apply to myself.

But, if you have 500 likes+, surely others are relating and showing their support. (And there will always be a negative one- I once read a review for a hotel that said it was too clean! :laugh: ) :hug:

ETA @Mee , they say what comes from the heart reaches the heart. But I would also add, if you have a Big and deep, good heart- wow. Well that's 'you'. :hug:

Yes. It’s just scary to be exposed. I am scared an abuser or someone involved in mh retraumatisation will see it. Tough . I have a voice I should use .

I am sorry you feel scared and disappointed too. I sometimes think PTSD is about loss Of hope.

I am pleased you dared hope ?
 
Yes I understand @Mee . I don't do FB but you can tighten your settings if necessary?

It's probably more deleterious keeping it a secret than not. You're not naming names. And as you said, it's related. :hug:

No, it was a big mistake, a cause of grief/ assinity. I am going to distance myself from any of those kinds of words/ environments.
 
Overwhelming sadness for a family friend whose husband had a massive stroke and isn't doing well at all. So much devastating sickness, loss, and grief. It's pretty damn hard not to get taken under by it all some days.
