@GezzaP telephone appointment is a start. I’ve made an appointment, it’s telephone. Maybe I will make a face to face appointment the following week. I’ll let him know next week about the ED plan, so he is prepared for it when I do go in person.
I hope the need cat food helps.
@AuntGlow I ended up retraumatised and pathologised. What I got from the conversation was 1. I was stuck because I processed the events to be worse. 2. I should know what is overreacting and what isn’t. Like is there a social norm I’m missing here? 3. If it’s affecting every aspect of your life then there is a problem. So is that supposed to mean if you have ptsd you’re responding too much? I’ve had other conversations that didn’t hit me okay, like i should think about consequences of how suicide will affect others (when I was suicidal) and how you can’t have a healthy romantic relationship without intimacy being the core. I can’t exactly jump into a romantic relationship and be physical immediately with my history. I would need to learn to feel comfortable and safe to let someone that close.
I’ve just had something to eat. I’m going to do a head massage, music and prayers
