This might work for a lot of people, but if you’re past a certain threshold, or, once you’re alone with your thoughts, you only manage to self-flagellate, you’re only going to end up in a worse place than before. People in these situations do not need to be told to meditate, they need to be taught how, probably with direct guidance at the beginning.
CPTSD + ADHD + Autism = a mess, I’m fine so long as my brain never stops. I’m hoping to buy a house in another province to get as far away from my family as possible.
Feel free to hit me up on matrix if you want to talk (disclaimer: no trauma dumping plz). Also, there is an autism community on world and a matrix chat you can join if you like with over 100 members. Very chill and nonviolent place imo.
I think people with a bad past understand each other silently. As long as we can stay nonviolent towards each other, we make good running mates (metaphor).
No pressure, I‘m just trying to be clear and complete.
Oh god please don’t leave me alone with my thoughts. Meditation leaves me with panic attacks, and breathing exercises leave me dizzy and anxious.
Would dissociating for a while work? 🥺👉👈
Exactly this. I do NOT want to be in there alone.
That kind of means you need to be.

I’ll be in there around 3PM, please turn off the music next time.
Sounds like me when I was in a bad place mentally. Do you have support?
I do, thank you for asking :)

Welcome to the club. Sad club but a club anyway.
