Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Another day of isolation

It just seems to go on and on with no way out

 

 

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

My day has gone from bad to worse. As if S’s accident wasn’t enough I’ve now copped a serve of abuse from another family member.

 

Why do people have to be so cruel? Why do I respond with sh?

 

Giving up

I know we have to have guidelines to protect everyone but sometimes they give me the shits that I cannot express myself the way I want.

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

I have been lying awake in bed for hours. It's after 6.30am. I decided to get up and make myself a cup of tea. I put some eye drops in my eyes because they felt itchy and sore and I did my affirmation in the mirror.

 

I'm not sure why my eyes are itchy and sore. It might be because I'm stressed about my housing agency. They called and left a message on my phone on Friday. I'm very worried and anxious about it. They are very difficult and stressful to deal with. Every single interaction I have with them triggers me, no matter how small. 

 

It p*sses me off when they call me on a Friday because it takes me days to get over it and it ruins my whole weekend. 

 

I have printed out a transfer form from the department of housing to apply for another house. I will start filling it out tomorrow. 

 

I wish I could move to a warmer part of Australia but I don't know if you can do that through the department of housing and I don't have any money to move. I'm sick of the cold, miserable weather here in Victoria. 

 

I look forward to the day when I never have to deal with my housing agency again. I absolutely hate them and I absolutely hate living here and I want to move.

 

F*** them, f*** them, f*** them. I think I need to listen to the Sex Pistols.

 

It sounds very cold and windy outside and I'm glad to be in my warm bed with my Pug beside me.

 

I will feed my Pug and make my breakfast and then I will do my affirmation in the mirror. And then I will listen to my audio book. Later today I will make a risotto with tuna and lemon and I will take my Pug for a walk (depending on the weather. I haven't looked at it yet).

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

It is one of my abusers birthday today. It is all over facebook with everyone wishing them a happy birthday. A bit hard not to notice. Brings back lots of memories. Not coping well with them. The pain is real.

Re: Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

The issue of social media content, that can be really jarring, is something that I am very familiar with. Unfortunately, if one wants to access various links, there are often reminders of past vivid and sometimes traumatic experiences to "walk past". Consequently, I rarely use or access social media websites for that reason.

 

I am just beginning to realise, that what I thought was normal, or at the most, on the edge of normal, is not so. Much of what I experience, even now, in terms of psychological, emotional and physical reactions and even responses, is quite outside the range of, what most people would consider, normal.

The Electrician never turned up – after I waited more than 5 hours for him, this afternoon.

 

I did think that the DES Jobsearch Provider would probably want me to do Traffic Management Training ASAP, before my Census Job starts.

 

Well I’m being Hammered – She insisted on me doing 5 hours White Card Course this Friday (with 2 & ½ days notice) – Wiping out my Friday Yoga Class, in the process (costly to me).

 

Then 2 full days of Online Course Work, in the last 2 weeks (even days) before I start the Census Job Training.

 

Not a good recipe for Success, either in that or for the Census position (training).

Sorry, I changed my mind.
