@Jene_Sais_Quoi May I suggest you tell yourself (for that part of you that needs to rationally address the trauma) something like, “I know this isn’t logical & I can’t get my body to listen, but I can address my body in ways my body understands. I can move through this trauma energy (exercise) and later I can reengage with safe people. That’s all I have to do right now to return to safety.” (This validates what you’re already experiencing as well as make space for the other self-care.)
This is sound advice, and while I don't tend to advocate the use of drugs (and ethanol is a drug), a glass of wine & a hot bath can do wonders, as well.
Engage in activities that comfort you. I...don't think this is psychologically bad advice.
You are killing me.. that is FUNNY! 🤣
when it gets here, should I rename it Schrödinger? 🤔
ATX Jane, has been so amazing, so supportive, and been giving me really great advice.
Drinking is helping a bit... just to at least calm my nerves.
My hands are not shaking as much now.... my mind still racing,
I'll be OK tho.
You guys, really... thank you!
I feel so stupid... you know... feeling so stupid.
and, here it is 6AM... so, I'm the only person awake. 😂

Totally agree with Jay. Not stupid at all. You’re reacting the best way you can under the circumstances you’re experiencing.
I have to hit the rack - please check in and keep us posted. What an amazing community we have. We have so much to be grateful for.
Sweet dreams to everyone. 💜
You have very sweet dreams, and really, thank you. ♥️
Ohhh my god, I'm so sorry, my brain is not thinking too linear at the moment. 🤦
You have ALL been so amazing, and so wonderful.
Really, I could not have found a better community of people. ♥️

Would it help if I sent one of my cats? Even at book rate (3-4 Months) Ausar shouldn't cost much.
Airholes are extra, though 🙀😹
