Checking in again
Hi everyone, just checking in here again because it’s started out to be a tricky weekend navigating some anxiety and depressive feelings after a therapy session. When I get like this it makes me feel like I am going backwards at worst or not making progress at best. Trying to trust the process of just riding this wave out and hoping that it will ease. Feels like I am stuck again and worthless. Anyway am going to revert back to some breathing work and have some lunch.

Re: Checking in again
Also it all makes me feel like completely withdrawing.

Re: Checking in again
Hey @Hyperballad ,
Thanks for the update. When things are tough, I used to also have the tendency to withdraw. Yet I found this not to be very helpful in the long run.
I don't know about you as to whether withdrawing is good for you or not.
Whatever you choose, we will support you.

Re: Checking in again
@Tilz Not in a great way tonight. Am at the ED of the hospital because I had another spiral over something. It’s been overwhelming - I tried to calm it all down but it was just very hard.

Re: Checking in again
@lavenderhaze Thank you. I came back home afterwards and just went to sleep. I saw my therapist the next day and we spoke about how crying and letting it out can be a release.

@Hyperballad Hope you are fine now. How are you now? Is it still pain?
