Realizing Iāve been coming in a little too hot and bringing negative energy; Iām really sorry and Iāll curb it a lot. Iām sorry about that, this thread isnāt my personal sounding board.
I love it here and appreciate you all, really. I hit a low point for almost a few weeks but just made some great personal protection plans and reviewed what Iām doing (or missing the mark on) for helping myself. Iām still a baby in this process and itās gotta be a slow and steady. A house built in a rush without precision and care canāt stand the storms.
Take care everyone, thanks again for putting up with me.

Huge congratulations on one year!! Enjoy the good feelings that come with this day and this achievement. And if you dont feel exactly as you thought or there are triggers thats ok as well.
This sentiment also applies to everyone else with a milestone today/around now/all the time. Glad this place celebrates them.

And of course you deserve a standing ovation. Did I ever tell you people confuse me for JayLo?
If I did, I was lying.

Tonight will be day 213 of no self harm TW for mentions of SA
Still feel hell physically, just getting worse. My heart rate also got to 140 at one point.
Today I discovered a new PTSD trigger. I was helping a kid put on his pants and he was trying to balance so he grabbed the back of my head. That brought back a flood of memories of when my uncle forced me to do things and he would hold the back of my head. I was at work so I kept it together and other than being quieter than usual I donāt think anyone noticed anything was wrong. Then I locked myself in the bathroom at lunch and had a little meltdown. Iām ok now just was very sudden.
Because of work Iām so busy during the day I donāt think about anything negative or really anything outside of work very often. But nights are so much worse now. Itās like every bad thought I didnāt have time to think about comes all at once. The nightmares are getting really bad too. Itās just something Iām going to have to learn to deal with.
Something positive: I love my job so much. Today even when I was feeling sick, I had good moments. I had much less patience from being sick, but the good moments make it all worth it. I was holding a two year old all on and off all day because she wanted me and only me to pick her up. And everytime I walk in the room a couple kids run up and give me a hug. One kid didnāt see me this morning when I got to work because we were outside and he heard my voice and came running for a hug.
