Flashback

[AZ1970]

Good evening everyone. I woke up feeling bad about myself for eating too much last night. I decided to journal to sort through it all. It took me to a place I hadn't expected and it triggered an intense flashback and body memory. I was shaking and it was hard to breathe. I decided to go to a program I attend that has an art studio. I have discovered that art is very healing for me. I made a mandala, which was so rewarding. I got home and felt extreme exhaustion. I laid down and listened to a pod cast and fell asleep. Does anyone else feel wiped out after a flashback?

I don't know if anyone else listens to the Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast. It helps me feel like I am not alone.

Dear AZ1970, your post is inspirational, I listen to mantra and do a bit of drawing, creating mandalas are a great form of meditation.

I quite like Claudia Hammond radio 4 podcast ALL IN THE MIND
