I don't feel well

Against_the_current profile image

Went to the pool. Got lost, anxious and sunburnt. Now I don't feel well. Maybe the burned is causing it but i feel so scared and have flashbacks of being ill. Got a panadol and an after sun cream but mentally im beaten up. I messaged my parents and only got more triggered. Mom isn't responding to me at all, i'm worried hse doesn't care. Like in my nightmare. I asked her for a sun oltion, hse didn't get me. Now hse wants us to visit granma on 2nd and i can't say no so gotta prepare. I'm alone and scared, beaten up by flashbacks, thinking about mom and sunburnt.

the concept of absence of fear is somehow in our society

total nonsense...

we do what we have to despite fear...or coping with fear

or helpig each other thrhough stress (fear) ...times.....part of reasons the church and communiites evolved......;people pull totther.....not alone..bs.....fear.....is rational and normal in hard tmes ad motivates us to change it.....

its not a character flaw.....

i shuldn have fear i .....says who?

we learn to manage it and get used to it by preparing ourelvs and coping and doing funny skits when we have no food...what ur favorite rock soup; man? .....

we learn to make freinds with fear annd not flog ourselves becaus eome book says ....oh bull

so what......what do we reall need to get done to suvvive ad p;lan and cope..helping each other is historical.......why sodceity evolved......

in reply to Against_the_current

Something I do for sun burns in is to soak a tea bag in vinegar and put it in the frig to cool. Put on cotton or paper towel and put on sun burn. Works amazingly for me. It is just something I learned growing up. I hope your sunburn gets better soon.
