Idk what's going on with me

I just feel like my soul is in convulsion. I can't do anything. I can't think. Meanwhile i have thousands of thoughts per second. Espessially after my last trauma an year ago i'm losing it, i was even before that. Visited numerous proffesionals and i feel like i'm drowning. My head is so foggy and tourmented

Dear Glonk,I'm very sorry to hear how distressed you feel and can relate to this well, from my previous experience.

Finding a way forward can feel so difficult, and a torment, often overwhelming.

There is hope and my only advice at this time is to keep yourself visiting and connecting with Nature. Going outdoors, getting fresh air, walking new or even old paths.

It can be a terrible time and I understand fully the pain and distress that over-anxiety and thoughts can cause.

If found solace in a few things: piano/music, Nature/gardening, pets, swimming. That's it - yet I built a new timeframe for myself based on those factors alone, so that I could allow myself to breathe and cope.

I hope and wish for you, also, that you allow yourself breathing space (and permission if relevant) to trust in just a few things, that will and can help sustain you through this awful, difficult time.

Sending you love and luck... though it's perhaps more about commitment, once trust in ourselves (and ergo, luck) has been attempted.

Hi GlinkaI’m having one of those moments myself again but I’ve gone a few weeks not. I only just started social media and realised that messes my head up! So I too just sit somewhere quiet and try to focus on that one thing.. the warmth of a hot drink, picking out one sound, I try and cover all my senses as I’m very sensory alert and need to calm my brain. The old breathe in for four, hold breath for four and breathe out still helps too.

Good luck, you’re not alone. Take care

Oh yes, i get overwhelmed too and so grateful you reminded me to me mindful. Take care too
