I'm sorry to read you are feeling lost.

I was is a group program for awhile. One of the things they taught us was that weekends can be tough because we have no structure like we do during the week. We were always encouraged to have a plan.

What do you do to keep busy on the weekends? Do you have any hobbies etc that you enjoy?

What do you find the hardest? Are you alone?

Hi Letgo1,

I didn't like weekends right after my ptsd event, because I was alone and in a new country.

As long as I was around people at work or other events, education, sports, I managed to feel safe.

On the weekends I didn't have anyone around and the trauma hit me hard, I couldn't bear being alone.

Used to go for bike rides to be out the whole day but I couldn't escape that loneliness.

I wish you find something that makes you feel even a bit safer on the weekends.

When everything else failed, I put on the TV while I did the house cleaning and it made me feel like (pretend) I wasn't alone.

P.S. I also couldn't reach a therapist during the weekends/public holidays which was a major factor. Everything was closed.

Not what you're looking for?
