I'm sorry you've been having flashbacks DestroyMe. I hope they pass soon. Sorry Uglyducklin about the images and sensations. I'm struggling at the moment with intrusive thoughts and things repeating round and round my head. I just need some safe space.

There's nothing to be afraid of in this bubble Uglyducklin. *cuddles*

I feel realty scared , and have been feeling this way for a few nights. I'm scared of him and he's dead . I can't see a reason to feel this way.

My abuser is dead too but I still feel scared sometimes. Think this is normal. Sometimes our memories can still scare. *safe hugs*

Hey everyone,
big ups to the OP, this is a brilliant thread.
Struggling at the moment, was abused for seven years by my stepfather. Now it's six months later, was coping pretty well to start with, but now rapidly crumbling. Struggling with memories and what happened, the things he would say to me. Feeling so hopeless. I live with my fiance now too, but have added guilt and shame because I can see how my mood affects him, and feeling like I'm hurting him makes me feel like the worst person in the world.
Hugs I'm so sorry ljfowler . I am really struggling with the images in my head. They are violent . I desperately need to hurt myself. I'm crawling out my fat skin. How do I contain it ?
Thanks Uglyducklin and hugs returned x Sorry to hear of your struggle, I understand entirely how you are feeling. I have a history of SH myself, usually able to control it quite well but broke down the other day and returned to it. It's an odd thing, because the need is always there and so strong yet after I do it I am ashamed and regretful. Keep in mind that SH doesn't achieve anything positive in the long run and that you are strong enough to overcome anything life throws at you
new housemate is a smoker, his scent is triggering. i cant deal with this

Hi guys I agree with Petrichor , Sock I'm sure your flat ate won't mind. I am a total mess of urges. I don't deserve to reach out not even here . I'm slowly losing it . I don't want to be in this body anymore .
