i dont have a safety plan. the dissociation has been happening for a while, but has gotten worse over last few week. sometimes its just minor, like now, parts of me dont feel attached, like my feet when i walk dont feel part of me, or my hands while im typing, but then i get spells where i 'flip' as my husband calls it and i lose touch with reality totally. changing character, not recognising my husband or my surroundings etc. and there really is no warning for when this is going to happen. but tonight, i can just sense that it may well happen, if you understand me. it scares me.

Hi Wendy :). 33 isn't old. Sorry to hear your struggling. Do you want to talk about it what's bothering you?
How is everyone?
I'm still struggling with the same thing as yesterday. And someone just left my house after saying so many times 'oh you've lost so much weight... Your so skinny... You hair has become so brittle'. So now I'm even more wound up and trying so hard not to OD.

Haha I remember paper-wings too Hellooooo if you read this!
I'm sorry you struggling so much Tinkles with the thoughts about your Mum and now with the insensitive comments about your weight. Do you have anything to distract yourself?
Welcome to the thread Jo :) It's nice to see you here.
Wendy do you have any techniques that can get you back to reality, like grounding techniques. I believe a couple of pages ago someone posted a link to some grounding techniques. My therapist recommends splashing your face with cold water to ground yourself and bring you back to reality.
*hugs Tinkles* I'm sorry your struggling so much, but you are being really strong resisting the urges to OD. And I remember paper wings.
how is everyone?
