Triggering (SI) - Worries

[Fionas little world]

I want to cut. I'm not sure about the new site and as stupid as it may sound, it's made me feel nervous. Not knowing where things are on here has made me anxious. I feel unstable and thinking about anything right now makes me overwhelmed and makes my heart go funny. On the other hand, blocking things out just makes them come back bigger.
Bleugh.
This place kind of reminds me of Ruin.... hmmm... I'll have to get used to it.
Take care all.

I don't think its not stupid at all. ((hug))

Any kind of change is unsettling. Especially when its part of your support system, what is part of your 'secure base'. Its kind of like when your therapist or counsellor moves office.

You have a good insight there about blocking things out making them larger in the end. Its a matter of finding balance, and being extra gentle with yourself as you explore the new space and find a place for yourself in it.

And, if you need help in finding your way around, or support in negotiating your feelings, you are welcome to use Live Help or the ryl email or pm any of us staff folks who've been around here a little while. Same goes for anyone. :)

Oh God! I know! I was about to make a support post because I had such a hard time getting used to the site. It's not silly at all-it's been part of my life for a year-and right now it's my own crutch against self harm. Don't worry Darlin', you'll get to used to it. If you're having trouble now-why not just email live support-that's still the same I believe.

Hope you're okay
