Tables have turned

I was feeling baseline for the past few weeks and suddenly out of the blue feel so stupid and worthless. I have been working on dissociative issues and therefore thinking a lot about my PTSD (childhood abuse). I feel dizzy and sick to to my stomach. Can anyone relate to this? I know this will pass, but self harm is always a temptation when I am like this. I won't do it, but cant help but obsess about it.

Do anything that calms you down and slows your breath. Swimming? It is ok to feel bad, it is ok to have bad days. They won't last forever - you will be feeling better very soon, you know that from past experience. It is ok to have bad feelings about yourself but you also know they don't accurately reflect who you are. Perhaps you could talk to a close friend who could tell you about the more positive person t hey experience when they are around you.

I just saw this castillo so I'm sorry I didn't respond earlier. I hope you went to your pdoc and/or therapist. These symptoms are not good and could even be linked to your meds which makes it even more complicated. How are you doing now?

Hi-thanks for the reply. I am feeling much better. I was under a lot of stress when I wrote that post. Some of that has gone away.

Good castillo. If the issues get worse again I hope you will post. Are you working through the issues with the therapist? If so it's very important that he/she know it was making things more stressful and depressing for you.

Please keep us informed.
