I feel so inadequate to give advice and such a screw up to accept any

Hi all,

feeling bad and feeling sad

not trying to write a poem

Hi Stressless, 

What to do? You have already done it. Talk to us. Tell us what has been happening. 

I am sitting here on my bed, watching the sun dry through my now golden hair and hoping that Sydney is out there somewhere enjoying the sunlight too. I hope she is ok.

Hi GA,

I hope it's true for you that blondes have more fun and really hope Sydney is on her way home.

I spoke to my psych on Thursday and have been more upset and confused than ever.

I literally owe this person my life. I am torn between his advice and that of my friends here on BB.

Hi Stressless

Wow, this psyche of yours must have produced one hell of a session for you on Thursday.  And not a good one by the sound of it.  😞

I'm guessing that this is the person who thinks you perhaps shouldn't come on this site?

And again, I know we can't determine which path you want to take;  all I can say, is that whenever you post here, your friends will rally around you, as best we can.

At this time, I really don't quite know what else to say as something has obviously been stirred up for you big time and now you're having to wrestle with things and when this happens, well, it's just not a fun time at all.

We're here for you Ess Elle

Hi Neil,

Yes you are right on all counts.

our session was on the phone and yes it was intense

yes he is the person that doesn't want me to come on here as he says I can't deal with issues raised here as opposed to face to face with him

I have been in denial for a long time and only recently have started facing certain things .The trouble is issues that come up here with other people , I find also apply to me and I can't cope.

Hi Stressless

You know what you're saying about being on here and then feeling like you can't cope - that's how I feel sometimes.

And I was having the same thought - maybe I shouldn't be on here as well.  I haven't really spoken to my psych about this but I'm not really sure what to do.

But Stressless, you know that we are all here for you and will always support you, no matter, we are your friends here because we care about you.

I know your life hasn't been easy and being in denial for certain things is I believe a way of trying to cope, that's another thing I do.

I hope you can stay on, but I understand totally if you don't. It's just that we would miss you.

Take care

Hi Ess Elle,

Well, you've got me totally stumped now.  I've danced down the wicket and you spun the ball past my bat, and I'm out - GAWN.  Sorry, bit of a cricket analogy there.  But that's due to your reply - because it sort of gestures toward you perhaps not coming on here too much more - or - um, I'm not really sure.

I guess that can be a big issue for so many people who are on this site - and to read of others terrible experiences, and when we're not in a very sturdy frame of mind, it can really impact. 

So that's why I'm stumped, because I really have nothing to offer you in this instance, because I can totally see the thoughts had by your psyche.   I can also see the thoughts of me and SO MANY others where we don't want you to go.  Hence, why I guess you're so confused at the moment.  And by me writing this, most probably isn't helping you one bit, so I'll shut up for the time being.

Hi Neil ( again sorry)

By trying to not say too much I have made it worse and more confusing

My psych s rationale is that when we have a session we  may stir things up but at least we can try and deal with it there and then as opposed to  things that come up on line

I have recently remembered something from my past that I had obviously blocked out, because of someone's post that was exactly  like my story.

something I had suppressed all my life. I am scared of the road I am taking and not sure where to go from here. I love the support I get here as I can't talk to my psych everyday, but am I making myself worse?

I don't know

I'm scared

Dear Ess Elle

I'm really hearing you, my friend - that you are really scared by this.  It's definitely not a good situation for you to be experiencing.

I feel pretty much helpless that I'm unable to give out any advice in this situation for you.

The only thing I can respond with is:   with regard to the recent post that has bought back so many unpleasant memories/experiences for you - firstly I feel so bad for you that this has happened.  BUT secondly, with you reading this are there any possible positives that you may draw out of this?   Where the person who has posted, has obviously had people respond to their message - and with that, are you able to draw any advice/help/anything out of that??

I guess I'm really clutching at straws here and the straws aren't very long.  😞

Dear Stressless

I am sorry that someone's post has caused you so much pain with reliving one of your memories that you had suppressed.

I just hope it wasn't my post because I know that our stories are very similar.  But you know you need to do what's best for you and your mental, physical and emotional health.

But as Neil suggests hopefully the replies from others on that post may give you something positive to think of or look at.

Pls take care, I am worried about you

Jo xx
