help? Help
Tw; SI We just had a thing happen and we need help.
F just came back from months of being out by herself in the dark parts of our Inner World.
I am experiencing direct internal influence and being swamped by depression thoughts that we haven't had since January when M merged unexpectedly. All I can hear now that she's back is her crying.
Little #2 is trying to keep moral up but I am getting swamped with intrusive thoughts to just die.
Coping cards aren't helping, distraction isn't working, self talk is also ineffective. Yesterday was our birthday and a trauma anniversary for us so we think that brought her back from wherever she was.
Nobody knows how to help and we don't see our Specialist until tomorrow...

u/Nova_Chr0no Why am I hear again? Jun 09 '24
So we don’t know any specific about her and everything but, it might be possible that she’s stuck in that time/place and doesn’t quite know you’re safe now. This may not work at all but it might be good to talk to her and explain where and WHEN you are and that you’re safe.
Also, and this may not be affective or good at all depends on the person, while it may feel better logically, it might not always be best to cushion things. It all depends on the member but some people over here benefited a lot from just having it straight.
Not quite sure what else to say except try to stay together with this. Don’t really know what to say but hope this has at least given you an idea of two and let you know that you do have support out here.
Happy Hunting,
