NicholeParticipant
That really threw me off Anita!
NicholeParticipantYes it would. I am just so lost without sleep. I feel like I am losing myself. I have never had this problem in my life! I need sleep to function. Right now I’m just doubting reality.
NicholeParticipantNo I have tried but I cannot. And this is my main problem. The lack of sleep is making me disconnected from myself and my ability to feel. I know that I need to feel the pain of this before I can proceed. I haven’t cried and I haven’t forgiven myself or them yet and that has been my process of healing thus far. I am hoping to return to some kind of normal sleep pattern so I can come back to myself. I feel as though I’m doubting the reality of things and it’s scary. I believe I should have made the trip to Florida when I said so. I don’t want to get sucked into making amends with family when I am not ready to. I’d love to talk at some point but when I have come to peace with everything. And I haven’t. Thing is I reached out to my brother emotionally the other day and he has now been contacting me daily to talk. I am not sure if I should open up my feelings? I cannot take anymore invalidation. I do know you already suggested not to.
NicholeParticipantI am choosing to stop and bought some super b complex stress vitamins recommended by someone who used to get severe panic attacks and it helped. I cannot handle any more anxiety than I have. I am doing ok this morning. I got 4 hours of sleep with Xanax. Just wished I could get more. A natural sleep. I’m a little depressed but going to try and start my day!
NicholeParticipantI don’t think I’m taking Zoloft anymore. anxiety and depression out the roof! Is that normal?
NicholeParticipantI love the idea of all of this but am honestly so tired and exhausted physically to make any changes today. But am afraid to stay in this depression. What if it worsens!
Im hoping sleep tonight when I take only Xanax
NicholeParticipantI get that. I think I’m so nostalgic and wanting the relationship because I am really dissociated, I think it may be the lack of sleep or the fact that I suppressed my feelings so much recently. How can I change this? I’m trying to feel my feelings but nothing comes out the way I truly feel. The way my family treated me was devastating and hurtful, I should cry and scream and rage! I am telling you the way I felt in the days after my aunts death was disturbing. And I am so invalidated by people acting like nothing happened. I know this is what is hindering me in the moment. I know this is why I have so much anxiety in my body and tremors. How can I change this? Do I confront the people?
NicholeParticipantDo you see why I wonder if I’m to blame for some instances? I am highly codependent.
i have been to coda meetings but prefer al anon. Coda you don’t really discuss just individual share.
NicholeParticipantShould be taking it in the morning, right?
And not sure Anita, not sure how to make this right. Do you ever think my codependency plays a roll?
NicholeParticipantOk maybe I’ll do morning or maybe I’ll just stop? And take Xanax for sleep. I don’t need those side affects. I need sleep and to get back into routine.
Its so not fair, what I mean is exactly that. I was treated very poor recently even though I was only giving love and support. Nothing was appreciated, instead I was the scapegoat of my family. And now I’m suffering
NicholeParticipantSo should I just switch it up and take in morning? I asked pharmacist and he told me both at night. I have not just taken Xanax. I was going to do that last night but decided on both.
I honestly don’t deserve this!
No one does!
My family caused me so much stress during this time of my aunts death that they are nearly making me sick!
My aunt and late aunts husband really affected me mentally and my brothers were the cherry on top!
Im so sad that I allowed myself to give away so much energy and get so stressed in this way. I was feeling so healthy. Eating better, sleeping better, fasting and now I’m a damn zombie who can’t understand life. So not fair!
NicholeParticipantI am taking sertraline, the generic of Zoloft. And yes Xanax. The bottle says at bedtime I took that two days ago and slept. Last night no sleep, high anxiety and stress and tremors! What is happening to me. I feel like this last situation sent me over the edge and now my body is not recovering. I don’t know what to do I’m frightened it will never get better.
NicholeParticipantI didn’t sleep at all! That’s with taking Zoloft and Xanax. I feel so unhealthy. Body tremors and my head is vibrating in some places! Sorry if I couldn’t concentrate too much on all that you wrote. I am so stressed. I was doing so well for myself before all of this. Not well but best I ever had and now I am just a mess. No sleep, not even with Xanax? What can I do? My body feels shaky and I am so dazed.
NicholeParticipantOk you scared me with STD!
I don’t want just any man, I was on such a good path loving myself before all of this and wasn’t even thinking of a man. I know I have to be healed and healthy first. And I want to be but I am hurting. I think I just need a break from everything! I’m emotionally exhausted and sleep deprived. I never feel like doing anything. I am in bed as we speak. Counting down the hours to my medication so I can sleep and hopefully wake up renewed! I miss my motivation and self love. Afraid I won’t get it back after the trauma I’ve been through. Why is it that what I went through was so bad for me, I know it was. I was pure anxiety and my body jolting but yet I can’t seem to remember or remind myself that I don’t deserve it. Why is that I am recalling times I could have done things differently? I mean after all I could have right? I am not perfect either. I tell you a lot about what these people do what if I myself am doing something as well?
Just thoughts.
should I reach out to my cousins? Someone to maybe validate me?
NicholeParticipantAny man I guess. I’m lonely
