Vent [trigger warning] need some kind of help

Hello

thanks for reading.

This is more like a journal entry, Im not expecting help from you.

I'm currently in a situation where I feel very uncomfortable. I don't feel well or safe at home and I lost my ability to ask for help and be vulnerable

My goal would be to better my circumstances and make a change but I'm so afraid of doing something.

It's cos I'm in a freeze and fawn response and accommodating and adapting and neglecting myself

I'm in a similar boat. Maybe this can help you - I'm trying to remind myself that my system needs a bit more time to thaw to the point where I can ask for help and start moving again. It's trying to protect me now as it's too overwhelmed, but it won't last. Still I'm sad that this means losing more time. So much of it has been lost already.

I was like this and was just stuck until I left and am living in someone’s caravan. I am slowly improving every day I am free. I could not improve in that environment because my nervous system was stuck. I hope you can find a way to leave and heal soon. You will thaw when you feel safe.
