Well yesterday, I grabbed the dog and pulled her out to walk...and walk...and walk. @BlueBay
I was so escalated and wanted everything to STOP.

@tyme
I feel like doing this tomo at my appt with my psych. In my head I’ve been wanting to do this for a while. But don’t know the real reason behind it.
it’s weird. im weird.
do you ever have these strange thoughts in your head that you really want to do?? Lately I’ve been having these thoughts that seem real, to huddle up in the corner on the floor of my drs room. I guess it’s like hiding away, fear of something.

Yes I do, but I feel it is related to impulsive thoughts and behaviours attributed to ADHD @BlueBay So I will fixate on thoughts and things I want to do.
It's not so much a trauma response.

i feel like I’m going crazy or more crazy
ive had an emotional session today with my psych. I had to stop a few times because I couldn’t get the words out as I was so emotional.

Oh those sessions are tough @BlueBay even though they can help they're also really emotionally draining and don't feel great afterwards.
Is there anything you can do to show yourself some extra love and care this afternoon after expressing such big emotions?
