i am having therapy for complex ptsd and personality disorder and have been struggling in past week as my therapist has been away. i been reaching out on here because i live alone.
i have a history of verbal emotional physical abuse, DV and maybe sexual abuse (perpetrated by a minor) and it has been going on for years. i am in a safe place now physically, but i often feel anxious emotionally. and a bit raw.
i wonder if there is anyone here who feels similar to me and if so how do you cope? i have had a problem with se;f injury and suicide and have been using Dialectical Behavioural Therapy to cope but sometimes i feel i need someone to validate my experiences and memories? How do you cope when you have nobody to help you do that??? i need ot be able to get this from myself not from others?
i should be in bed but for some reason i struggle to sleep well it is hot here and there have been wildfires.
