Anyone having a day of feeling like they are about to fall off the cliff of sanity?..

[Poshwellies]

Having a ultra stressful few days ,dd was assaulted at school and then yesterday I was involved in a minor accident which has triggered some bad memories/feelings of impending doom.

My head is whooshing with odd thoughts and lots of anxiety (palps,feeling sick,shakey).I have that horrible creeping feeling of negativity and blackness.I want to hide and not see or speak to anyone,it's reminding me of when I was very mentally ill with depression.

I'm hoping this is just a reaction to some shitty horrible days and will pass,I don't want to burden DH with my 'black' thoughts.

Urghhh.

Hanging in there TBE.

Spent too much time on here today,trying to waste the day away.Luckily dh is off for the week and has been a star doing school runs,cooking and bathtime for ds.

I'm hoping it's just stress and shock and it will get better in the next few days.

Sorry to hear that you've had a crap day too.

Someone once said to me that the good times cant last forever, so neither can the bad. I try to think of this when I have a crap time- like I am now. I've had some great years recently, after my narcisist ex husband left dd and me, but the wheel has turned and ex has split from girl friend so he's punishing me for not having him back- planning a holiday in same resort at same time as dd and me with his new girlfriend-who insists on buying lots of pressies for dd at mo, and he's contacted my employer and informed them of all the details of breakdown I had seven years ago in minute detail-so now i'm having a hard time at work with bullies who know what buttons to press.
All you can do is try to stay positive and see light rather than the black that some people may want to to see at the end of the tunnel.
Advise to do essential things is good- cleaning in a methodical way always works for me, (and clearly gets up ex's nose as it shows I'm coping)And, as I read on another thread, the karma bus will role right in sooner or later.

worldexwife - Nice to read such a possitive post for someone going through so much! What a horrible, horrible ex you have! I think I would have killed him off by now Seriously though, where does he get off treating you this way and doing those things! I am so glad you are coping with it all - and you are so right the karma bus will be along soon enough, I hope it gets him good!!!!!!!!

Have a nice day x x x

I do hope so- takes up alot of energy trying to stay positive- and it doesn't work all the time-I have some very negative thoughts that have to be countered with ideas like the ones on my last post or 'just enjoy the moment' type thoughts.ex's behaviour going from bad to worse but just keep telling myself at least it's not 24/7.
