I’m sorry you are not doing well. I don’t know if this helps but you might want to tell the group what’s bothering you either by post or in private to members you are friend with for support.

It’s good that you are doing self-care which is important. It’s also good that you are eating to stay healthy. Hugs and support. I hope you feel better soon.

It sounds like this week was really hard on you, Marah, so your keeping up your self care, eating, and drinking peppermint is all the more laudable under the circumstances. Hope the weekend offers you time to settle your stomach down and get the rest you deserve now.

I had a dream that there was a tsunami in my hometown while I was at the beach with friends and our kids. And we are going Sunday should weather permit.
My ex was supposed to take over the title of the car he wanted over a year ago. I signed the title and mailed it to him to sign and take to the dmv. He never signed and took it anywhere. Then he gave then car to his sister who wrecked it and claimed $100 in damage while the other party claimed $250 in damage. It wasn’t insured by me because in my mind he was the registered owner but according to the state I was the registered owner. I’ve been waiting on a court date trying to get a judge to relinquish me of fault but covid19......so I had to pay the lein on the vehicle and increase my car insurance because I couldn’t renew my tags without doing so. No idea how I’m going to pay my bills this month. I guess it’s time to sell my ring. Not sure why I’ve been holding onto it. But I have been, and I don’t want to sell it.

What a rigmarole with the car, Marah. and how unfair for it to jack your car insurance rate up in the end. I get how finances would lead you to think about your ring as an asset that could give you some relief with bills right now, but as someone who went through divorce twice, I know a ring is more than an asset, in my case because I'm talking about my wedding ring. Promises made, promises broken, hopes unfulfilled, there was a lot of symbolism wrapped up in it, too. I don't know, but maybe it's that way for you, too.

Marsh, so proud of you that you did engage in self care. I understand hard week and is also learning self Care.

Hugs and congrats on the self-care:-) There's a lot going on, so... one breath at a time..

I know, Leo. Life's only manageable with overwhelming PTSD sometimes when we break it down to the smallest scale of problems possible, sometimes just one breath.

Gentle hug.... I hope that you can feel some peace soon.... xo

I at times forget to breathe and reading a few comments I agree just one breath can make a difference.
