Title: Waiting for hospitalization.. Update
Post by: Rizzo on September 25, 2024, 03:10:39 PM
Hi, this is Rizzo here.
I wrote a post about waiting to be hospitalized. So I was finally hospitalized. I'm in a psychiatric ward for women with CPTSD due to sexual trauma. I'm trying to help myself after a difficult period of flashbacks, dissociation, and nightmares.
I won't be able to put into words the pain I'm feeling right now.
I feel like everything is too much for me.  That this life is too much for me.
But for the people I love, I will stay strong... At least I will try as much as I can.
I feel safe here. There's another girl with me in the ward. This is a special place for girls like me... I'm glad I have this safe place in the world.
But the pain... the pain is unbearable. I'm experiencing flashbacks that I feel are eating me alive.
I'm trying so hard to move on and continue with my day but it's too hard.
Trying not to take a lot of SOS pills... but it's hard.
Thank you for your time and listening.
Wishing all of us better days.  :grouphug:
