I started having nightmares a few weeks ago. When I would log in here, my anxieties skyrocketed and still do. It overwhelms me. I do not know WHAT is setting me off, but I know that the problem lies within my perspective, not the behavior of anyone here.

I have to distance myself to manage this. I am doing everything I know to do to resolve it, but I am stuck. I have to allow my healing to pace itself. I hope that in time, I will become unstuck.

But, meanwhile, take care and never stop looking for the answers you need, carefully pacing yourselves along your way.

Thanks for checking in. I was a little worried about your disappearing. Not that you owe us anything, but i would hope that someone would notice if i disappeared!

Yeah nightmares are the worst. AFAIK, theres no med for it, and ive researched it some. If i have my recurring nightmare that i got back together with an ex and then had to break up again, i know it means i am falling back into a bad habit of not being accountable or responsible for something. I havent had a partner for 30 years, and i still have the nightmare, and sometimes its the first H from the late 1970's.

Take care. There is a lot of love for you here.

HappyCrafter,

Once we have figured out what went wrong, IMO there comes a time we have to stop looking back as much because we are rewounding ourselves when we do it. Yes, we do have to confess, change, forgive, etc. but there comes a time to take a break from it. Hugs.

Some of the things that have helped me with this is reading the Bible regularly, praying regularly and listening to Abraham Hicks (YouTube). Prayers to you!

Stay safe, Happy, and do what you need to do. This is a strange time for all of us, I think.

((( ♥️ HUGS ♥️ )))

We will miss you. Glad you were here for a time, you've been a very positive addition, perhaps you are just ready to move out into the larger world and fly. Keep writing & doing your good work.
