I reached out to an older friend of mine today. They came and took my gun out of my apartment. I wasn’t even tempted to use it that way but my thoughts have been dark lately and I’m trying to do everything possible to keep myself safe while also not going to the hospital.
I wish people knew how much pain I’m in every day. How the flashbacks feel so consuming. How my body doesn’t even feel like it belongs to me.
That’s a very good friend. Please reach out for extra help. You may need med adjustment to help you cope. I needed it when I was having constant flashbacks. There’s no shame in needing and asking for help
