Emotional storms

Do u guys have times when everything falls apart and your left in a super negative emotional state? Lately I’ve been doing decent with my triggers and moods but today a few things caught me off guard and I ended up in a familiar state of suffering.

After some time… meditation and self message the storm of emotions passed. Because it passed so quickly and I didn’t let the winds of the storm completely blow my house down it seems like a thunderstorm just passed in my mind. This feels better than being stuck with negativity that I didn’t cause or want for hours.

Feel like if I can keep up with meds and stay away from the toxic influence in my life maybe I won’t have to always suffer a lot when things go wrong or people are unkind to me :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m just in a crap mood all the time and not interested in anything. I think it’s my med. It’s been like this for months.

Yes i have imbalance mentally and bad moods thoughts and triggers can make me suffer for hours. I struggle with this a lot. Ive got bpd though and that is certainly a good label for what i go through all the time, it makes me unstable and poor judgement so yeah i have a good idea what you mean

Yea …I’ve read a lot of your posts and I definitely relate to your situation. I think I have BPD type symptoms from feeling psychologically abused. Bending back and forth Soo many times eventually changes your brain…at least that’s my experience.

We can’t give up ducky. We’ve come this far …let’s still hope for the best?

Borderline personality or its called Eupd (emotionally unstable personality disorder)

But im a bit of a strange case because i haven’t felt much emotions in a long time , im numb, but i still have mood swings mentally and its like throughout my life ive had trauma and a lot of stress so now im paying the price mentally not good. I have sz as well so im a strange concoction of paranoia, intrusive thoughts etc and these confused mood swings that can last all day or days

I try to write things down that help me through it. Pointers and i talk to hubby and crisis or nurse. This helps but i get so overwhelmed sometimes still

Ive come to accept a lot of it is mental illness. Theres little i can do other than do what i can , when i can and take the meds.

I feel for you. It sounds like your going through the agony sometimes too. Idk everyday feels like an uphill struggle

Take care!
