@Former-Member - hello, just hiding away at this point of time, feeling overwhelmed, got a dietian appointment and I’m dreading it. I sorta slept but I tossed and turned all night. I’ve got my weighted teddy which is helping me soothe. Im safe though

Hey there @Fluttershy1 💜
Glad youve got weighted teddy to help you soothe - it's important to do things that help you get some soothing sweetness 🙂
Totally understandable to be feeling like hiding away and things are overwhelming; there's a lot your physical and emotional self has gone through, and recovery takes time... I can really relate to what's happening, and I went through something very similar xx
How did the appointment go? I hope there was something helpful from it xx
Go gently, and always remember we are holding space and sitting with you 💜
