Hey again! When you settle down in bed to sleep, try counting backwards from a 1000. A doctor taught me. And another method I was taught is: You lay on a bed on your back. Not covered by warm layers. You lay with your limbs loose and start by taking deep breaths and holding them briefly exhale easily. At the same moment sense your feet imagine a energy of warmth in each and gradually creeping up each leg and from each hand flowing up your arms and flowing towards your torso and settling. Still continue to do the breathing exercise and now picture something in your minds eye or recall a place that is a relaxing, easy and happy while still doing the breathing exercise. This process should not require great effort, just the process of each component is required. Try this every time you lay to sleep, not just when you struggle to. Worked for me I was taught by a psychologist. :)

It's so good to see you are taking steps in the right direction. Mentle health is such a long road, but know you are doing everything you can be, and it's ok for it to be a slow process. I totally also understand the wanting of tattoos at a hard time. I got my first when I was going though a bit of a rough pach, and I can't believe how therapeutic it was! It was like all that pain helped escape some of the pain I was holding on the inside, and now I have some beautiful work. Just keep doing what you are doing ❤

@howlite I don't think I realized how long it would be.. it's definitely more slow going than I first anticipated but there'sno point rushing this I guess. I know! I got a tattoo last week and the wave of relief that came over me as soon as she started tattooing was so intense I felt lighter and happier walking out of there it was crazy!

I was planning on writing a huge catch up blog. I even started writing it up in word as I do before pasting it here.. But it got crazy long like 4 pages in and I was like damn.. This is so fucking long and that had NO photos! SO I'm keeping it simple and mostly photos..
