Re: I'm back
No shower or cup of tea can't be bothered. Don't want to face the world anymore.

Re: I'm back
We all have regrets. Some people with MI may well struggle with impulse control. And it can be hard to remember to breathe and calm down as much as possible before we react or speak.
But you are kind to others. You try not to hurt others. But you do hurt yourself a lot.
LifeLine or CAT could help when you are struggling the most. Or you can keep talking to us here.
I'm sorry you are struggling so hard.
What can you do right now - right this minute to refocus on?
A cup of tea. Making sandwiches for tomorrow's lunch. Having a shower. Knitting.
What can you do now?
I'm sending you a big long supportive hug.♥♥

Re: I'm back
Sorry I went offline @BlueBay
Find a bodily position where you feel safe. I tend to rock a lot and curl up in foetal position. I emerge when I feel well again .. well often I need to do other things ... but eventually I can find my calm peaceful place inside.
Do you have a safe place in your home for when you are feeling like this? Hospital can be great for respite and to learn things.
I often just thought ahead to my next appointment .. only a couple of days.
