Need to feel grounded

I need to eat some ice-cream and then read. I need to avoid some personal excessive habits leading to self-harm. I read a thread tonight which um, well. OOPS!

Am safe! Just a bit uncomfortable and I've got a slight headache and feeling a little restless/irritable. ah... Anyway...

Hi @Former-Member 😄🌷

Sounds like another difficult night for you. I am sorry 💕

 

I hope your attempts at grounding worked for you, and you were able to avert any self harm practices.

 

What is your favourite ice cream flavour?  I like to read too, as a distraction. But my eyes are not as good as they should be. So I now have an audio book subscription.

 

Hope you are okay sweetie.

Re: Need to feel grounded

@Emelia8 Thanks for your concerns! Yes the grounding practices did work but now I'm tired. Medication review was set up yesterday, will start my new program tomorrow morning, or whenever I'm told to start it, I guess. It should help with a few current mental health problems including insomnia yay!!! I will also find a bulk-billing psychiatrist who can help me a lot more.
I love chocolate ice-cream! I also like mixed flavoured ice-cream.

A toss up between Macadamia and Vanilla ice cream for me

Re: Need to feel grounded

I love ice cream and reading too @Former-Member especially rum and raisin.
