Dissociative mind in crisis ***triggering***

[allgirlfighter]

Amazing. It is exactly what I need right now to express myself. When I showed it to my psychiatrist, silence filled the room. Thank you for giving me the ability to communicate that which I have struggled to find the words to explain where I am - in crisis. I am comforted to know I am not alone. Sad that I am.

@allgirlfighter I'm glad the video helped. I'm sorry you're in crisis though, I hope the psychiatrist could offer some help after you showed them the clip and explained what was happening for you.

Please take care and reach out for help if it's needed,

Sophie

Thanks, This video is very accurate when overwelmed and in crisis...I can so relate to much of it; you make really good videos. I wish i had your courage to make a video of my parts and how i coped along the way. Keep up the good work and hopefully your not in crisis now. Thanks Again.

[castorgirl]

@skittles835 do what you can, and what feels comfortable for you and your parts. Sometimes it's good to challenge the resistance to doing things, and sometimes that resistance is there for a good reason. Listen to your instincts.

Take care,

Sophie :)

Thanks for this. It helps a lot to understand.

I can't believe I haven't watched this video of yours before! It is very excellent. Very accurate. And very useful, a quick way to explain to a non-multiple/dissociative what goes on in the mind. The images you used are just perfect. (and thanks for putting a trigger warning) Putting it in my faves for quick referencing :)

Thanks for making this video. It's so accurate to how it feels. Hope you are well :-)

@IrishGurl6587 Thanks :) We've just had a few rough weeks, but we're hanging in there... Hope you're ok :)

Take care,

Sophie

[castorgirl]

Sophie :)

This is really helpful to me. Thank you. I write in words now about the kinds of experiences you expressed in this video. But your video makes much more sense and says it much better. I somehow must have missed this video when I started looking at your channel a month or so ago. Thanks again. Paul.

[castorgirl]

I'm glad it helped Paul. Sometimes I have the words for what is happening in my head, sometimes I don't. Any way in which we can express what's happening without hurting ourselves or others has got to be good...

Take care

Sophie :)

I met a lady in the psych ward and she was there six years later when I returned. She has always been in constant crisis and needs to be there cause she can't deal with flashbacks etc..

[infinitycastle]

wow that's really powerful. it must have been hard to make.

Hi Jess,

Thank you.

It kept us focused on something, so that was good. But it took us 4 days to do this one as the switching was so out of control.

It was a hard clip to do, but necessary to try and get some of the rubbish out.

Take care

Sophie & others.

[infinitycastle]

it really gives off that kind of essence of switchiness because it moves very quickly from one thing to another. i thought it was very powerful, but when i thought about it some more it was like the pain side of it kind of hit me then like a bolt of lightning. safe hugs.

jess

[castorgirl]

Thank you Jess...

Really needed that right now :'(

Safe hugs back

Sophie and the others.

[infinitycastle]

this time of year is such a hard time for so many, i think there can never be too many safe hugs among friends!

I feel for you dear. Making self-expression films like this is a good way to deal with the pain. You are in my prayers castorgirl.

[castorgirl]

Thank you.

[cheekyleopard]

I know how that feels, having your mind pulled a thousand different ways.

Stay strong castorgirl.

[castorgirl]

Thank you.

[blackblood11789]

sorry you're struggling

[castorgirl]

Thank you.

...a subliminal message... ?

[castorgirl]

Not intended to be a subliminal message for anyone. I have a dissociative disorder with suicidal ideation present at varying levels. At the moment this is what my mind is doing.

[susa48]

Very expressive... it seems that we're in similar places right now... just switching like a rolodex and the self persecutor one of us is overpowering others at present.... Please hang in there... I will too... it will get better. It has to.

Good work. It is cathartic, isn't it?
