so for a long time, I was very caught up in my own issues and some traumatic situations. honestly things have felt pretty unrelenting since I was 14/15. now I’m 22 and I’ve made a lot of positive changes over the past several months, but I can’t shake this sense of dread. on the one hand, I’m not constantly freaking out about my life as much as I used to. on the other hand, I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop. little things make me spiral lately, like I’m waiting for everything to fall apart again. I’ve been in therapy since I was 15 and probably need to see someone new at this point. my current therapist has helped a lot with my anxiety. but I’ve been more stuck since I started addressing more complex trauma. idk if anyone has any advice, I’m just sick of feeling so on edge lately 🤷

I can relate. Personally, it was the mainly the PTSD made me feel like waiting for the other shoe to drop. It really just takes time but you’ll get there! It helps to be away from your big PTSD triggers or people that really trigger you. Trauma/abuse therapist can help idk if your therapist is trauma based or not. Praying!
