[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 106734, member: 2211"] {{{ww}}} Hugs, hon, I'm so sorry you're feeling so upside down and inside out. I think Heather is right also - you're just so overtaxed that you're seeking comfort wherever and in whatever way you can. Don't beat yourself up over it - it's good that you at least have recognized it. easy child used to become very overwhelmed and her head break out in psorriasis and she began having panic attacks. At the time that it was most severe she was seeing her old boyfriend who was a maniac about keeping in touch with her. She could hardly focus on herself or anything she needed to get done because she was always being barraged by texts or phone calls. I finally made the suggestion to tell him he can't text her and that she needed at least 2 nights a week to herself. It was very hard, but she did it and after the first week, there was a marked difference in her. She seemed more relaxed and happier - boyfriend was not, but oh well. Definitely turn off all the ways in which people can take from you when you're unable to give, such as the text, cell, emails, and put on the answering machine. Bottom line is that you need to find ways to cope and nurture yourself without seeking it from others. And that's something you can ask your therapist to help you with. It is not easy, but in time you can get healthier in the ways in which you care for yourself. I will keep you in my thoughts. Hugs~ [/QUOTE]
