Anxiety & Memories

It’s been a day for anxiety and bad memories. I volunteered for an event to help foster kids go school shopping (I’m a former foster kid) and when I got there I couldn’t get out of my car. My memories from being in foster care and some other traumatic childhood memories came flooding to mind and I found myself paralyzed in my car unable to bring myself to get out. I ended up sitting there for 45 minutes before I finally just left and never even went inside. WTH?!?! I didn’t drink over it but it’s had me messed up all day!! Thanks for listening!

Things take time, regardless of what has happened you are a very strong individual. Never forget that, you are always healing and learning and growing. Be kind to yourself, all is well.:peace_symbol::heart:
