    Hi @Chloe234

    I'm hearing that you are feeling triggered after hearing your half brothers voice. That sounds really difficult. How are you feeling now, do you have anyone you can talk to about it?

    sending big hugs @Chloe234 this sounds like such a tricky day <3

    Reminding yourself this evening that you are safe, and not around your half brother anymore can be help you to feel a little more settled. Maybe wrap up in something cosy and grab a nice warm drink?

    Or if you're still out, could you give yourself a bit of a breather outside for a minute to calm your body and just take a moment?

    stings so much but trying to braveface it, my fault for relapsing😔
    Feeling so low today, hate myself for relapsing.

    You don't have to hate yourself for relapsing. Sometimes relapsing can happen to us and it's easy to feel shame for it rather than forgiving ourselves for it happening. So don't feel bad for relapsing. Sometimes we need to forgive ourselves for it. It can be even harder too when you feel like you have hit a low point. Sending hugs,

    @Chloe234 It sounds overwhelming to feel this way. You've been so brave to share with us how you feel. Your thoughts and feelings are important to us and so are you.
    How are you coping at the moment?

    Hey @Chloe234, this sounds like a really tough phone call to have at anytime, especially over Christmas. You've been so brave sharing this with us and I just want to let you know that you're not alone and we're always here for you <3.

    How are you feeling right now? Have you been able to do some of @Emma_'s suggestions yet?

    Or has anything else helped that you'd be happy to share with us? Take care and look after yourself. And don't forget, we're here for you <3.
