    Yes of course it is to let someone know you feel let down by them, I am also sorry to hear you feel let down, you don't deserve to feel like that! If you feel slightly anxious to tell someone, take a trusted adult or friend with you, or you could write then a email about it!

    Sending my love,

    Leila

    Hi Ellie,

    It sounds like you're feeling let down right now. This sounds difficult, so sending love and support your way. If you'd like to share more about what it is that you're feeling let down about, please know that we are here to listen

    I agree with Leila. You deserve to feel heard and supported, it's okay to voice your feelings if you feel you would like to. Take good care :heart:

    Telling people how you feel takes courage so this shows a lot of strength - well done :blush: You mention you think the world is ending. This sounds like a really tricky feeling. I wonder if you know what it is that makes you feel that? I also wonder whether you have any coping strategies to cope with these feelings?

    Thanks for sharing this with us @ellie2000. It takes a lot of strength to open up the way you have.

    It sounds really difficult for you that you got raped, tied up and abused. It is understandable that you are still struggling today.

    In terms of your question "r hallucinations normal with ptsd?", the NHS provides this information about what PTSD may look like. Though, it is important to remember that PTSD affects everyone in different ways and to acknowledge how you feel and what you experience.

    It is really positive to hear you know some things which might help you - for example, playing games and keyboard for music for distraction. I am hearing that these don't always help though, especially when you are too far gone. In response to question "is tht healthy?" - how does going to bed until it passes feel for you?

    Some supports that might be able to help you further include:

    Please keep us in the loop with how you are feeling. We are all here for you :)

    Hi Ellie,

    I am sorry you feel like doing bad things, can I ask are you feeling safe at the moment? If not, please reach out!
    How are things going for you? Do you have enough support around you as you deserve to be supported especially with these tough thoughts,

    Leila
