Day 37.

Another mixed day of emotions.

I have felt highly irritated all day and so have most peers in the castle.  Overall all the peers were just irritating each other and a lot of negative energy with stupid rumours was flying around the castle.

As I was irritated today, I found it hard to concentrate and distanced myself from my peers in my free time.

I shared my step 3 in the group and got good feedback again.  It was comforting to discuss how I am surrendering to God and I feel more than ready for Step 4.  I forgot about the part I missed in Step 2, so will try to share this tomorrow.

Trauma group, we talked about grounding and different ways of grounding yourself, mentally and physically.  Some of which I will be putting into practice.  I also need to create a safety plan.

The AA book reading ‘ For the Wives’ was interesting and I spoke about how this story relates to ‘Bills Story’.

I also helped a fellow peer out today with some step work, as they were stuck and needed to get their head around it.

Tomorrow is another day, hopefully, calmer and less irritated.
