All the events in the news

And the protests are stirring up memories.

I am worried about a black transwoman I adore I don't want her being hurt by racists and transphobes stirring up shit during the BLM protests. She is one to tear a racist or transphobe a dozen new assholes.
She has dealt with a lot of terrible shit.
But she's in Baltimore and I am stuck 45 minutes away and no car. And I am worried.

I'm just worried for her.

Had a flashback earlier.
About my roommate in one residential psych program I was in. Wrote in gd about it. I feel better but the residual stuff remains like my stomach is upset I still feel it even though I am calmer.

I have been having flashbacks I have to force them out of my mind and it doesn't always work.

It's happened several times today.

I'm so tired.
I want to sleep
Guess I'll try it again.

Thanks for being here .

I have flashbacks too...so I understand when it happens how bad it can be.

Sending love your way.
