Avoidant Personality Disorder Grid

Nov 17, 2011 23:37

I have a mental illness called avoidant personality disorder (AvPD). I'm keeping this grid on my bedside table to help deal with that and the other mental issues I have, including depression, anxiety, and a fear of rejection and complex PTSD, to name a few. I've just started my healing process and having this grid here means I can touch/play with the stones when I need comfort (which is mostly when I'm upstairs, as I can't have a breakdown downstairs), and having it be so close to me means it can help me deal with these issues.





All the stones in the grid are there to help me overcome the abuse and CPTSD, to deal with the anxiety and depression, and to help with issues that came out of the AvPD and/or CPTSD such as issues communicating.

The stones in this grid are:
Lithium quartz: Lithium quartz is a high-vibrational stone and the same lithium that is contained in these stones is the same mineral used in the anti-depresants
Clear quartz: Clear quartz is a "blank" stone, meaning it can do anything you program it to do. I've programmed these crystals to help keep the grid clear of negative energy
Selenite with florite: As I mentioned with my room cleansing grid, selenite is a soothing stone that is very helpful for abuse survivors. The florite tip helps open the selenite and the other stones, to help the energies flow more freely.
Rose quartz: besides being "my" stone, rose quartz helps promote self-love.
Light and dark goldstone: Goldstones are also feel-good, soothing stones. These stones also promote openness and honesty.
Malachite: Malachite is a stone of transformation and good for healing.
Mookaite: Mookaite is used to boost self-esteem and ward off depression.
Amethyst: Amethyst will help you overcome anything you put your mind too. It's also a good healing and soothing stone. Amethyst is also the birth stone of my Primary husband, Gabriel.
Sodalite: This stone helps create inner harmony, as well as helps develop logic, which I need when emotions run high.
Lepidolite: This stone also helps foster self-love. Lepidoite also helps alleviate anger and tension, and is used to help anxiety, as well as other mental disorders.

I arranged the main grid in two circles, because to me, circles symbolize wholeness and I've felt broken for so long. Circles are...complete to me and I want to become complete as a person. That cloth is important to me. It was the first thing I ever sewed on my own and it makes me happy to use it and have it out. Its a little hard to see the stones because the cloth is busy. It's not as bad in real life.
