Rattled and Relief Starters
“You’re shaking, I can see it. It’s okay.”
“Get away get away… get away…”
“You’re not okay, please, let me help.”
“Stop it, no. Enough. STOP!”
“It’s okay, I’m here. You’re okay.”
“I just-I’m sorry I… I didn’t mean to react that way.”
“Did I… please tell me I didn’t hurt you.”
“We’re going somewhere safe.”
“No, no no no it’s all going wrong, we’re running out of time!”
“We’re gonna get through this, okay? Trust me?”
“It never really stopped… the shaking is always there…”
“Please don’t lie to me… tell me what’s wrong.”
“How about we just go somewhere quiet okay?”
“I know I’m not good at this but… I’m here.”
“You’re making it worse!”
“Why did you have to bring it up?”
“Hold onto me, you’ll be okay.”
“I want it to stop. It’s not stopping.”
“Don’t make me talk about it. Please don’t.”
“It’s alright… I get it, I do.”
“I’m back, like I promised.”
“Leave me alone-just leave me alone.”
“I’m coming closer, and I’m going to put my hand on your shoulder, alright?”
“You are safe. You are going to be safe.”
