Boy I can relate to the whole unable to experience emotions thing; I was like a rock with no emotion, then my aunt commented on it and I started reading books on PTSD and sexual abuse and started yawning a lot and then voila a socially acceptable level of emotional display haha. I still am...
It could be dissociative PTSD. A member that was on here said he would have delusions with his PTSD. And I sometimes feel people can hear what I'm thinking cuz I'm having a conversation with them in my head. but then realize it's not true. Have they told you what it is?
Hi. Welcome!! Love this place because you are not alone! Someone understands! It's awesome for that along with coping tools and information. Hope you find what you need!
I feel your response is warranted considering the delusions. Being recently stalked and obsessed over, I could hardly sleep, always hearing noises, jumpy, avoiding. Stalking sucks!! Thank you for helping her!!!
You may have dissociative PTSD or DID. What helps me in that situation is to realize that I have PTSD and work on that because the treatment can also help with DID. Worrying is going to happen with all the dissociative symptoms so it can't be helped. The only thing to do would be getting an...
I am so sorry you are going through this!!!! I have had problems holding it all in my whole life and with needing to get there immediately. I end up looking at the bottom shelf in the grocery store and trying to deal until there is a bathroom. Also when talking to a therapist about trauma had...
I don't think you have to accept a terminal illness, just accept what your sister wants. I didn't ever accept my grandfather's. It will be what it will be. I found that the more I care for others in life, the easier it is to grieve their death. I say bucket list it! Do the things you want...
As we speak I am procrastinating about a paper. Maybe feel overwhelmed. I know I should break it into small pieces but I just donwanna do it right now. Haha but I have deadlines and tons to do. It's irritating. I also get the white noise like a tv on with no channels just fuzz. Uggg feel for you!!
It seemed managed for me after 7 years of hell then 15 years later not as bad but worse consequences but much more trauma between and I had no respectable treatment during the seven years just diagnosis and talk. I think it's different for everyone. I look at it a unavoidably permanent but...
Don't feel bad, happened to me too. He said something to the effect of I would love it if you got implants. I said you pay then. Haha. Truly I do see that I am a bit smaller and not big and I myself have considered it. Another comment was I was thinner than many other women he had dated...
It sounds like something came up that may have caused dissociation or triggered a personality. It would be interesting to try to find out what the trigger is if you can. I think it would be helpful for your therapist to know so they can help you. Regardless of the diagnosis, you deserve love...
Hey Stickler,
Miss ya. Wish you were feeling better!! School can be overwhelming sometimes and a lot of pressure!!! The first semester back for me was all about the computer! Every day there was a computer problem that would need to be fixed. It drove me nuts!!!!! My grandpa helped me a...
Awww poor lady!!!!! She might be having a PTSD reaction where everyone makes her nervous and she feels she can't trust anyone. It might take a month or more for her to settle depending on everything. I would tell her that or text it and tell her you support her and are there for her if she...
I am In The same boat; my insurance covers therapists but in this area all marriage family. I tried but two said i need a PTSD specialist and the nearest one is three hours away. Now I'm too busy with school. Could you talk to your insurance company? Sometimes they will make exceptions...
