I’m not sure I even understand a lot of Thi article.. But then I do have Severe PTSD and have done for over 20 years.
Thankfully it is something you can’t catch or pass on to others.
I am not sure I believe women are more prone to PTSD. I think we probably talk more openly about it that’s all...
Hi Tasha
I'm in Australia so again can't help with a support group.
My suggestion to you.. you go seek a support group. One for yourself.
Sadly we can't make anyone do something they don't want to do and for some of us, sticking our face straight in the problem is just too terrifying.
I feel...
I feel nothing.
bored.
lonely
Can't be bothered
tired
Sore arms.
Sore head
Stupid.
Sick of myself.
Nothing makes me even think a cheerie thought
Can't feel good about anything.
Blahhhh!!
My mother makes me filthy angry when she only talks about her shit and won't sit and listen to some of mine. I am fed up with listening to crap always about her. She is never happy and she is belittling and nasty and says nasty stuff when she is 'loosing the argument'. Hits below the belt and...
When all the world is going crazy, Look up! The sky is still there, the trees are still there and nature has not changed much. so no matter the madness around you and in your mind. All is good!
Use the search bar and type your own name to see where you were last time. I do it all the time.
I type in the name of my favourite friends and find them that way too.
I always get lost on here so that is how I find my way.
Hope it helps.
Kim. Me thinks you and I have the same mother and the same family. Good on you for walking away. I am still in the cess pool of emotional abuse. If you don't need her then stay right where you are and all these great people can have more of her for themselves. they won't have to share her with...
'You're overtired go to bed.'
Ever since I was tiny, if ever I need to talk to my Mum about something this was always the answer. Copped it yesterday and I am 44. Obviously still don't know when I am overtired or not..... Problems are still there but obviously I got some sleep......
there is a sadness in my body
and it goes to the core of my soul
It has seeped in over time
Gone on past the bone
filtered all around until I cannot move
covered every inch on me
consumed my every thought
I know it all comes just to pass
I wonder will it leave
Every day I see a small difference...
Families very rarely get it right. Well that is what I have figured out any way. Only taken 44 years but that is how I see it now. there seems to be so much 'stuff' that clouds every ones view points. Perhaps your brother didn't stay in therapy as 'he was over it', he was 'Ok with what he...
I got past my revenge thinking as I got back what I wanted which was my daughter.
Funnily enough I don't even give the dickhead a thought much these days.
Buggared if I know what happened to him and what he is up too.
Don't know, don't care. I don't regret anything as the worst I got too was...
Things for me are a bit rough lately as it is for all of us.
Some of my friends are sending me things to try and help:)
I wanted to share this with you.
I cried the whole time but I felt a real need to share.
I hope you enjoy this story as much as I do and it helps you a bit today like it helped...
Always remember that no matter who does who to whom, the best man left standing is the one that stays in his own intergrity and his own honour.
Those that don't do suffer in the end.
Those that do, end up with everything.
Shit floats.
Look inside a septic tank if you don't believe me.
All the...
You will never ever ever understand how that simple thing about the tunnel changed my life!!!
i wish every one knew it and looked at a tunnel like that.
Be happy
thought you might like a thought for the day.;)
Who ever said the tunnel was straight???
you may be closer to the light at the end than you know.....
If there is a sharp bend in the tunnel right there before the light. The bend may be blocking the light and you may only need one more step to...
Can I help you with this one. It is close to my heart after the abuse I suffered from my daughgterh and her 50 yearl old male friend. I so understand what you are going through.
go to our conversation area if you want and I can tell you what I have learnt. and how I dealt with it.
I just think it is nice to have some happy 'fluff' on the tv and news that doesn't remind us of all the sadness that is out there every where. Sooner or later we need to look for some good and if this is where it is on the TV at the moment then so be it. I at least feel happy for them because...
Art is about expression of feelings and what is happening around you. Art is not just about the finished object. That is why dance is art. It expresses. There is no right nor wrong so it is just a wonderful way to let it all out.
Unblock the inner you by expressed it some how. It is very...
Thanks for sharing.
You do terrify me and I know that is my issue not yours.
I am new to the site and unfortunately also hopeless with computers.
I appreciate the site and have found making friends fun.
I try to stay inside the rules but I am sorry if I have offended you by asking you stuff in...
Send him over. Tell him to make contact.
I have a 19 year old son and a 15 year old son.
there is a bit done here for Vets but I am not one so there is not much for people like me.
There is a big PTSD unit 5 minutes up the road from here but you need private health insurance and I don't have...
Nah.....
Get in the car, tune on the stereo, wind down the windows and scream your butt off. LOL so cool for the soul. If you cant sing a tune, then scream one. LOL
I would no more sing Kareoke than take my clothes off in public and the feeling of screaming a song is fabulous. I don't sing...
Anni I live in Australia and if we can help your nephew, even if it is just a holiday, then send him over. We would love to have him and maybe the sunny weather (flooding as it has been lately) will help him a bit. Unfortunately Aussie is hopeless with support for Veterans and for any one with...
OMG, all of this is so sad but I have to say that I can understand why people commit suicide. some how you just seem to get it into your head that the world would be a happier place without you to keep making it so much harder for everyone with the crazy behaviour. Also it is so frustrating to...
