I want to pick up a live tree so the house smells like pine. All the Christmas decorations are pretty much what the kids made, my own...

Yup! We started playing it around the start of November, randomly. A good apartment tree. Less room. Less mess. We also found it...

I wrote out all the Christmas cards to send out from my grandparents and me this morning, while listening to some Christmas music. I'll...

Love your tree!

I will be alone for it (like I have been the last 20 years or so). I'm not doing cards or gifts, because I never get any in return, and...

doesn't really matter, honestly. I have said somewhere else in these pages that it is a date on a calendar for us (wife and myself) We...

Oh my! That looks such a fun room. Imagine the kids will love that @anthony . I like Christmas. Haven't spent it with my birth family...

I love that I can watch Youtube AD free with it, without addons or such and associated issues. Out of the box, AD free internet.

So, how are you doing with your Christmas plans this year? Our tree is packed this year. We don't normally do this much for Christmas...

Now I'm Involved: Only warning from me, keep politics out of this thread. I'm not going to argue with people. If you want to discuss...

Hmmm... Brave Browser, possibly the best I've ever used for privacy. Call me impressed.

Why? The only thing stopping you doing so, is you. A partner is not a dumping ground, BUT, a partner is someone who is there to support...

Yes, but not in your case, because of the below. There is no reason that you have to be experiencing all these things until the day you...

Nope. No need. News can often upset people with PTSD. Your husbands view is just that, his view. His view is not right nor wrong. He...

Based on reading what you're posting, I think they were both bang on with their focus. Therapy is good, but it can't solve your...

Fixed.

It looks like it may be a Cloudflare issue. Working with them to hopefully rectify the issue.

At present, I believe the service will return, as something has changed causing the issue, but the developer is not the issue.

I'm not sure what the issue is right now, I'm looking into it, but third parties do things, and one of the third parties has now stopped...

How so?

Done nothing wrong, all is good. His death doesn't affect me one way or another. I only knew him over the Internet and video chatted...

CPTSD is not exclusive to childhood trauma. Research many years back had already dumped most combat trauma into CPTSD, due to the type...

No... I think it has passed, and I didn't keep copies of his work he had sent me, as they were given to me as confidential and private...

People get confused with the trauma vs the symptoms. I can see pros and cons to CPTSD as a diagnosis, but the end aim is to identify the...

Yes, just grab a copy of the DSM or ICD. Either of those two manuals provide all the facts. Depression and anxiety are foremost genetic...
