@joeylittle, you're right. That is great advice.

That's a good question, EveHarrington. I think it's because I used to think I had friends on that other website. So, it hurts a little. But I have to keep telling myself that the people I talk to on Other Website have my email address if they really miss me and want to stay in touch.

Kubash16, Thanks for your very good advice. I like that very much, "make a promise to yourself to not engage with them" and "try to remove an emotional response." I already don't engage with them anymore. I have trained myself, that if I see their name on a post, not to read the post. There...

Ronin, absolutely. I agree with you. I may have misrepresented my problem. I wasn't asking for a way to change the other people. I am absolutely looking at it like there is a way here for me to change my response the situation. I seem to be tripping over my responses. That is the problem...

Suicide, drug use, gas-lighting Hi Everyone, There is a Couple who makes me sick. I can't help it. When I see posts from Couple, my hair stands up and I growl--not posts on this website, but another website. About a year ago, I asked Wife (from the Couple) about Other Member on Other...

Thanks for the warm welcome, Zombycat! Cool name btw. Yes, I'm blessed by having a friend who is also a member here. She is how I found this website. I appreciate your good advice. I'll definitely follow it.

It's so hard, learning about ptsd treatments bring the memories of the events and then the flashbacks start. It drains me. Then if I have something else going on in my life, my brain slows way down. It takes me a long time to process thoughts, emotions, and experiences, and work them to a...

Thanks, Junebug. Sorry I didn't reply sooner. I didn't get a notification about your response until today. Thanks as always, Dharma Girl. You're such a wealth of helpful information for me. I'm sorry I didn't reply sooner. I just got the notification today that you sent these responses.

Thanks so much for this list. It's already way more than I know to do.

I'm so glad. When you're up to it, I'd love to hear what gloom-recovery tools you find useful. Take care! (hugs)

@DharmaGirl, is there anything I can do to help you?

Thanks for the welcome and the suggestion. I'll check out the social section now. Thank you so much for that instruction. It may sound stupid but I didn't get instructions on how to handle life as I was growing up, so hearing exactly what you said is perfect for me. It's only common sense...
