Thank you ALL for your view points. And no worries Solara, about 'siding with my husband'. I want to hear different points of view so I can open my mind to anything I may have not considered. First off-Ayesha, there isn't anything else that happened that I'm not stating. I too understand how...

I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right section so my apologies if it's not the correct one. My husband knows that I did self harm in the past(cutting) and also knows that I have PTSD and major depression. I am finding that the stigma associated with mental health is having a very...

You spend all night awake trying to sleep and spend all day feeling sleepy trying to stay alert.

Feeling....tired, confused, hopeless, worried,....did I say tired?

Recovery Girl-what type of grounding techniques do you do?

I do the same thing often-OFTEN. It is frustrating, just as Kas_Can_Fly said and it's hard to accept that I can be so unaware at times. I believe it is dissociation and I try to remember it is a symptom of a disorder I have. And NOT a quality of my personality. It all too often makes me do...

Kas_can_fly I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND. I'm right there with you and all the others above. I make the exact same 'mistakes' during speaking. I've started to make a list of the words//saying I mix up----things like I meant to say toothbrush but said spoon, or saying whisper when I meant to say...

Thank you all, for taking the time to not only read but reply. I am not taking benzo's-only taking effexor and it has been in my system for months now symptom free. I'm not seeing a T anymore. I seen several for a few months and then did group counseling at the local sexual assault center...

I am having such trouble remembering parts of my day/week and certain conversations. I tell repeat stories and repeat things at work only to find that I have already done these things/told those stories. I am constantly feeling like I'm not really present in my body and that I'm on auto-drive. I...

THIS HAPPENS TO MA ALL THE TIME. I didn't know is was due to PTSD but it's extremely embarrassing and it adds to my negative self-image.

"I" don't cry-my body cries and I don't feel it-not the hurt, not the relief, nothing. ...My mothers favourite thing to say to me when I got caught crying was-What are you crying about? I'll give you something to cry about.

I am in a similar situation right now, only my issues are with coworkers. I personally cannot NOT address it. I first tried to informally resolve it between myself and the bully(coworker). That didn't work so I then took it to my boss. I then took a medical leave from work for 3 months. I've...

Thanks for that. I like how you explained it-don't force it but simply keep an eye open for it I guess. Christ this is hard.

It takes little bits of happiness away, it makes it so others seem to live in a different world where nail polish color matters and jokes make real laughs, where tmw is hoped for and life isn't a movie...I've been woken up and now I know the truth...and I can't go back to bliss where ignorance...

well...that's just awesome(NOT).
