    Hypervigilance- is yours degrees of constant?

    As a Farm and Ranch worker, I tend to work a lot. Seven days a week. All that work really doesn’t matter at the end of the night but I throw things at it as needed. If it’s really bad, I pop a couple of propranolol while laying there doing my thing. I might take some Benadryl or L tryptophan in...

    when you dissociate do you look any different to yourself when you look in the mirror?

    I get a slight feeling of unawareness if I am real spacey that way. Like a dumbed down affect from unawareness. Couldn’t help but notice a couple neurons firing in the way of intrigue. If it is OSDD-classifications, I don’t recall looking in a mirror in that state. That is more of a state of...

    always losing time, every day the day seems to suddenly vanish before my eyes

    That very very much resonates with me as well. Especially the losing objects, misplacing things. There is entirely way too much going on in our heads. Left my own devices, I can be a mess and without God as I know it, if I actually remember it’s there, can help me ground. Curious? Do you...

    always losing time, every day the day seems to suddenly vanish before my eyes

    I’ve gotten myself in pretty bad sorts before myself. I’d take note how much sleep you are getting. What about trying to get to sleep? Any voices? Onset schizophrenia I’ve read is very unpleasant to say the least. Voices come on like a freight train and literally prevents sleep. Inner chatter...

    Yes I guess I was one of the other ones that had a bunch of stuff coming up.

    What Song Are You Listening To Right Now?

    These guys are solid. Been listening to them a long time as a way to relax and reset. Never ceases to amaze me the emotions that can be drawn out of music. Headphones yes??

    Childhood People who don't remember their childhoods

    Memory is strange to describe. A kind of patchwork. How do you describe, perhaps a slide show of layered images, sequential within a flash of thought. Our brains are mapping everything. I guess one might remember some endearing moments, some not, and some, really not. The scary ones I have...

    Stuck in Anger about no closure and injustice

    Yes forgive yourself for having to act and letting her walk on you. You can forgive her too for not accepting you and being the way she is. However you want to do that up to you what you can do. In your mind or in person. Since she is a narcissist, it could very well be that it isn’t a...

    Trying therapy again. What questions should I ask?

    Almost exactly what you said. Copy, paste, print. They will know exactly what a trauma therapist is and whether they have one or not. No confusion there. Mention PTSD and they will know you are in it for a long haul. Last office I went to, I filled out a bunch of paperwork and they asked me...

    What Song Are You Listening To Right Now?

    I got nothing. You nailed it ha ha. But no seriously, I have some thing I am listening to right now. Oh yeah.....

    Childhood Was this child on child sexual abuse?

    I am no expert but I didn’t want you to wait too long to know someone was listening. I think what you experienced is kind of common. Your feelings seem understandable. I think the first step if you haven’t already would be talking it over with a trauma therapist. They can help you orient your...

    Other Wearing a face covering is triggering memories of suffocation and I'm now scared to go to the shops.

    I know, I know. I feel like sometimes people are in sort of a scramble to get done what they need to get done and be as safe as they can. They see someone without a mask and they give you a wide berth or they complain even possibly offering you a mask… it is hard but the threat is real and I...

    Other Wearing a face covering is triggering memories of suffocation and I'm now scared to go to the shops.

    I second that. Face shields aren’t normally used by themselves to protect against something like this and there are some pretty serious advantages to wearing both. However, if you really can’t bring yourself to wear a mask, a face shield is a whole heck of a lot better than nothing. Provided...

    Other Covid ‘long haulers’ support thread

    I had it from March 6 to April 11 was when I said “you know what I think I’m just about back to normal.” It was very difficult because I live on a farm and I am basically the one running the show on the ground. Somebody else handles the business end of things. My first symptom was a scratchy...
