    Sufferer C-ptsd and undiagnosed Polyfragmented DID, medicated with antipsychotcs

    Hey there. I was diagnosed as DID decades ago, and it turned out that I was autistic, and fluctuating between anxiety responses and depression. I don't think that particular doc was capable of seeing a male as a victim. I know that sounds odd, but I have a feeling that is the case. Anyways, I...

    Alcohol & drug addiction with ptsd

    Though at first I didn’t see the connection, I can now understand how my alcohol use was tied to my traumas. I always drank to get as wasted as possible, at first due to youthful exuberance, but later because I just wanted to forget myself for a while. It eventually started to become a major...

    Why should we have to suffer so much?

    We shouldn't. But we do. I really doubt that there is any life without pain, or certainly none worth living. Nothing worth having ever came easy, and that is especially true in an economy custom designed to make us feed off each other not to simply break even, but to survive. I've done alot of...

    General How to help him find the beauty in humanity again?

    Take him to a dog park. He likes nature, gets to play with dogs, and see people at their best. Cause people act their best around the puppers. <3

    General Is this man predatory towards me?

    What's the difference in your age? It sounds like he -definitely- flirting, and edging on being inappropriate. If he's made you feel uncomfortable for years now, it doesn't matter his intentions, really. But you said you would be seeing him more in the future.. What did you mean by this?

    What is hypervigilance like for you?

    My hypervigilance is much less now that it used to be.. (the deathwish doesn't help). I no longer walk around armed to the teeth. But I still listen carefully for any shift in the tone of someone's voice, look for any change in facial expression, suspect any stranger who so much as smiles at me...

    Do you have core beliefs that don't bother you, but concern others?

    Well, I'm totally psychotic, but it's in a way that "they" can't do anything about. I traffic with gods. I don't talk about it, that often, but people know something is up when you stare at the moon and laugh at the sun. It bothers them. One thing I dislike about our age of western rationality...

    Happy dia de los muertos!

    That is all... except.. Google put together this really nice presentation about it. Google Arts & Culture

    Two weeks past horizon

    I am trying, by the way, to rebuild myself. Starting up a fencing club, learning spanish, applied at the local hospital because they have great insurance. I am trying. I hope somehow I can find something to hope for, some way of caring for/about myself again. I just can't see it right now. I'm...

    Two weeks past horizon

    So.. two weeks ago I tried to fix myself, in a permanent manner. I went to a lake where I was happy, back in 96, drank for the first time in 5.5 years, downed a bottle of sleeping pills, stumbled into the lake, then passed out on the shore. They found me the following afternoon, apparently the...

    Vulnerability Is Not Weakness

    I understand that the definition of 'vulnerable' has very negative connotations, but I've come to see it and something that is simply part of the human experience, and a critical factor in any successful relationship. I have wished, so hard, that I was fully invulnerable. An invincible rock that...

    Guns

    Don't do that. It is a felony to use wasp/hornet spray in a way it as not intended. Right there on the package. It's straight up poison and can blind people. Granted, we don't much care about the assailant at the time, but the cops certainly will later on. Instead, go with some good...

    In A Bad Spot. Trying To Pull Myself Out.

    You haven't failed. Your doctor failed. Badly. It was very unprofessional of them to shame you for your symptoms. I would probably look for someone else, to be honest.

    How Much Is Okay To Share?

    I would share. The reason is, that they already know. They probably haven't been able to figure out all the details by themselves, and knowing the truth of the matter is better than wondering. I asked my mother one time about just how far back my father's anger went. I asked if there was...
