Depends on her personality, my guess seeing as though you are inferring she is dysfunctional, she either blew it on fashion or plastic surgery or hoarding it for the future that will never come so to be inherited by her children.
Unless she blew it on drugs.
Sorry but I'm not a wizard I can only...
I never said I'm cured. I'm just trying to help and you seem to be playing devils advocate which is fine.
Ummm I'm certainly not a sociopath. I'm in rehab seeing a shrink and on meds. I've been diagnosed twice with ptsd, it's just not a current diagnosis. You know ptsd is the most common dsm...
Hey all.
I only have ptsd traits but have read up on ptsd and psychology, I actually can't talk to psychologists because of my ptsd as I was a presumed sociopath but now found I am borderline so I've kind of beat the system and diagnosed myself through going over all my sessions which includes...
I am not being treated for ptsd just in rehab doing db for being borderline. The mental health system is a joke because legally they can't give me advice just drop hints like archery is fun, chamomile tea is healthy. They don't say breath with your stomach or it's important to do this or that so...
The insomnia is random I think it's when I have stress such as with a girl I'm dating or something at home with my family.
I know before I had trouble exercising without music but since starting an ssri cbt and mindful jogging is easy.
I have in the past ran for a long time but that was with...
Thanks.
I'm still off the codeine but still have good and bad days. My fitness is to the point now where it provides a good benefit. What is helping me right now:
Mindful jogging so no music
Sauna
Cold shower
Just listening to music
Just relaxing (cbt/meditation)
My shrink also has me doing...
Thanks guys this forum is very helpful to me. I don't meet the criteria for ptsd but everything for it helps so much and I have been diagnosed twice. I don't think drug induced ptsd is official.
I have started back on risperidone but I am a bit worried about going on and off meds.
I'm...
Thanks I'm actually off codeine but I'm a bit hyper aroused now and don't know what to do. I most certainly have bpd. It's unethical to diagnose it in Australia I think unless you've been to jail which i haven't.
I did almost die though which is when I got diagnosed by an angry resident shrink...
I'm seeing an addiction and bpd specialist.
About the abilify I was never on it. It was suggested because I got triggered and needed a course of risperidone but was fed up with increased prolactin.
My doctor only suggested it because my family were concerned about my mental state at the time...
I've been an inpatient with mdd and psychosis. I'm not schizophrenic, honestly I'm borderline.
A second Thai psychologist said to me i have ptsd. Mine is from amphetamines, years ago.
I go psychotic easily and it gives me trauma.
I've been prescribed abilify for mood but me and my family don't...
Wow okay I thought i was getting worse due to exposure and the codeine was helping.
I do have a thought disorder right now.
My shrink does want me off codeine and is trying to work out what to do with me.
Do you think I need methadone? I'm only on a small dose of codeine but it's obviously...
It's important you take a zinc supplimemt before and after surgery, as surgery depletes this. Also ptsd depletes magnesium so I think ZMA is perfect. Just my two cents.
The problem is when I stop codeine i get hyper arousal.
I'm typing from a phone i cbf with presentation.
I had avoidant ptsd for years.
I would go out and then go back home and dissociate on the computer.
The more I progress the worse I get with mood swings and the thousand yard...
Codeine is for Hyper arousal, it's not officially prescribed, I'm just on it till I get better.
What I find helping a lot is massage therapy, since i got a tension release my mind has been more calm and the days have slowed.
It's also made my breathing naturally slower.
The mob in my other...
