    I Feel Dirty

    Would a bath help? I feel that way a lot. I get relief by submerging in the tub and visualizing all of the filth just washing off of my body. Then I drain the tub and take a shower using my favorite soap and a loofah scrubbing myself clean. I then follow up with some lotion. Be careful not...

    Triggered At Work Again

    If I may point out, you were validated by the other customers in line. I don't know if that helps. Suggestion for next time, you can try some grounding exercises. Taking a deep breath in through your nose for the count of 4, exhale through your mouth for the count of 5. Just a thought..........

    I Feel "given Up On"

    No, I can't say why she thought it wasn't working for me. I thought I was the judge of that. When they called today to "remind" me of my appointment with my new t, I simply told the lady that I never agreed to that, and that I was unclear as to why my other t passed me off. She said she would...

    Thanks. I just dont know how she came to that conclusion. I thought I was doing well. It just came out of nowhere. I really don't want to start over with someone else. I'm sure that I am just overly sensitive right now

    I Feel "given Up On"

    Hi. I am not sure if this is in the right area. Anyway, My T decided I couldn't handle EMDR. I have been doing talk therapy for years. I am talked out. My T wants to pass me off to another T in the practice. I went to chat, but once again nobody was there even though it said there was. I...

    Are You Suicidal

    When I am seriously considering suicide, I don't bother making sure anything is "in order" I simply don't care. I am too depressed to get anything organized. People may think I am selfish, but if I had cancer, they wouldn't want me to suffer, or be in pain. Why is PTSD, and depression any...

    Poll How Often Do You Pray?

    I think God/Religion is a very difficult topic. I was raised in a "religious" household. My family quoted that all you had to do was ask God to forgive your sins and they would be forgiven--as I was being traumatized every night. Can you see where things are confusing for me? I have been...
