I don't feel like you have been dishonest, I am in a wonderful relationship with a man for the last six years, we both have PTSD, he was raped both by his biological father and then in the military, among other traumatic things, and I was born with PTSD, that was further complicated by my PTSD...

I have been "on" since i was born. I was carried in the womb of a mother who had PTSD and was exposed to her high levels of cortisol and other fight or flight chemicals. I have dealt with trembling in my hands and fingers and tingles my whole life. The only thing I have found that helps is...

Yes

This story calls to me on many levels. Let me share a little of my experience may be something will call to you. My best friend and I have known each other since we were in day care together. I love her very deeply and she loves me (nothing sexual, but definitely a very deep bond, deeper...

@ arfie I love the legend of the phenoix. It is one of the things that has helped me get through some really tough times. When I was a young woman I used to have the most painful menstrual cycles. I literally felt like I was dying every month and being reborn. Doctors found nothing wrong...

I too experience times of "brain freeze" which is most frustrating. I have no problem making a decision when there are just two things to choose from but when so many things hit me all it once... well it is like being in wonderland... it is not just door number A or door number B, but doors...

It seems to be contagious...everyone around me seems to be healing LOL. My beloved, my sister, my mom, my dad...for awhile it felt like every one was growing except me..but lately that seems to be changing too:D

So I have mentioned in my other posts that my dad's abuse towards me was of a psychological nature. He did not want a daughter and wanted a son and raised me as a son (including all the stero typical ways that son is are supposed to be raised) One of the very detrimental things he used to do...

I started my own business, you know it was the best thing I have ever done for myself. I hire others to do the jobs I can't (like doing customer service with people that would set me off every which way) and then I also have the freedom to have as many "sick" days as I need to. I love to help...

I can relate to this situation and again I am in your husbands shoes. When I get stressed out I shut down and pull more and more inside myself. If someone pushes me to open up I shut down even more. It is the only way I can cope at times. My beloved has learned that when I am this way the...

I too do not like baths, however after someone attempted to drown me I don' t like any body of water. Only like showers and then not too often. Still working on that though because I do like to be clean. However, if I get any water at all on my face I start to have an anxiety attack.

For years I thought I was insane. I had a memory that no one else had. My mother didn't have it, my sister didn't have it. I sometimes wondered if I made it all up. However, my feelings were so strong about it so I knew it was real. Then my sister started getting treatment several years...

Barconian, I would appreciate it if you would contain your quips towards me. I don't know you and you don't know me. Whether or not my post sounded 'smart' or not it is how I feel. I would not want anyone to be with me who could not handle me when I wasn't being "perfect" and that is all I...

Okay this is what I would say in this situation. Don't get back together because now it feels good. Get back together because you are ready to deal with it when it gets bad again. If you are not ready to deal with it when it gets bad again then I would really question the motives for wanting...
