I learned a few things about re-regulating one year, during what seems to be a trigger-month for me. (july) It was hot outside, I didn't care for the heat, or the noise. But we were eating at an outdoor restaurant by the lake and the water was pretty. I was looking at a little girl who was...

Ooooh! A weighted blanket! I've heard these are very comforting! I would love to get one of these for even flashback periods. May help with my exposure experiment. bleh >.<" /love

Greetings. There is a med called "Prazocyn," which is truly hateful to pronouce well, that was shown to help vets dealing with nightmares from ptsd. I believe it blocks alpha waves? beta waves? that bring recurring, emotional, flashback, trauma nightmares! It's freaking cool! I've been on...

I read a book once by Dr Susan Forward, where she suggests that rage needs to be experienced physically and then it can be easier to deal with on a more rational level. The way she suggested dealing with this was exercise. I did a lot of running to help me with my rage. What I felt, I channeled...

The docs from SAFE Alternatives actually suggest not using the snapping rubberband or holding ice as a substitute to deal with self-harm. They see it as another form of self harm, instead of focusing on what needs to happen (this is according to them) - the emotions need to be experienced. <3...

Hey, sweet. I don't think I or anyone here would say you're a freak for going to therapy. :) "The healthiest person in the family seeks help, " the docs told me. Therapy is just a way to get to know yourself better, my doc would say, eh? <3 (I talk like a small child sometimes, too, but I...

I'm putting this in "Dysregulation" as I am trying to learn to Regulate! :) (dammit lol) So I've found some similarities between OCD and some of the PTSD avoidance garbage I'm familiar with. It's almost the same thing, the thoughts about thinking "you're bad" or "i'm gonna die" or "if i do...

I started carrying around my watercolor tray. ?❤ lol They're so pretty. I was fortunate to catch the last episode of "the prisoner" on pluto tv. A character says, after being threatened, "....then I'll die with my own mind. You'll hypnotize me no longer." ?❤??

Oh! This is lovely!!! /prayers to you ❤

Banging her head and hitting herself is considered self injury. I'm so concerned for this small person! There is a med that can help folks not self injure called "Naltrexone." It helps to stave off the urges. It also helps urges for folks trying not to drink or do heroin. (It's the same...

I saw your post and I'm actually feeling like this right now. I wanted to mention a couple things that I hope might help you out. Ive been asking myself this, too. * "What emotions are you not wanting to feel?" * This is a big deal for me. I got it from a book and company dealing with self...

Ive tried not to do this with certain major events but this one is still too new. Sorry if I get typos, I'm writing on my phone. I wasnt feeling entirely well yesterday and it dawned on me that it's been 3 years since I got hurt doing an activity. The thing that really hurts is the people at...

This is huge! ❤

Ah, just thinking about doing it, causes me some discomfort. Will this ever go away? I hate feeling like this. It's so stupid. lol >,<" My brain has turned against me. It seems real - and it's not. WTH!
