    Core Beliefs & Counters

    Counter 1: Some people do like me. Counter 2: It is safe to be me, when I listen to my intuition and act in a way, prudent and sensible. Counter 3: I have an "in" here, and with my kids and partner and I am just as much part of my society, culture and environment as any one else I share them...

    Readers thread: what or who are you reading right now?

    I've just started reading that, myself! My 19 yr old daughter bought it, finished it, and gave it to me. I'm only just starting it though. It's the hard copy, all-in-one book of books. :-)

    Other people don't exist / I don't exist

    I've had a longstanding CD that "I don't matter", but my current SO is countering that, in a big way.

    You Know You Have PTSD When...

    When going down to the post office to pick up a package is the biggest deal, and I'm not 100 % that I'll be able to do it, today.

    Make A Sentence From 6 Random Letters.

    Very original recompenses treat everybody X-ordinarily. (Come on you have to give me that one, what starts with X? Pretty much nothing). TROCUM

    Sufferer PTSD and cPTSd survivor looking for community

    Welcome @CoryS . I don't even have a TV. Also have kid's and CPTSD. Also can hardly watch any movies or TV shows. They are pretty terrible, for the most part. So, lots in common! Glad you found us, bit not for the reasons you needed to.

    General Do men with ptsd want your empathy?

    I do, occasionally, ask my guy if he's ok, when I can see that he's not. He doesn't get offended by it. He knows it's because I care about him and he understands "the feminine mind", he knows we're not the same. He usually nods ok, whether he is or not, but will, sometimes, sound off about...

    Atheist unite!!

    Well, if your belief system can't hold up to a little intellectual rigour, maybe you're the ones more "cultish" than you, actually, realised. After all, isn't that what you atheists pride yourselves in? Critical inquiry and intellectual rigour? How better to show what you're actually invested...

    Atheist unite!!

    Yeah, so rumours about Q should be left out too, especially when they are total and utter BS. THAT of @somerandomguy was a conspiracy theory, if ever I heard one, regarding the intel known as Q so maybe you should let him know, as well, what this thread ISN'T about.

    General Do men with ptsd want your empathy?

    I think, sometimes, they just want the comfort, of someone, who loves them, close by, maybe a hug, maybe an ear that just listens and nods and hears and cares. No judgementalness; if you can't possibly understand, coz you haven't been anywhere near there, maybe just loyalty, reliability and...

    Projection in Therapy

    Are you sure you aren't over thinking it @grit? Can you try just breathing into your heart and feeling what's there? You are going to figure this out. It's probably coming from fear and self judgement, but in your heart of hearts YOU KNOW what this is about. I'm not sure projection should be...

    Quote Of The Day

    In the real world there are corporations, be they pharmaceutical, agricultural, petroleum, or chemical companies, that have billions of dollars at stake in the work of scientists. If one has billions of dollars, he can use the dark arts of persuasion to hire public relations firms to tout your...

    I walked out of my house, alone, and went to the PO!

    This is a big deal for me, right now. Struggling with bad, agoraphobia, well it's not exactly, agoraphobia, more like social phobia. I can manage when I have someone with me but, generally, going out, in public, alone, is some thing I'm exceedingly avoidant of. So, I went down to the PO...

    Meet Cute - Tell me the story of how you met your significant other.

    I met him through our son's. They were best friends, from school. My kid's besty (who ended up, my stepson) was being abused by his mum, who was (is, very untreated and mentally) unwell, he used to stay at our house a lot. My SO got custody of his kid's so I met him, coming to pick up his...

    Colorful and hopefully optimistic but maybe hateful occasionally

    Great news about the cleared room! And your mum liking the therapist you got her. That's some progress. @littleoc. Happy for you :-)
