Welcome back Abstract I do remember you. I am also back after a long absence. I am happy to see familiar people still around. I am also sad to see some are not. I am afraid to ask about some in particular but I think I know. Anyways I look forward to reading your thoughts and so fourth again.:)

Teehee:D thanks Rain you always know what to say I think :tup::hug::hug:

Three hours of sleep. No nap today. The mind is a bit racy. I am hoping to get good rest tonight.

There would be random places to sleep or rest with all nice and set up with pillows and such with great views, calm ambient noises like a distant waterfall and birds chirping. You could of course take one of the solo resting spots and just turn a little sign around and says occupied or...

I hope you are hanging in there. I know I have felt the way you have described before. And I know the toll it takes on loved ones trying to care for us. I wish you Godspeed on finding therapy on a more frequent note. I was lucky and found one that made exceptions just for me. She also helped...

Horses are playing.

A hug Will do. And then maybe a nap with somebody else in the room.

I am 1000 feet up and the fog never lifted last night, it is still here 12 hours later. It feels like it’s 25° outside but there is no ice.

Tide has turned.

I realize that there is an entirely new level in me to explore and there is still much work to be done.

Wow! Hearing you describe your experience with mindfulness as you crochet is therapeutic to me… That is amazing really! I kind of swooned for a moment as I sighed... I so need to relax more.

Bless you both for hanging in there! Please don’t forget to take care of yourselves as well. Some of this stuff can rub off on our supporters inadvertently.

Perhaps this is because video games are an imaginary world and we get lost there as we involve ourselves. We withdraw to there and avoid. This really, really does not help some of us.

Ha ha. That made me smile. People used to ask me that here all the time. I don’t do video games anymore. I found it a hindrance.

Thank you rain. It consistently eludes me that I am overly stressed. I have never been good at recognizing that Or doing anything about it.

I am finding it increasingly difficult. There’s been literal fog everywhere and everything is dull for days now. I can’t wait for winter to be over, where there is more ambient life and sounds, and colors. I guess I will go back inside and stare at random objects and touch the same things. It...

Yes this makes sense to me. The flashbacks are not pleasant and stressful to say the least and I believe depersonalization,derealization and spacing out is occurring because of that. Part of us does not want to be there and so the dissociations exist. I was never that great at grounding and...

For me a flashback occurs right after something happens. Something will trigger it. Is a bit like being inside the memory because you feel it even react to it seemingly before you’re even aware that it is a memory. Almost like it is situational. Although I can see how it is confusing because...

Banana cream pie and a diet Pepsi. Sugar craving middle of the night was thwarted..

48 for me.. no. I don’t want this. 47 I think on the other one. I’m sad I want to cry. I am All this talking to myself. It’s gotten worse and lots of anger. I am always hiding things from myself. I don’t feel myself behind me very often though. I have only had several episodes of DP and DR...

Oh right I forgot to mention. Following the incident of acute hyperventilation syndrome, I was explained that they had to keep me on Ativan to treat sudden panic attacks that were way out of control. In the meantime they were switching me around from SSRI to SSRI a couple of weeks at a time to...

I know it sounds funny but I like to go to church sometimes with a friend but I don’t consider myself religious. I am also an AA member but that is more about spirituality and not about religion. I once thought that I would be religious but I always put off by certain figures and the idea of...

I just went to the bathroom and I’m wondering that as well! Sorry TMI!!

I do. I like to have many friends and help lots of people if I can. Usually the other person doesn’t understand why I’m not terribly close at first but I like to first be friends for a long period and get to know each other and our dynamic as I open up more and more. I like my freedom but am...
