Hello to all the familiar faces! Long time, no see. I hope everyone is doing well.:cool: Despite my best efforts, I have managed to snag myself another soldier after the devastating crash and burn with the ex-BF. It's the uniform...I am powerless to resist!;) New BF is in the Reserves and I am...

Found this adorable little guy at work a week ago. He's probably only 4 months old, weights a pound or so, and seems to be in really good condition. He had quite the flea infestation which I think is gone now. He's a big time snuggler, likes cats (unfortunately mine don't feel the same about...

I'm still doing pretty good with the realization that Tater and I aren't together anymore (as much as one can be together long distance in this situation) and never will be. But now I'm starting to crack waiting to hear back from him about our friendship. I shouldn't because we've been taking...

I've heard barely a peep from Tater in the 2 weeks since we Skyped and I brought up the vacation ideas. He had seemed mostly okay with it then, but I knew he'd need time to process and think. Well, yesterday when I wrote I asked if he was okay and if it was me because I could feel the silence...

I've loved this video series for years, I LOVE cats. This is the newest one for Valentine's Day and as I was watching I thought, "Hmmm, this seems awfully familiar..." haha It's Peach and Tater:shifty::rolleyes::D at least until the end. :p

I hate to say it and I certainly hate to feel it, but when starved of affection for a long enough period of time and no indication that this is just a spell, the fire of romantic love will start to die. We ended things in May with him still really on edge and saying no relationship beyond...

It was at Walmart and said "I like you" though still had romantic intonations, IMO. Just thought that was interesting and I know how many of our guys (and a few ladies around here) get squigged about hearing that someone loves them.

Seems this is the season of lonely hearts. Looks like a fair number of our significant sufferers have either tucked into their shells.....or are running around like raging bulls. LOL Freakin Christmas! Didn't even get a gift from him this year which rather sucks, I must say. But I get it. I...

Hey everybody, I'm looking for some information about smoking alternatives, particularly ones that are readily available and relatively cheap in the UK. Some back story, Tater smokes...a lot. 2 packs a day of Lambert and Butler silver. He complains about the cost and has considered (and bought)...

Tater has been in a funk since about November 20th. He's been dealing with his favorite PTSD trigger - bureaucratic red tape. This has been going on for a long time now, but it's been ramped up these past few months and his brain finally had enough. He is now taking a break from everything...

We went out to eat and she mentioned American Sniper. Ironically, it was just a few days ago that I mentioned here her fairly new found penchant for ranting and making blanket statements about things she really knows nothing about. Well, I've already heard this particular viewpoint from her and...

If anyone cares to remember, Tater has been at war with the ESA for years and it seemed to come to a head a month or so ago when his case was referred to ATOS. He was sure it was downhill from there. They called non-stop and scheduled him (not at his regular Doc) for a physical. He didn't go or...

Technically, it's a love song...or at least a pining after someone song, but with a little imagination, yep - I give you the Supporter's Anthem. Arctic Monkeys - Snap Out Of It And before someone takes offense, I'm not suggesting PTSD is a choice, that sufferers are obtuse, or always making bad...

I've been reading and have now calmed down a bit and feel like I can better express myself without so much emotion. (End note...maybe not.) Tater is still having a difficult time. It's been one thing after another for weeks. That could be due more to his bad mood turning molehills into...

Some other posts recently have touched on "love language." For many years I've found this to be an interesting and special topic because my parents, who were married for forty-something years, are now divorced. I had a very happy childhood along with my siblings; no one is perfect and all...

Tater has been, in his own words, a yo-yo for the past month-ish. It started with the big packet of papers he had to fill out, which took two weeks. One week to get his head back together. After that, he had a good week where he was calm again; enjoying life, me, and his projects. He got back...

I was wondering if anyone has much knowledge about these various...I don't even know what they are...services? Departments? My vet has tried to explain, but I am just not getting it. Seems like we're talking about at least 2 separate and distinct payments/groups here - ESA and SERPS, that he has...

I try to be understanding with Tater (the name I'll use for my vet from now on) and his inability/reluctance to do chores/enjoyable jobs which I find small and easy...but that's because I don't have to deal with his problems. I know they're big tasks for him. For example, I wish he'd get a dog...

What used to be a weekly occurrence, became a monthly thing about two months ago. His decision, not mine. In the midst of his overflowing cup, he wanted to take it off the table all together. After he started getting his head back together, but was still isolating a bit, I gently told him that...

There is a new member around here who's handle reminded me of my vet, so I got to thinking: Wouldn't it be freaking amazing (there's no chance in hell, just a little fantasy) if, unbeknownst to you, your sufferer came on the board one day, posting, looking for advice, and really giving insight...

I've found myself walking a new path recently after I quit my job of 8 years (so long, suckers!!!) and am now in the process of re-evaluating my life. I am a bit stressed, but not freaking out too badly, and have all but decided that my best long term plan is to go back to school. This...

THESE ARE ACTUAL COMPLAINTS RECEIVED BY "THOMAS COOK VACATIONS" FROM DISSATISFIED CUSTOMERS: 1. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food." 2. "They should not allow topless sunbathing on the beach. It was very...

My vet is Welsh and over the years we've run into the issue of privacy a few times. I was raised in the South and am generally a pretty open book. As for him, specifically, absolutely nothing about me is off limits - fire away - though he rarely does. He knows a ton of my secrets, but that's...

My vet wrote me an email today, he sounded pretty good, but it came with a warning...he got yet another "book" of medical forms from the Ministry Of Defense to fill out regarding his pension. He's been fighting with them for at least a year and a half and it stresses him out so much and...

Found this interesting TED Talks video today and thought I would share. :) Kevin Briggs: The bridge between suicide and life - YouTube by Peach posted Jun 8, 2015 at 9:47 PM
