I'm in physio for my back and FM. I've been there for about 2 months now. I'm just starting to get some mobility back and a wee bit of strength. Turns out my FM made my back injury much worse than it was to begin with and now I'm fighting to get any strength or mobility back at all. Lesson...

Good for you Jest! Yeah the puffer doesn't look, feel or taste like one at all, but keep it handy.. you'd be suprised what that little puff of yuck into the back of your throat can do for you when you watch someone light up a smoke! My step mom used the patch and yanked it off at night to avoid...

I am just over the one month mark for no smoking. I am using the nicorette inhaler. I stopped smoking in the house one week before my quit date. The night before of my "day zero" I smoked like a feind. I literally smoked till I couldn't. :laugh: Day one was horrible for me in the sense of...

Wow. I just can't believe I just read an entire thread of harsh judgements based on nothing but speculation in a forum for people STRUGGLING WITH REACTIONS UNDER EXTREME STRESS. You know reactions that may or may not be frowned upon by others. Reactions that often even we can not live with. I...

Well we ran the bike last night. First time I've ever heard her and first time to run in over a decade. She lit right up no problems. :) I need new diaphrams and float needles and a bunch of other things.. but SHE RUNS! Now it's a matter of finding parts, bit o work, safety, insure and go...

OOOOOH!!! I remember our old chats! They were awesome.. okay bouncing up and down in excitment now! Can't wait! bec:giggle:

Thanks amethist.. I have a haynes manual already. We pulled apart the carb last night.. not good. Have to find a new one (or more like a working one.) I highly doubt that I will have her running in less than a month. So I will be part hunting for the next while! It's the first snag. :) bec

LB: We just backed up the truck to the top step and rolled it on in! Works like a charm to get past steps. :) Course now I have to build a damn ramp to get it out of the house.. LMAO.... Blwnawy: I would love to explain but I actually don't know exactly what part it is. What I do know is that...

Okay so you are arguing against the US proposed style of Healthcare, and you are using Canada as your example as why this is bad when the two are not even the same? We (as in Canada) have a doctor shortage right now for 2 reasons. 1. The government controls how many doctor and nursing spots are...

I find that shame and guilt is from secondary wounding, at least for me. The whole, well you deserved it, or it didn't really happen or whatever stupid people say. Learning to not listen to others "shoulds" and find my own ideal reactions helps negate that effect. Also learning to live true to...

LOL amethist your gonna have to beat them off you pretty soon. ;) Yeah pulling carbs off on tuesday, needs a new timer (ugh thingy lol) and new fork seals.. so far .. hehe Should be road worthy before July 1st... should be .... bec

Yes my whole family is having conipition fits. Don't see what the problem is? LOL K going to try to upload this a bit... Okay so the first is when I went to get it. The second was a moose we had to stop and wait for. (it was a four hour ride one way to get my bike.) And the last is parked in...

It is unfortunately not rideable as of yet. It has been sitting for 13 years but is in great shape. Needs a bit of maitence. I'm so f'ing tired. LOL just got home about an hour ago and bike is in it's garage ( commonly referred to as my kitchen LOL.) Ah okay so have to have url or something to...

Yes and just because someone has PTSD and seizures doesn't mean they don't have epilepsy! LOL.

Am going to be heading out the door to go and collect my bike in less than an hour! I'm very excited. :) WIll post pics later this weekend! bec

Honestly, this is just a bunch of fancy names for a panic attack. LOL Welcome to the club! ;) Look into mindfulness, it really helps with just accepting symptoms so that you don't accerlated them into full blown panic attacks. bec

Um no I would not consider it to be EMDR trauma. Its more like.. it screwed up some wiriing in my brain.. and now it keeps short circuiting. It is getting better, but its been years. I'm hoping that eventually it will fade entirely. bec

AWESOME, just AWESOME. LOL I totally agree. As for facebook, both my son and I deleted it. It's nothing but a roaring pain in the ass, nevermind all the damn viruses now infecting everyone no matter how careful you are. Neither of us miss it. bec

:roflmao: Bawhahahahaha... no comment here either.. but I feel for ya Nicolette! bec

Good for you 8track. You tried, you put up healthy boundaries and you enforced them. That is all healthy. I'm sorry it had to end like this but no one deserves that abuse for any reason whatsoever. Go and treat yourself for putting yourself first. bec

LOL congrats Anthony.. now who says old dogs can't learn new tricks? ;) I would love a dislike button! Bet I would come in second on that one! LOL bec

Healthy boundaries take time and hard work to get. Its a very slow process. If your in therapy I would bring this subject up and start working on small boundaries so that you can work towards the bigger ones. You can not change anyone but yourself. Trying to change her is just an exercise in...

Glad to hear the bike went to a good home. Always nice to see that level of excitment in someone! :) bec

Lets break this down: She "demands" lunch. You decline (good for you.). She retaliates by blocking you, then harrassing you. * this is an abusive pattern* She then blocks you on a thursday until sunday, every week for 3 weeks. *pattern of abuse... punishment* This also raises an alarm bell...

Nope I have shared everything that I know and even what is suspected to be hidden behind the amnesia. I am very very honest with her and it helps me. That's all the counts in my book. bec
