LOL compassion fatigue is what one gets from the constant stress of caring for another person. Secondary PTSD was about be traumatized by listening to ones trauma in a theraputic setting. Of course that is just the origins of Secondary PTSD and not what we see it referred to today. Can all get...

Actually the term Secondary PTSD was orignially coined in reference to therapists who began exhibiting symptoms of PTSD after extensive therapy with patients of PTSD where they had listened to our trauma. Basically the therapists were getting traumatized listening to our trauma. Of course...

This is what my official diagnosis looks like now. It lists PTSD first, then panic disorder, agoraphobia, Social anxiety disorder, DDNOS and a few others. What is being considered is how it is already done in Canada. It would make no difference on my chart. LOL bec

I grew up as a Jehovah's Witness until the age of 6 when my parents were disfellowshiped. However over half my family is still in the religion. I have no problems naming it because it's not nessicarly the religion that is an issue but the people interupiting it for their own behaviour. I went...

LOL no one can own these.. ;)

I was the original poster of these declaratios. My reason for this is that many of us do not even realize we have rights, period. We were not taught. It can be quite empowering to realize our rights and even more so to see what rights we are currently enjoying. The rights we are not recieving is...

Crap the quotes are still yellow! LMAO....

I am sorry you are hurt however, what the hell did you expect to happen? You knew (by your words quoted above) that this was the wrong thing to do. You knew you were pushing him. You knew you were disrespecting his boundaries. He asked to to leave him alone so you did the exact opposite...

Very Cool! I hated that god-awful yellow! Now it's all green! :) (mind you I am shade-colour blind so who knows what actual colours I have! LOL ) Very nice addition!

The mob mentality is very frightening... it just digusts me that this has happened more than once. UCK.

I'd sure like to know why you've thrown epilipsy in there.. what level of study are you at and what type of study are you doing?

I agree that you might want to get tested for seizures. I have seizures and what you are describing sounds like partial complex seizures. Anxiety or stress can trigger seizures and there is a form of seizures that is purely psychological. Please make an appointment with your doctor and get a...

No problems about the reserve, if it's helpful great and if it's not toss it! Excellent work there! Now to dig into why you need to belong and what is healthy belonging look like? How could you avoid the next situtation of similar issues and how to get involved in a healthy group! And you are...

From what I read, I see that what disgusts you about their behaviour was also something you were participating in. I realize you did not go to such extremes as the others but you still participated none the less. Basically you had a big nasty mirror shoved in your face, showing you the extremes...

BEST THREAD EVER. Really. LOL agree with every bit of it. :) bec

LOL I forgot to answer you. I don't have swiss-cheese brain. Nope not me at all. ;) Yes it is -30 f (well was lol.) My bike has been sitting for 13 years. Ex-husband owned it and didn't take care of it, then my dad got it from him, rode it once or twice and then it sat.. and now it's mine. So it...

If you look it up here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anesthetic you will see there are a ton of diffferent types of anesthesia! I've never heard of them testing anyone first beforehand with it. In my experience, they just give it to you. Ah I was disappointed to hear you have to be knocked out...

I know this is from wikipedia but... hey its my first stop for info.... I did chop up the article badly.. lol Delirium tremens (Latin for "shaking frenzy", also referred to as The DTs) is an acute episode of delirium that is usually caused by withdrawal from alcohol, first described in...

Probably a good decision for now.. wean off when you know your ready to fall. :) bec

I think that going off medication should be something that a) you want to do and b) you have the coping skills in place to be able to do. In order to tell if the withdrawals are causing symptoms or the meds, that is quite easy but requires patience. You will have to wait the three months of...

Love is an action. It is not just something you say, but something you DO!

It is not sad at all. Dogs are well-known for their unconditional love towards their person. My dog is still my best freind and I am learning to get out and socialize now. I have human freinds but none will ever compare to my furry four-legged one. It's a special relationship. :) Trying to not...
