Why do I have triggers so easily? I've currently recently relocated back to my sibling's place. A place where I get harassed and emotionally abused and then in great anxiety I flee for anyplace else to get away from the games. I've done this cycle like literally 15 times before. With Fibro, and...

I'm a person who cannot handle condescention or put downs at all. I was humiliated by my alcoholic narcissitic father in public places and told I was "bad," "incapable," etc. What typically happens is I beg the condescending, veiled bullying person to stop responding to my threads. They DON'T...

What goes on inside me is, if others try to fix, I get angry. I get tired.

For much of my life, I've bought into my parent's phrase saying, "We don't beat you!" So I'm not mistreated. He only threatened to kill me over and over, and said that the family didn't deserve him, and I wouldn't amount to anything....emotional abuse goes on and on. Now my family(other members)...

This is a very major life long battle for me. I take 2-3 steps forward at random, then 1-2 steps back it seems. I have 3 college degrees(the last one is a retrain). I want to apply for grad school, but I have financial problems slowing this down. I'm also very concerned about my own confidence...

I have been reading a lot around my Fibro and Cortisol issues and how they are tied to high stress...something about an Axis issue(maybe regulation control of the adrenals gets off-permanently after so much drama/trauma). Do others have this as a diagnosis? I will keep pushing Dr.'s for adrenal...
