It is scary! Grounding grounding would be my suggestion. I also found distraction helpful. I check out organizing clips on you tube and sometimes that mindless safe stuff helps me get back into a thinking and not feeling mode. Hope you get connected again!

I suffer too sometimes; I unhealthily deal by smoking. I healthily deal by praying and deep breathing, EMDR. I was also considering Kava drink from Fiji and Hawaii. It's a cold drink with kava root that is not addicting and supposedly really helps with anxiety but tastes like dirt haha but it...

You sound like you are doing everything you can and that's more than anyone could ask. If people only knew how hard it is there would be much more compassion in this world. So glad you did some self care! You deserve it!! I think when we take care of ourselves and do as good as possible it's...

You are valued!!! I also am having trouble with understanding the post. Can you expand on that? Normal to fear a time when things blew up on you! Sometimes it doesn't happen again. Lots of people are looking for friends now, classes, groups.... Unfortunately we can't change the past but...

All the support you should have and should have!!!! Soooooo sorry that evil happened to you!!!!!! Life can suck! Especially for vulnerable children in unhealthy and deranged one's care!!!! Mortified that that happened to you!!! Glad you are reaching out here and to a trained counselor. I...

I look at it like this; you were like a new born puppy or baby kitten; innocent and relying on others for food, love shelter. Unfortunately you got caretakers that harmed you. Lots of us and animals did. Yes you should have been rescued! We can't change the past. People care now and the...

What you described is a lifestyle for me: What day is it?! Yes it's Wednesday but which one? Haha. Mine might come from night shift work, irregular schedules, lack of sleep, head injury, distraction. It's a royal pain! Hope you find tools that help. I like my iPad calendar, awesome...

Hi, I have always had huge emotional fluctuations prior to my period. Sometimes it's every four months that it really hits or sometimes it's every month when I drink a lot of caffeine. That's just a connection I noted. If I take calcium supplements it seems to help along with limiting...

Fade, I am sorry you have already had to deal with innappropriate last words. People just don't realize the power of words over someone. On one hand I try to look at it as a bigger picture; their electrolytes may be screwed up and their iron levels from not eating and that can lead to...

Just an update; told my roomates yesterday and they said when the guy moved in the sister had warned them that he wasn't right in the head, that he got kicked out of his sisters house for going after his teen niece sexually. They said to tell the landlord. All quiet here now. Thanks guys!

You guys all rock!!! Thank you so.. Much for your input and comments!!! Really really appreciate it! All is quiet with avoidance. Will be looking at other options as able.

OH my heart and prayers go out to you and your dog!!! What a maniac! What is wrong with people?! Maybe you could lay low for awhile; out of sight as much as possible so he will settle down or try to do opposite schedules they keep and just keep to you and your dog and your business. Talk to...

He got angry and started yelling at me today because I was in my room studying yesterday and avoided him. I told him I didn't want to talk and he kept yellin then he stormed out. One other Roomate was home. I have a lock on my door but did look at the lock suggested above. Looking into...

He has stated he wants this to be a family house where we eat family meals and sit at the dining room table and watch movies together. He has said the other two roomates are like the kids and we are like the parents. He has talked to me about why I don't cook family meals, collect flower things...

The thing I've learned about erotomaniacs if you keep no contact- that is the way to go. Any contact sets off their delusion whether positive or negative contact. And I tried to just say hi and keep it nice Roomate but he went back into his wife delusion. Also no contact upsets them and they...

Thank you for your reply. Thank goodness I've done a lot of driving and getting out walking my dog but my school work has suffered! The hyper vigilance and avoidance has taken a toll along with poor sleep.

The guy has had problems with the other roomates as far as too much trying to socialize and they have reported it and he was talked to by the landlord. I think he is just lonely and refuses to make healthy choices like meet up groups, volunteering, church, neighbors... And tries to create all...

Thank you for your concern. It was written in response to someone who replied as a haha to that but I am sorry if it was seen as a real solution. I also do realize the dangers of firearms as I have been threatened with them and seen enough situations to know. I assure you if I ever had to use...

Firearms..... Hmmmmmm

I'm usually pretty strong and have applied non-violence training but I have been recovering from car wrecks and studying so I'm a bit out of shape. The guy is trying to get near me anyway he can today. I'm just so stressed trying to avoid him. You guys are awesome and I really appreciate your...

Lol!!!! We do!!!!

Have not experienced that but as a nurse have worked in some codes. You are there to help them and risk your life to do that- they should and probably would feel honored. It is written that most out of hospital cardiac arrests don't make it. They are already dead and you are trying to get...

I got some wasp and hornet killer that shoots 20 feet away and will temporarily blind someone, at my bed in case he enters and I'm a good fighter from growing up in tough neighborhoods and working with violent men and life guarding but I also have a bunch of bad discs in my neck and back. Have...

I have thought about it but I just moved here about 5 months ago and the landlord lets me have my pets; a dog and cat. Also I am strapped cuz I'm in school full time and have been working for a lower wage for the flexible hours and experience at a job I love. I think he should go but maybe I...

When I confronted him he got really nervous at first then he got angry and denied that he was looking in the window and said he was just looking but I took pictures of the difference between the other plants growth in the yard. He denied that he was trying to have a relationship but I know he...
