    What would you do?

    Oh noooooo..... And you are still with her? Are you able to leave?

    Arrrgh...

    Yeah... I archived her messages for now until I am ready to pick back up here I left off. I also unfriended her on fb because it is too much for me to deal with.

    Arrrgh...

    Thanks. I will think about unfriending her because it is really getting on my last nerve and I don't need the extra stress.

    What would you do?

    Maybe you should sit down and have a talk with him, and try to find out why he didn't do anything for you for those holidays? Try to stay calm. Men aren't very good at communicating. My husband told me the reason why he didn't buy me anything for all those years before his mom died was...

    Arrrgh...

    Hey everyone.... Recently I accepted my mother's request to be friends on facebook, and you know, on some days I feel like crap, so I post a meme about how I am feeling and then she messages me about it... Okay, fine... No big deal, right!? But then... She asks me to take it down! And to me...

    I think he is trying to push me to suicide.

    Lol Social services is the cause of my PTSD. Social services is not an option. I will look into other options.

    I think he is trying to push me to suicide.

    I think my husband is trying to push me to suicide. My husband knows about my diagnosis, he knows the details of my diagnosis, and even though he does not know what it feels like to be me for a day, he KNOWS that I am sick, yet he continues to leave the responsibility of our five children on me...

    How do you feel when your ptsd is mentioned in public ?

    Well, I don't feel embarrassed by the label itself, as even soldiers coming back from serving have PTSD. The thing that I get upset about is when the details of HOW I became a sufferer.... It's just something that I wouldn't want strangers (Unless it's anonymous like here online) to know about me.

    Hyperanalyzing and overthinking a symptom of ptsd?

    I already was hypersensitive, but then again, I am an HSP Empath... I feel everything very deeply, and I can pick up other people's emotions and feelings and take them on as my own... That coupled with PTSD hypervigilance, I guess others notice I am more sensitive now. IDK I forgot to add that...

    Females: ptsd and pms

    Well, I just finished menstruation, and I noticed that when I was having my period, I was extra snappy towards my husband. But now, I am cool again, and more patient. I wasn't like that before PTSD.

    Feeling like a prisoner in my own body

    And you are definitely right. I noticed that when I was able to get enough sleep yesterday (Wednesday), my mood is a lot better now.

    Feeling like a prisoner in my own body

    This is actually great advice. I actually feel like I can try this and see how it works out for me. Thank you!

    Feeling like a prisoner in my own body

    I have processed all my traumas already. There is no getting rid of PTSD or its symptoms. I will have to take the meds that I am taking for the rest of my life....smh By the way, your theory sucks. And none of it is true, as far as the nightmares are concerned.

    Feeling like a prisoner in my own body

    I wish that I didn't have this damned PTSD. All of a sudden my mood just plummeted, and I am feeling really, really down. I don't feel like I have low self esteem, it is just my mood, and I literally cannot sleep at night because of anxiety and the fear of nightmares. Does anyone here have...

    Broke my 6.5 year cannabis abstinence

    If that is what helps you, it is not like you can die from taking Cannabis if you take too much. You are not an addict like a lot of people would have you believe. Cannabis has been proven to alleviate symptoms from PTSD. Happy toking! #420

    Medical cannabis

    It helps me to feel like myself again. I am able to sit and have a conversation with my husband without feeling anxious or any of my symptoms. It also relieves pain in my body... Not just emotional pain but physical pain so I feel much better. I take it at night so that when I fall asleep...

    How to ask them to stay

    Do you have a Government job? If not, then I would recommend Medical Cannabis either from the black market or by referral if you live in a legal state. It would really help a lot. And if you are worried about THC content, you can take CBD oil.

    Question about complex ptsd symptom

    Please don't do that. Please don't make me feel like what I am going through isn't really what it is, just because my severe and ongoing traumas happened in my adult years. Just because I suffered from these horrendous traumas in my adult years, DOES NOT mean that it is not what it really...

    Question about complex ptsd symptom

    Thank you so much. I will be searching for some reading material on it. And when I mentioned I did not know I switch til my husband told me about it, I was speaking about the most recent episode where I have no recollection of what happened during those 15+ minutes.. But yes, during past...

    Question about complex ptsd symptom

    Well, I do remember that when the traumas were happening, that I wasn't allowed to live at home with my kids and I had to leave to go back to wherever it was that I was staying at the time, which a lot of times, it would be a shelter, or in a train station or the train. :-( So I know that when...

    Question about complex ptsd symptom

    Ohhh okay. Well it was the therapist that told me that is what they came up with, even though my traumas were ongoing, for years... My husband told he is going to take me to see a Psychiatrist to be formally diagnosed. The DSM does not have complex ptsd, which is probably wht I was diagnosed...

    Question about complex ptsd symptom

    No, I haven't. My therapist doesn't even know about my different parts. Well I have had episodes where I go into aan episode but I am aware of what is going on, but someone or something else is controlling my actions. On some days, if not most, I could be doing something and all of a sudden...

    Question about complex ptsd symptom

    I honestly don't remember any of the episode right after hearing the voice telling me to go and get my shoes.... I've had episodes in the past where I was aware of what was happening, but it was like someone else had came forth and they were very destructive. My table in my room were knocked...
