    Other Chronic fatigue syndrome

    @Dee Morris I have a small home thank goodness. I actually keep half of it closed off so I do not have to pay to heat it and because no one goes in there I can pretty much dust and clean the floors about once a month. There is a bathroom in that part of the house though and my husband messes it...

    Stuck In The Hourglass

    Hello everyone! I was away from here all day. The husband made me breakfast, and had me get ready for a field trip. He had my car serviced, took me to eat, then to grocery shop, which he never does, however he claimed if he didnt go he knew I would not eat this week. Needless to say have a...

You know you need to release it, and no one here knows you personally, we actually all share a common bond.... but we do not know who you are, you are protected behind your computer and...

    Other Chronic fatigue syndrome

    Solara, you are blessed I personally have CFS, and I was not aware that a high percentage of PTSD people suffer from it until I let my therapist know that I had been diagnosed and what meds were advised.

    Stuck In The Hourglass

    Thank You @Unraveling1 for taking the time to read what I have written. Sometimes the simple meals are the best! Many a time I have eaten the types of foods you describe ( I love a meal of fruits, or some grilled veggies) . I lost 100 pounds a couple of years ago by eating a lot of apples and...

    CFS is a completely different diagnosis (disease) that being said my therapist told me that a huge percentage of PTSD patients also have CFS.

    What Are You Feeling Today? Not Thinking, Rather Feeling! Can You Identify Yours?

    @franciemarnie yes he is. I found one, I liked, it had a corvette engine in it, a lift kit, the most awesome exhaust system I have seen in my life... I was scared to discuss with him my feeling of wanting a new truck because he is our only source of income right now. I was so shocked that he...

    Stuck In The Hourglass

    Random thought... Its a good thing I have no children living at home as there is no way that I could possibly keep them fed properly. On the flip side of that situation I do not eat very well when it is just myself or myself plus one. It's often too hard to cook for 1-2 so we end up having...

    Stuck In The Hourglass

    My husband is a excellent support too. He is the only one who keeps sticking around. I have just started back to therapy so I am not very trusting just yet. I started the journal just by going to the journals page and clicking on create new thread.

    Stuck In The Hourglass

    To those looing in.... I have worked so hard to personify a outward appearance as to not alert the general public that I am anything or anyone different than what they see before them. I am quite proficient in the act of being a " Chameleon " I suspect that many of us who suffer are terrific...

    franciemarnie, Thank you for the encouragement to keep writing. I already feel somewhat better for getting some of this out and its only the tip of iceberg.

    How I see religion and lies.... Religion... Religion was forced upon me in my younger years, people who professed to be religious have caused me great grief. Most who are in he Christian communities are always saying things like "God wont put more on you than you can take" or "Put it in Gods...

    Passing A Lie Detector Test

    You bring up a VERY interesting question. Now you have my mind wondering. I have had blackouts, the ones I am aware of are from drinking though. It is scary when you have not a clue as to things you have said or done and others seen and know. Here is what I understand about a lie detector...

    Stuck In The Hourglass

    With an hourglass you have to keep turning it over when the sand runs out to make the sand move again. With me I feel like someone else is in control and keeps turning the hour glass over so that the same thing happens again and again. The glass is too thick for me to break no matter how hard I...

    I have never seen ANYONE keep score. I believe that EVERYONE even people without PTSD have blamed someone for something, sometime in their life. But for someone to keep score, or to keep doing it... that to me looks like she WANTS to hold on things and be angry. Now that is just my opinion...

    My Trauma Has Happened Again

    bell, I will try to get into the studio. I promise. I have walked in there a few times, I just do not feel any creativity. Maybe I will go in there and at least turn on the TV and make myself stay in there and if I do then maybe I will want to at least touch my supplies. I totally understand...

    I've read every message and I don't see anyone saying not to take her seriously. Most likely you are referring to my post and twisting my words. And if that is the fact, then re-evaluate the words. It was stated to not take the blaming to heart.
