    Research Help needed. Voices of your CPTSD

    Hello friends! ? They call us weird and freaks, those who like drama and acting out, those who go numb and freeze, never realising it is not our about choice but constant mode of survival. When the body is detached from your mind, when you try hard to see another world through cognitive...

    A stranger in the mirror

    I rarely look in the mirror but when I go past it I feel like there is a woman staring at me. What is that? I don't think its a depersonalasation, I feel it another way when I experience it. Can it be smth with cognitive distortions? Because for me how I feel inside and how I look is...

    Me and sex - advice needed (inspired by sex and ptsd thread)

    " ...venting, sharing and asking questions.." well, that line finally helped me to speak up. I even didn't tell about it to my therapist. There is so much work at sessions that is why I often think sex talk is a thing I can't afford now. Sorry if something will be unclear, I'm really doing...
