I have had 2 sessions with my new T and she seems lovely but I just don't know if this is going to work. I had such a long wait (5 or 6 weeks) between sessions and my next appointment is now not until December. A few things ticked me off...but the biggest thing was she sat behind her desk...

What an apt thread ... I posted a #metoo today on FB and it kinda blew up in my face. My head is all over the place... I just wrote a reply and managed to screw it up ... I spent ages agonising if I should or not and decided it was for a good cause raising more awareness re the prevalence of...

I have this struggle every Sunday. Some weeks I'm happy that I have a headache or something so I have a legitimate excuse for why I'm not going. For me I don't cope well with change and I had to find a new church this year and it all just sucks. The new church is good, good solid bible teaching...

That really sucks. At my uni we have reasonable adjustments which is like your accomodations I think? I had to get a letter from my local GP stating what my disabilities were and how they affected me and suggested adjustments that could be made. I'm not sure if that might help? It makes it more...

Glad you are able to reach out. If the SI is bad please go and get help from your T or at a hospital. In the mean time is there anything that can help ground you or at least distract you from the noise in your head. Stay safe.

Maybe bring it to the attention of the police that a known sex offender is making films of public areas where there is potential for children to be present. It might not get rid of him but they might come round and have a chat to him about it enough to get him to take the camera down?

Is it possible for you to go to a hospital especially for ptsd. I'm not sure what it is called over in USA but I'm sure one of the regulars would be able to help.

Really sorry you are feeling so bad. Just know it is safe to vent here and people are always online to listen even when it feels like there is no one around.

I only got in last time as there was a cancellation. I am back on her cancellation list now so hopefully, I can get in again sooner. I'm hoping once I have seen her a few times I can be on her books and will get a more regular appointment.

I finally got in to see a new T last week which was good but I think it is going to take time to work out if we are a good fit... problem being my next appointment is not until October! In the mean time, my support worker changed jobs and my new support worker who was supposed to be taking over...

Thank you so much for your reply. It did help. I must admit things didnt get much better between me and her but only 1.5 days to go till i start the long journey home and i can have some very much needed time out. I plan on having some 1 on 1 quality time with my fur baby and just sitting back...

Im not coping very well. Currently triggered badly by my nephews 1/2 sister. I took 2 weeks off uni to come up to queensland to look after the kids (13, 11 and 5) while my ex sister in law is overseas. My little pseudo neice is around 5 and i just constantly feel on edge and severely triggered...

Not sure if it helps but you are not alone. I have 2 fresh burns and arms full of scabs from where i keep hurting myself. I currently dont have a T or anyone to talk about it with. Im glad you were able to tell your T. Take care.

I recently went through the loss of my T (I had 1 session to deal with the news she was finishing up) and it hurts like hell. Ive been spiralling down pretty badly ever since. The new T i was referred to isnt working out and so now I have no one. Not sure what advice to give you. ... Maybe see...

Oh wow... that sucks. That is like one of my worst nightmares right there. Try to be kind to yourself. As Zoie33 said the chair must have been pretty weak or possibly already slightly broken beforehand. Maybe write to your T and just explain how embarrassed you are feeling. I'm sure they will do...

I regularly get triggered if my father is standing too close to me. Im often criticised cause he will catch me cringing and moving myself subconsciously away from him. I still have no idea why i cant tolerate him within touching range. My T refused to go near this stuff as she was worried it...

So I saw my new T again today and it is just not working. I just don't feel a connection with her at all and I feel worse after leaving than I did walking in. I am nervous to start again and have to try and find a new T and have to rehash through everything again as that really set off huge...

I have cPTSD and for me isolating is a warning sign that im going downhill. I tend to not leave the house, avoid my friends and barely leave my room. Self care usually deteriorates also. I have only recently come out if a downward spiral of isolation and it is exhausting. Trying to make myself...

@hithere Thank you so much for your reply. I hope you are able to find a new helpful T. I will see my new T and will try and start sorting out some of the hurt im feeling. All of this mayhem has stirred up so much emotions and stress that im just not able to function. Im supposed to be...

No she never did call back. I ended up calling the office back on the following Monday and found out that I had been transferred to another new psychologist that had just started at the practice and knew nothing about her apart from her name. I have just finished my first appointment with my...

I am in the same sort of situation. I recently had my T finish up at her practice and I was transferred to a new T i know nothing about except her name. I got a call today to say my appointment has been moved forward to tomorrow. Im going forward trying to be positive and will go with an open...

I was hospitalised for a month at the beginning of the year as my ptsd symptoms were out of control. Im glad i went but i do get that whole not feeling like you belong or function right after coming out of the hospital system. My ptsd was a little better after i came out but has since gone back...

Oh wow i really wish i could have a chemical shower that cleans out my whole body. Yuck!!

so I had my last session with my current T last Friday as I was leaving her office she said she would call me and organise a transfer appointment with my new T so we could do a bit of hand over stuff before she finishes up and leaves the practice. I waited a week and never heard from her. I...

I get really bad ezcma when im stressed but weirdly just in one straight line on the back of my head. It always flares up when my ptsd is flaring up.
