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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

So I have my uni final exams next week for 2 subjects and I have been trying for the last week and a bit to study for them but I just cant sit and concentrate for more than about 3 or 4 minutes and then anxiety sets in and I start freaking out. I only got through last years exams by dosing up...

So I have just come back from an appointment with my T. I had been anxious about going as I hadn't done the prescribed work beforehand but she was absolutely lovely about it all and reminded me that the whole idea of therapy and the homework is to help me get better not to make me feel worse...

so im due to see my T on Thursday. She has put me on monthly visits since getting out of hospital (late March). I was doing really well at first but over the last few months I've been slipping back to where i was before Christmas. On my last visit my T said she has been too nice to me and from...

Its been awhile since I last posted.. its been a very rollercoaster week. I finally got in for a psych evaluation at the sub-acute mental unit and although it was a long and draining experience at least we were moving forward. On Thursday I got a call back from subacute to say that yes I was...

I've been trying so hard for the last 2 weeks to swim against this depression and SI and try and hold on. It's been 2 weeks between sessions with my T and I really don't want to disappoint her tomorrow by going backwards. In these last few weeks I have lost a friend and my church and struggling...

I honestly don't know how wise it is to even post this but im feeling very confused... maybe im more broken than can be fixed. I have an issue where i think it might be a form of psychological self harming. Lately i have had this need to read erotic porn stories ( occasionally watch porn too)...

I seem to be on here a lot lately.. sorry. I think the meds my dr put me on are not holding as well as they were... most of the week I think they wanted me numbed out but from this afternoon the SI has been creeping back and getting stronger again. I don't know how to explain this properly ...

So i managed to get in to see my T this morning. Although my SI thoughts are still being intrusive she has ranked my risk level at high but not extreme at the moment. We began the paperwork for me to be admitted to the sub acute ward but there is a stack of paperwork and meetings and such that...

ok so yes i have not been doing very well lately and have chronic insomnia due to cPTSD and the medication i was on was working adequately for insomnia but not working so well on my moods. He discussed putting me on a new drug that would cover both insomnia and spiralling mood. Ive been on it...

I need to apologise upfront about how often ive been posting lately. This site has become a bit of a life line for me as i dont feel safe getting advice or help from people who don't really understand PTSD and cPTSD. I have posted in the past about how how strong my SI is lately and my anxiety...

It's my T's first day back at work tomorrow after the Christmas break. I haven't seen or heard from her for over a month. I was desperately hoping her receptionist would be able to get me in for an appointment as i was on the waiting list for an early appointment but that didn't happen. I am...

I tried writing a letter to my T last night but found it difficult to even open up about how serious my ideation is at the moment. I have gone from thinking vaguely about it every few days too now thinking about it all the time and working out different plans. I had to fight the urge today to...

Things have been super tough these last few weeks and I was barely keeping it together till I could get in to see my T next Thursday ... this afternoon I got a call from her office to say she has had to cancel that appointment and I now can't see her until the following week. Really don't know...

I am fairly new hear and don't really know what I want to say ...I survived Christmas only because I had some space to hide out in my house that was nice and quite and I could feel safe and alone... today my brother and his family are arriving and I feel sick and trapped as there will be nowhere...
