    Calling Troll On New Posters

    Unfortunately everything she's said is true. If you want a good example of this- hang around "mommy boards." Happens all the time. Then they create new profiles and start all over or they'll do this for a while until they can't contain themselves and then jump out saying "I was so-and-so, and...

    Relationship Ptsd As An Excuse?

    HA, although that should remind him that those problems can come up just as easily with soldiers. I can't edit my post now so I'll add here instead- I was assuming you meant in a work environment and meant for that to say something along the lines of shitty employees who are vets. The...

    Relationship Ptsd As An Excuse?

    Hmm, I don't know @Sighs. I know plenty of highly responsible and dependable civilians (and some shitty vets). I don't think I'd count those as areas of difference.

    Adult Coloring Books And Stress Reduction

    Now I have seen "adult" coloring pages while looking for coloring books. You can probably adjust your search filters, too.

    Adult Coloring Books And Stress Reduction

    That is wonderful, @desiderata310!! @StellaBlue That's how I get a lot of my son's coloring sheets. I never thought of getting some of my own.

    Adult Coloring Books And Stress Reduction

    This is awesome, I was just about to go hunt for this thread because: I was just at Michael's and they have an adult coloring book endcap in the art section. They had some stacks of coloring sheets on sale (and some sketchbooks marked way down, too) and several different coloring books. If...

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

    Yikes, @Anrish I'd be worried, too. Hopefully it's all just a false alarm.

    I Hate My Therapist. Advice Please?!

    I'll throw this in in the off chance that you do print it out for your therapist, @HAlex. I told my therapist only maybe 15% of my actual issues, but when I told her, I also said: "It's just really not a big deal, not that bad, I know people who had it far worse..." and she cut me off and said...

    Relationship Ptsd As An Excuse?

    Short and sweet answer- yep. The longer they were in and the actual job they did while they were in seems to factor in, too.

    Medical Haven't Had A Physical Since 2009 And I Need One

    I've actually never had a mammogram. I guess I'll have the same experience with that as you. My mom tells me it's much worse when there's not much to work with. I mean the exam by hand. Hate it. Way too much contact for me.

    Haven't been out there yet, but it looks nice. It's 69, so cooler than I'd like.

    Calling Troll On New Posters

    I don't remember now whether you were part of that specific line of discussion. My mind is not associating your posts with it. My understanding, while being lazy and not going back to actually read them, is that it was a hypothetical discussion for changing the site to avoid trolling and...

    Calling Troll On New Posters

    I've been watching this thread and trying to come up with a good way to say this. Now I don't have to. I'll just steal it ;) At least a couple of previous posts discuss excluding undiagnosed people. Obviously this would effect me personally, but beyond myself, there are many folks here without...

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

    Dejected, disappointed, kind of lost. Just one of those days.

    What Are You Thinking?

    I am thinking where did all of my strength and endurance go? I feel like I need a looong vacation from the world, but what the hell do I even do? I hang out with a toddler all day and I only associate with a handful of hand picked folks. Then I'm also thinking that maybe this is my norm and the...

    Relationship Ptsd As An Excuse?

    @Lemontree I find myself thinking this a lot reading supporter posts. I have the urge to say so, but bow out instead.

    Can You Respect Your Abusive Parents?

    It would be hard for me to answer the question for the reason @Eleanor mentioned. There are different ways to look at the respect thing. Do I respect them by showing reverence or deference due to their position as elders or family members or something? No, I don't. My dad is no longer alive so...

    Do You Believe In Horoscopes?

    HAHA that must be my problem, too.

    Do You Believe In Horoscopes?

    Do I believe in horoscopes: no, not one little bit. They can be entertaining, though, and allowing yourself to immerse in them in a what if sort of way is kind of fun. But no, just no. If they're true then the world is a completely different place than I understand it to be.

    Relationship Hurt V's Help

    Oh boy that sounds familiar. My advice is something you're probably not going to like: wait it out. He'll build trust in you and your love over time. That is the only thing that worked for me.

    Calling Troll On New Posters

    I think I understand this. I actually find it easier to open up in an anonymous environment. Someone sitting there in front of me, it's terrifying and threatening to me. My therapist- while I was going to her- would talk about disturbing incidents from her own life in relation to mine with such...

    Calling Troll On New Posters

    What you've written makes perfect sense, but I don't think you have anything to worry about. I think I've been here for 2 months. Maybe not even that long. I haven't had any negative experiences or been called a troll- at least not to my "face." :) You do not have to reveal anything. Y'know...
