Many things are marketed as handmade but little online search and one can find similar items in ebay or Amazon with a fraction of the cost and in big bunches. I am wondering would there be other...

    I don't think my therapist listens 😕

    I think that diagnosis might be useful in the beginning of the therapy as it it really scary to live with symptoms that none seems understand. But I get that later on it might be good idea try to beyond diagnosis are we are much more than our diagnosis. Still if T from the beginning refuses to...

    Derealisation? Or secondary trauma??

    That's a really good analogy 😍 You have survived from so much! And also learned to survive along the way even I believe it hasn't been exactly easy.

    Redundant jobs, refugees, PTSD break

    Interesting I too listen to true crime podcasts while waiting to sleep. Sometimes it feels it helps me to get more in touch with my fears and anxiety but I try not to do it too much as it can get me in a pretty pessimistic mood.
