Last night's sleep was typical, tossing and turning, bad dreams and having to get up for a while to do something to use up the excessive energy the dream left me with. I typed in my journal to settle my mind a bit and that helped, then got up and folded laundry. I went back to sleep and got 2...

I know medical things can be frightening and doctors like to think they know it "all"...some is helpful, some isn't. No one knows you better than you know yourself. I hope you get the proper help you need so you can enjoy your life. Here at MyPTSD, I've found a wealth of information that has...

Welcome! It's never too late to start finding what is helpful for you! There's a lot of helpful information and resources as well as understanding people here. I've learned a lot since I joined about a week ago. I hope you find what you came for and I wish you the best!

Thank you, ladee! It looks like my style of relaxation! I've been getting tired of the block stacking game...looking forward to Zentangle!

Sorry to hear you have disturbed sleep also. I know the feeling of not being able to just roll over and go back to sleep, gotta get calmer...and yes, it does make the next day tiring. If I nap, I ruin the next night's sleep. Earbuds! Great idea! Hoping you find calmness soon and pleasant dreams!

Zentangle looks amazing!!!! Thank you for sharing! A great way to un-tangle my edgy brain!

2:50am, what a time to wake up! I wish dreaming was optional! I know things have been on my mind a lot lately because I had to share my accident information with someone I may be spending the rest of my life with and it wouldn't be fair not to tell him. I had a lot of anxiety preparing to tell...

Thank you. It's taken many years but I'm so glad I never gave up!

By the time people reach my age they have aches and pains all over. A lot of mine have become "normal" because they have been with me for so long and I have learned to live with them. There are others the almost stop my day. Instead of taking a pill to stop the head pain, I wear a knitted beanie...

Beautiful! I have been trying to show a similar picture but it gets to 6% and stops. Winter is beautiful!

Today is another beautiful day! It's actually a headache day, but I'm going to make it beautiful anyway, doggonnit! The below freezing temperatures wake up pain in my head where it had been fractured severely and radiates to my eye. Nothing new, just winter life. I don't use medication, I'm...

Oops the photo was left out, couldn't find the Delete button to redo.

Utah winter. 9 degrees tonight!

No better time than now! I want another Aloe Vera plant but I already know it's fate! They're great for healing. (if I don't go near them!)

Nice work, Green Thumb! I can't even grow weeds!

It's ironic that I've spent the last 25 years only leaving my house once a month to get groceries and pick up the mail. Now that my special friend and I have become very close and have started going out together and having fun, being locked down isn't voluntary for me anymore. I had got used to...

Welcome! You impress me with your understanding of yourself and symptoms, progress! I'm relatively new also and have found there are others who understand. It's a relief! I hope you find what you came here for!

Welcome, Weezley! Lots of understanding people here!

You were a good friend to her and were there for her when she needed help most. The down side is it took a toll on you, as it would most people. I hope in the future, she'll remember it wasn't a good idea to use those things and avoid feeling miserable. It's hard to take care of yourself and...

I have Mindfulness and Headspace added on my phone. There are many others also.

Making progress After my mom passed away, I had many boxes of papers and photos to sort. Back then, paper photos were still popular, some I kept, some I didn't. While I was in the hospital after the accident, I wasn't able to eat food for a couple of months. I got my nutrition through a tube...

Grateful for being alive and making progress, for my cats, my home, staying warm, my special guy and new supportive friends here!

Watching old movies

Doritos and Dr Pepper
