    Sexual Arousal From Flashback

    Everyone's experiences are unique. I can totally feel that you are at a cross road and a major break through is coming. I keep stopping and starting sentences because I'm so wary of that. And maybe in over my head because I was not physically tortured like you were and I can see that's a...

    Looking For Sad/moody/angry Music

    Want to cry? DISTURBED- Sound of silence (riot beat me ahah) linken park- Numb or Broken. Angry? Disturbed (can you tell I'm a fan?) Shout. Or pretty much ANYTHING by Pantera had the power to piss off even the biggest pussy cat (except Cemetery gates, which goes back in the cry category)

    Sexual Arousal From Flashback

    Started a response, decided its too sensitive and I'm a insensitive ass sometimes. Decided to go with hugs for you both instead. @Ragdoll Circus, you're a tough nut, you can get a handle on this xxx

    Why Is Australia In Eurovision?

    I dont think anybody really knows the answer to that question We've had the odd vote to become independent over the years and it just never seems to come to pass. Somebody older with more understanding of it may have an answer, but no one I know. I dont think they pay for us anymore?

    Why Is Australia In Eurovision?

    Those crap comps are ALL fixed. Guy Sebastion was in it last year? He was the winner of Australian Idol. And he is a shite singer. Think he got third. So us beating you at something (yet again ;) ) is what's got your knickers in a twist is it?

    Learning Interpersonal Skills

    So perfectly put @barefoot. Read what barefoot wrote LFS, and then read it again. Awesome advice. You're just always in such a hurry. Like you get a tiny taste of healing and then rush ahead at a million miles an hour, desperate to share it with the world. I always struggled with hearing...

    Relationship Anxious About Homecoming

    Just mentally prepare yourself for anything, and hope for the best! 6weeks of intensive therapy may seem a lot, but he will likely have had to absorb so much in that time that he will still need a period to process. Dont expect miracles, and just be your usual loving self :)

    Sexual Assault Need To Switch This Off..!

    :( You're going to have to tell him. If you don't he will think it is something he did and withdraw. I know that I hard, but if you are intimate enough that you are sleeping together there must be some level of trust built already? You dont have to share all the gory details, just...

    How Can A Single Person Cause Triggers/stressors

    Me either. Did we miss something @EveHarrington? A restraining order. You might want to take a thousand steps back at this point if this threat has been made. Rational or not, she is feeling very very vulnerable.

    Client Expunges Grief, Therapist Traumatized. What Do You Think?

    Oh that sucks. What you yelled isn't exactly abusive, and it was over the phone so invokes no sense of intimidation.... But I guess it also does :( They set their own boundaries I suppose. Might have been handy to have mentioned this little fact to you however? I'm not a therapist, so...

    Poll Using Medical Marijuana For Ptsd

    Is there a difference between 'medical marijuana' and just getting bent? I went through a plethora of meds in am attempt to combat symptoms early on. Side effect after side effect slowly wrote each one off (most caused more sexual issues, something I was trying to work on. And ALL made me a...

    So Low

    Hands down, in my experience, depression is THE MOST DIFFICULT obstacle to overcome. Whether its situational or chemical, its a prick to get a handle on. And peoples advice SUCKS when you are feeling that blackness. 'get some fresh air' 'take a nice bath' 'do something you enjoy' Ugh...

    Shame

    Oh I misread! Your comment about 'both parties' being drunk actually appeared in a thread yesterday and I thought it was that along with your tv series that triggered this shame for you again I must have been projecting my own guilt onto you with that assumption, I thought you (Very RIGHTLY)...

    Emdr Question

    Hopefully it is in the same category as all therapy, in which the 'always gets worse before it gets better' rule stubbornly applies. They do 4 or 5 sessions total dont they? Can I ask guys, the criteria to meet before deciding if the therapy is right for you, I've read that it focuses on...

    Shame

    I think your story is exceptionally different to a 'they both got drunk so no one is accountable' version, and you have no need to ever compare the two, I'm sorry that you feel you do. I also know that I posted on that thread looking at the greys and not so much the black and whites, so want...

    Sexual Arousal From Flashback

    Yep :( In order for me to be able to reach a point I could feel sex at all, I had to let some of those flashbacks in actually. In therapy I learned how to enjoy one particular act by repeatedly allowing myself to think of it as it happened in childhood, and let the pleasure come, even though...

    Empathy, Stupidity, And Anger

    Yep. I've made it my lifes mission to try ALWAYS to put myself in the other persons shoes and understand their point of view. And I too look at the lack of that ability as stupidity (emotional intelligence is even now measured similar to IQ) The news is one that can send me right off. I...

    Please Help, Freaking Out

    There's nothing you can do now but wait. Lie on your back and relax, poke around at your tummy, usually this will evoke a response. Let your babies strong healthy kicks reassure you. If there is any risk, your doctor will ensure that delivery is bought forward to minimise any chance of...

    Please Help, Freaking Out

    Your fears are reminding me of my own after the births of my children. Making me smile. I remember them poking at babies stomach a little, testing her reflexes by jabbing her foot with a pen, weighing her and then sending us on our way home. Then me on my bed looking at this little thing and...

    Please Help, Freaking Out

    Not possible that they missed that many times (far out, they do a lot of ultra sounds there! I thought the health care was shit? In Aus you will get one at the beginning to determine dates, one at 20 weeks to make sure all the bits grew right, and a third at full term to make sure baby isn't...

    News Euthanasia In Netherlands For 'incurable' Ptsd

    The thought makes me terribly sad :( But I've always believed that the right to take ones own life should be in our own hands and not some doctor. The idea that suicide be illegal is abhorrent to me. Sometimes I think we place too much value on human life. Its a cycle. One that always ends...
