Robert miles - children. is a good piece, it feels like hope and new beginnings but with wistfulness and dreams. No words.. Or something from tchaikovsky, so sweet is his music. I have too many songs I love but it's smell that brings back those memories you speak of for me.

I don't rightly remember as ptsd has effected my entire life. But I find it depends on the company I keep, usually with my own company and generally it's gee.. or jeepers... oh my goodness.. etc yep I'm one of those... But if I am in the company of people who swear alot I find myself...

What I need after an arguement is reassurance. I don't feel like it but I need it. A cuddle or a kiss, but intimacy works best. It's re-establishing the connection between us both that is most important and needed for me. When we argue, I feel the tether that bonds us disintegrate, whether it...

You are not a mooch. Personally I have been trying to get disability benefits for my anxiety and they have basically said that with PTSD I would be better to be forced into the workplace. .. I am still employed, so I don't understand, and am about to se a psychiatrist for help with me and this...

Hi all, I have a problem, my problem is one of my good friends, pretty much my only comfort friend, doesn't realise the extent of what she does sometimes triggers me, she is a high maintenance friend and I am deeply involved in her family now, to the extent of basically we're sisters. But we're...

I just love the endless entertainment they provide for us..

So, a little lighter subject for animal lovers... My little family is to say it nicely are a mixed bag of nuts!! Husband is cashew. Daughter is pistachio and I'm Brazil. Each of us suit our respective nuts and my daughter and I frequently commentate about what kind of nut she'll has a nut like...

Hi all, , This is the first time since my latest recovered memory, that I've posted. I've been delving deep within my psyche as this particular recovered memory I was conscience of it. So I experienced it differently than other times, it was so out of the blue, but the fact that I recognized it...

At this time no. He believes he is strong enough to cope and has prided himself on having good friends who have also been through mentally ill spouses. They support each other. On the other hand he has no other support beside 1 good mate. He has no family support but neither do i. I've asked...

Hi all, Well its that time of year again, this time last year my husband was planning to move out and on because of the hurt and betrayal i have put him through yet again. So needless to say he was triggered yesterday, we had plans to celebrate NYs but it fell through because he wasnt up to...

Anxious Too much running through my head Why am I always at the end of things, Is my husband happy? Is my daughter happy?

Just don't take on too much responsibility, you are doing well. When I'm down so much I put this movie on.. 28 days with Sandra Bullock. I try to remember that scene where she is throwing the ball at the mattress, you can only control so much, once that ball leaves your hand it's not up to you...

First off, I personally wouldn't take what your cousellor is saying with a grain of salt becasue they aren't trained. There is a massive difference between and therapist and a counselor. I saw a counselor at one stage in my recovery and she actually made me worse. She just didn't understand...

Dear Sighing, I know this situation very well, and have in the last 10 mths realized what I have done to my husband. We had/have a similar situation in reverse, I am the one with Cptsd and he is the one I have blamed for years. Can I ask has he been open with his conversations with you about...

If he is professional he will understand, you have to do what's best for you and if that means changing to a T that is closer then so be it.

Don't push yourself to much!! it could have worse consequences for you than what you are dealing with at the moment. Lucky for you you acknowledge that panic attacks are on the brink of occurring so as 551 said, see if you can get a co worker to relieve you for a few moments to get together...

Oh mrsmegan, I feel heartbroken for you, His reaction is everything that you hoped it wouldn't be, and I understand how you must feel. I tend to agree with laycee on this when I say he needs go or f%$king understand... I'm sorry for the foul language but this has riled me up! You need...

try to be a bit kinder, Math is difficult, especially algebra but hey, your there! you want to achieve something! But... Do you have any mental tools to help refocus? When our brain is yelling stuff like that, your right side of the brain is in overdrive, right side is emotional, left is...

Affair care is the site and also surviving infidelity. these are his goto sites and has been employed some of the 180 recommendations. 180 is turning the tables on the betrayer, it's a long list so I won't type it out. Look I understand that there are particular criteria to diagnose ptsd and...

Hi zoogal , This is my husband's goto site when he is having a trigger of such, 17 yrs living with me has definitely put him under a lot of strain and now exhibits many PTSD symptoms .

My belief has always been to be kind to others no matter who what where they are. Kindness seems to radiate from me, whether it be a smile or acknowledgement or a deed. I do it becasue it makes me feel good, I don't usually tell people about my acts of kindness because it should be a given...

Therapists are there to do a job, and occasionally we find the right person for us. when we find the right therapist amazing changes can occur. He stuck by you because you have built a relationship based on trust. I don't quite understand the transference thing your speaking of but this is what...

Hi all, This is just a discussion about homesickness and attachment. My girl came home from a 9 day camp yesterday, when it came to bed time she felt a bit sick.. I went to her side and gave her a hug and everything you do for a sick child.. I made a hottie (hot wheat bag) got her a drink...
