No doubt you have a very difficult situation on your hands there, but the person beats you up, and I am sorry but shoving, pushing, will escalate no doubt. Your description of his needs pains me because it is so classical for a victim to concentrate on an abuser at their own expense. He is...

Holy cow, assaulted 8 kids and a handicapped person? No wonder that makes you ill having to face that monster. I was thrown into a situation like that and as soon as I made out the monster the monster tucked his tail and ran, not without sending some very nasty people after me, mad at me because...

Is there a way you can get away from that? There are many women like that, see them every day, trying to con any male into paying up for things they don't need, then they go on to cheat with another guy. Best thing for you is to live your own life.

It really takes a specialist to unlock that trauma and then to address it correctly. No person, before my healing started, had ever cared enough about me to even inquire about my childhood, including the monster I lived with for over 20 years. No one cared enough about me before to truly...

When you are being told you dont learn fast enough you can start keeping track of your own acomplisments, that will help you to gain confidence. It will show that you are learning and once you can rely on your own progress reports you take their power over you away. When someone accuses you of...

Little steps, it might help you to find a part time job in which you can increase hours after getting used to that challenge.

I know once you share that trauma it will give your T the chance to address the challenges, it is painful but very positive for future healing.

Well, one would want to know the history, cant really judge that, you have seen that T for 4 years, but it sounds aggressive between the doc and the patient and that cant be good.

Well anyone that understands PTSD understands that anger, whether it is a friend, family member or your T. It takes a long time to work through that.

Yep, happens a lot, I know what my feelings are but often afraid to voice them because so many strangers have violated me in more ways than one. Being stalked sure does not help, I want to concentrate on what is right, often confuse symptoms, but getting better.

No not at all, you are totally right. To discuss the problems of one another does not mean we are a psychologist , it means we care. It is beautiful to experience that caring.

When PTSD is a daily companion everything changes. I only lost bad people, but I understand that I will gain what really matters.

Tough, just talking about it helps. Lost my nequew to suicide, look at his picture when he and my son played together, seeing my neviews smile, remembering him and not knowing what happened to him pains me still.

When I was in first grade, a schoolmate died, a boy that us girls did not like. He was loud, brash. But that death never left me, right before xmas, he was killed by a car after his mom sent him out shopping. Crossed that busy street many times myself. So long ago, very vivid in my mind...

I wanted to do that too, but my anger has greatly diminished because for the first time in my life Iam being understood, Being helped, it is like walking in a totally different realm. Iam being shown so many things right now, traveling in a different universe, experiencing the difference between...

You have to completely disconnect from people that dont believe, only concentrate on your healing. Listening to all of these posts really explains how tough this career field is.

Yep, gotta agree, when a patient travels to a medical professional for care it is a business matter. So many times I come across posts that show patients who are personally involved in matters that are only patient doctor matters. If a medical professional gets paid by the patient then such...

Seems you and your T may have to come to an agreement to only dicuss one topic at a time which is tough, I know. Gotta say, a T that talks about his work,maybe even his patients on Facebook, the most widely visited social networking site on earth? Does not sound right.

I relate much more now to people with mental conditions. My symptoms mimic many of those conditions, which is frightening. I am surprised how many PTSD symptoms are like other conditions. Iam now much more interested in people who have to carry such a heavy burden , because now Iam one of them.

Familiar with that, despite a strange and painful childhood I remember being happy, almost as if my mind only chose to keep the happy memories.

I love disney land but tend to go to more quiet venues now. The reason one might experience more pain after a vacation could be due to the fact that the brain was not in active training. Whether it is mental or physical training. One has to stay actively involved with mental and physical...

Have thought about that too, not necessarily opposed to that thought, because there are a lot of sick people out there. However to be effective with such a weapon one has to train with it, has the responsibility to learn proper handling which Iam not prepared to do. We had a nut job in our...

Good post about those anxieties, sometimes I am just not interested in acting on them, all hell can break loose, I don't care. So many days I am dealing with triggers that are rooted in childhood right along with triggers during an abusive marriage, interspersed nicely with some additional...

Hell, I have seen people that pretend they are married to me without ever speaking to me, harassers and stalkers that pretend to have children of mine who I have never been with in my private life. There are all kinds out there. You have to be able to capture the truth, journaling what is...

Hey, totally understand where you are coming from. I am from Europe and when I learned what women are like here in America, well it just made me puke. Most of them are pieces of shit.... so there, I vent right here too. Not ever ever ever ever ever ever ever would any of them get to be a friend...
