Apathy and lack of motivation are my companion's and my enemies. Years ago I could make people in better shape chase me on a mountain bike, now getting off the couch is draining! I used to a real neat freak now I am a proud slob (if I find it great if not I will clean up next week and then...

Loneliness stinks I could be at the Superbowl and feel lonely, my depression is the pits. Hugs and prayers go out to you! Maybe, you are not alone as you think, if we experience the same loneliness, deep right!

This all brings up a lot for me! It would be great if therapist gave a crap and it would have been great if my first hospitalization involved a caring medic, which I myself used to be (an E.M.T/basic), Instead of being cuffed at gunpoint. I hung myself, I didn't threaten anyone at all. I was...

All I can say is I am sorry so many of you are going through this BS! I am too. It would be a wonderful world if we could be treated the with the love we crave and deserve. Peace to you all.

I like to stay informed about the world, yet the news is very manipulative now!

Slept good only one seizure instead of constant ones!

I am grateful for my wife and her amazing love!

Thank you for your responses I have felt so alone for years and like i am the selfish one. I truly do not want to be angry, yet it is hard not to be when my sister and step siblings are treated like gold and I am treated like a stranger. As a Christian I confessed all my wrongs to my family...

I had to let my wife read the letter to me and then a few hours later I read it and tore it up. It was short and just kept repeating that her and my step Dad don't understand me and don't know what they have done wrong. I tried to tell them for years, when "they did not listen", but did ask...

My Mother recently wrote me letter saying things like God has for given me so why can't you? It was in her "angry hand writing, not the flowing writing she used to write to my sister. It hand underlying tones of rage, like what have we done, why have you quit talking to us and coming for...

I have cut off all contact with my Parents and siblings because of this exact thing, putting want they want over my well being. It really appears like a dangerous game to be playing, to be involved with someone so disrespectful of you as a person! Please be careful and just speaking for...

Memory issues really freak me out. I have a hard time recalling memories especially of times when I could hold down a job or specific years of abuse. I still try to only remember the good years and keep out the bad. It all seems to fade together and then blur into oblivion. Therapists'...

I do not like shows on T.V. or anything else with references to forced sexual acts or strangulation. It sets me off, I was forced into confined space and into confining situations by too many different types of abusers. Things I enjoy are true life movies about people helping each other...

I am working on things on my own and really struggling with Idaho's mental health system and my rural location. Our son is Seventeen and a half going on forty-five! My wife is His biological mother I have been Dad for most of His life, yet due to some really weird bonding issues with grand...

We tried counseling, it was very poor we live in a rural area with one counseling company and the counselor told Him "He did not need rules". The further explained that compromising meant we should do whatever our son wanted so He would not be so angry with us. Later the same counselor almost...

This really hard to talk about. Lately my son seems to have increasing hanger towards my Wife and I. This anger can be over very little things (like thinking He will not get an equal snack with the other family members). He can get red in the face or give go to heck lock or jump up and down...

Welcome, and I hope you find a lot of very supportive people here, I feel that I have I always try to be supportive and respectful of others. Thank you so much for sharing I know how hard it can be. My grammar is truly terrible and I am still here!

CrazyHorse, Thank you so much for this thread. I too have dealt with "friends" that were like this and have now become very un-trusting of all, except my wife and children. My goal is to get back to where I have at least a moderate level of trust. I used to trust until I felt used and go...

Welcome to the forum, I hope you find great support here!

I have a real problem with this, sometimes I swear when triggered and one of my teens is one of my violent abusers. It is hard to avoid when He balls up His fists. It sure doesn't make me feel like a good example when I do it. If I can control my thoughts before I speak then I control the...

I almost voted no, as I still have some denial. Then I remembered lack of medical care for a broken ankle (which later re-fractured from the lack of care). Then there was all the smoking they smoked cartons per day, I have Asthma and had chronic pneumonia. My back and arms have problems from...

My self hatred is daily (lately) and I break it by literally smacking my fist into my head. This just great for a person that already has a head injury, now isn't it! Why is it I would rather deal with the physical pain, instead of the emotional? I have scars all over my body from digging...

Religion and being religious are probably not the same thing to me as they are to others, for example you have to be good or you go to hell along with you have to go to your place of worship dressed a certain way even or give specific offerings for specific sins or needs. I don't buy into that...

I believe in in God as a Christian. I do not believe in religion, example (your going to hell because you dance, or you have to go to church every Sunday or you are an addict (one of the only friends that never lied to me was an addict). I believe all humans have a creator and for me...

I was forced into poor quality therapy and not diagnosed years ago, so my abusers could find out "why I was making up things". You see they blamed me for what they or other abusers they saw as my victims were doing. Then about fourteen years ago my wife after seeing me in the fetal...
