    I don’t know how to find a therapist.

    Hi there, I’m new posting here but I’ve read a lot of the threads. Diagnosed with PTSD at 29, and gather I’ve had it since around 8. My children are this age now so it’s hitting harder. I don’t know where to go to find proper help as everything is categorised. I keep being asked my problems when...

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    Thank you kindly, Junebug. I Especially like and agree with your last paragraph. I hope I don’t come back again as a kind person! ? I don’t think the whole thing is trauma specific, which is good, but I do question if my reaction to it is. Still pondering. I’m gathering that anyone would...

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    Hi Paul, thank you for your thorough input, which has continued my thinking. I just want to give my immediate response also. Yes, it has introduced great differences of opinion/viewpoint, so although terribly difficult (as you rightfully awknowledged) to post publicly, still proving good to...

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    Omg, I need to re-watch that. She aknowledged, actually pointed out, to me how this person has form for this...but she took her side. I had recently told them about my issues (vulnerable, yet outwardly strong) so that was that. They can skip off into the sunset. I'Lloyd never send another olive...

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    She wouldn't be the first fake in my life. Oh well. I plan to start from scratch with new boundaries when I ever, ever learn them, properly! I coulf not be bothered with any of them now. Thanks for the replies.

    Light therapy headsets

    Will look for one, thanks for the advice. I’d stay away from the glasses....they aren’t as versatile and you’d have to worry about breaking them.

    Sweet find! ?

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    Hi thanks for that reply. In response to the first paragraph - we have nothing in common, she's only wandered back in because her boyfriend left. She didn't want to know me for a certain period of time - a few years - and we have nothing in common except for all of a sudden, we are appearantly...

    Googling your therapist

    I have done this, twice and it made me feel the exact same way. I had full blown panic attacks over how I would appear. I barely saw much either, it was a two minute browse followed by two hours of googling "if someone could know if you searched them". Nothing came of it that I know, as I...

    Light therapy headsets

    Oh that's good - they are probably something similar to that. If I come into extra cash I'm going to give them a go and I'll give my verdict.

    Hi Grit, Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply. I'm sorry I took ages to reply back. I have read your reply a few times now, and your insight has spoken to me a lot! I will defiantly keep this in mind and it is a pattern of mine, unfortunately. She's off the radar at the moment because...

    Light therapy headsets

    Both really, as one of my main symptoms is depression and it worsens in dark months. Yes true, very sceptical myself. They are €250. Never have but am intrigued. I don't know anyone who has, actually.

    Light therapy headsets

    Are they any good? They're expensive enough where I'm from but I'm willing to try unless they are a total gimmick for SAD folk...

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    Thank you for the replies. If anything at least it got me to finally post. I know this is about me - PTSD symptom or not - and trivial in the grand sense of things, maybe, but it really annoys me enough to want to get rid and avoid her - and I'm down to one friend and many (not...

    Friend copying my every move - unsettling me.

    Hi there, I'm new here - first post - but have read the forums as a form of self-help for the past month or two. I've been nervous to post (and still am). I was diagnosed with PTSD at the age of 29, following CSA, multitude re-traumas, and general life shut and disorders that ensue. What's...
