    Hi Radise I know this is an old post but yes I have punched myself in the face. I often want to hurt myself. Interesting how you phrased it "Do you become your own abuser?" Wow..........yes and it makes me sad.

    Is It Stalking If It Is Just In Their Head?

    I have a question about stalking. My best friend is obsessed with a man she met at Starbucks. He works there and she goes there every single day to "study". She asked me if she is stalking him. I said NO because she never even TALKS to him!! She said she feels safe there because I guess she...

    Help Determine If Relationship With Ptsd Female Is Worth Pursuing And How?

    It sounds like she is being consistent in a way........consistently inconsistent! Maybe she does not have PTSD? Hundreds of other mental health issues she may have. I can tell you now, PTSD does not mean blowing people off. I have PTSD and I would never leave a friend in hospital like that...

    Medical Anybody Else Afraid To Go To The Dds?

    I am 6 months out. Some injuries not healing. I already had PTSD. It pushed me over and I have been excessivlely suicidal for the last two weeks when I learned some surgery might be needed that I cannot do. Each day I hate my new life but that does not have to be for you. I was born with a...

    Would You Change Your Name?

    My story was on the news so people who know me, all they have to do is poke in my name and there it all is. This makes me very sad. I can always tell when people find it because they act differently toward me. One of my friends just kept tearing up around me and finally confessed she had...

    I regressed this weekend....as usual i fled. drove for hours, crying.

    (((((((((CUP!!!)))))) Oh how you hit on it. Why is it so hard, fight fight fight and end up still there? Life a sentence and no journey! I am alone, no partner and I always think how nice it would be to have a partner, but even then, it is not always so good.... Yes, focus on the kids. You are...

    Narcissism

    (((( Alice)))) When you are abused and hurt, you learn to survive and that means focusing in on yourself to protect yourself because no one else is. I went through hell and not a single person helped me in any capacity. You know how it is. You are silenced and cut off and you are isolated and...

    Does This Bother Anyone Else?

    That is so sad but I think you are right. The soldiers can claim their PTSD because they got it from protecting us. I know some of the soldiers who do have PTSD and it makes me sad. They are not always getting help. A man was in the store in tears because they would not house him and his GF...

    Exhausted About Now

    I was born with a disability, so when I got PTSD, it was hard enough. The Disability is not an easy one, so the PTSD made things worse. THEN I got medical troubles and an accident and I have about had it. So here I am . I have no plans but why do I think about suicide so much? See how much I...

    Does This Bother Anyone Else?

    Hmm. I Never thought of that. I know some soldiers with PTSD and they suffer so much. They are compassionate to me if I tell them. There is a bond with people who suffer a lot. To me, the term "PTSD" does not mean as much as when someone else who has it embraces me and they feel what it is like...

    Oh Yes. Fireworks

    My PTSD is not combat related but I cannot do fireworks. It is so loud and unnerving that I cannot go. ALSO, it reminds me of when I was happy, some time long ago that I can't really remember. It just pisses me off. I know the fireworks threads are always up this time of year and hugs to all...

    How Do You Know Something Is A Problem?

    Hi Scout The older I get with PTSD the less philosophical I get about it all. If something interferes with my ability to function and survive, then it's a problem. Other things that give me pause, I can get around that. But when crap pins me down so I can't do what I have to do to survive, THAT...

    I Always Come Home To Me

    I used to isolate a lot. But now I don't. Now I have to be around people even if they are strangers! When I come home, here I am and it makes me feel really scared. Does anyone else have this? To me, it feels kind of good now to be around people so I think it may be healing but then again...
