Like your avatar, by the way!

Thank you, Heather (Ladyghosthunter). Whooh...I know exactly what you mean, just in a different way, regarding other strange things happening that are not very common. Yes, each brain manifests itself in different ways and at different times. I'm just so glad I have trauma specialists now (it...

Sorry to hear about your T, are they a trauma specialist? That really seems to make a HUGE difference! She was finishing my sentences for me since I could not speak at times about the triggers. I would give her pieces and she'd put it together, it's just that my mind actually went black and, I...

I'm just scared, hate doing anything this hard totally alone, afraid of finding out/learning more about myself. Don't wanna do this anymore. just want it all to go away

Thx Gia1019! I email docs all the time, I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean by write a letter? You mean to explain what happened? I just don't know how I'm going to get through therapy in person if I keep hyperventilating like I did and speaking jumbled words. I get this rush of...

OMG I have never felt this way before. I was so scared talking w T after dbt class, could not think at all and all came out in very strange pieces and could not explain in any sentences at all. Was all over the place and now freaking out. Plz tell me this has happened to another? Don't know how...

Feel like I'm living somewhere in between a nightmare and a dream...

OOPSIES...accidentally erased the last bracket to end quote after first sentence...See LOL

stp2012 THANK YOU for the suggestion about learning more about dissociation!!! I never understood what anyone meant by that. Doc has confirmed PTSD but now I remember (sessions always make better sense after have many days to think, plus you helping open my eyes) re: other stuff yet. Since I did...

I know, it really is hard to change. I only leave to walk my dog, take my dog to the park/beach and my many doc appts/DBT. It's so overwhelming I couldn't even read many of the suggestions here, just not there yet. Know doesn't help much, but at least you are there and able to inquire about it...

Interesting for me that you feel this way, my third day online here at this forum - I also admitted many things last week, too, and was scared for six hours each, for two days, afterwards. I could not move either, nor pay attention to a movie I kept starting and finishing, then starting over...

Oh, no, not this site (only have Jadie Rose here). I meant three different usernames for my own to use for different reasons - just my own test for myself.

J'qel what a perfect explanation you provided, THANK YOU! My brain can't think well lately and put pieces of anything together well anymore (not like I used to be able to at all, and I was an Accountant for many years LOL)...I just don't trust myself because I'm not sure which of me is the real...

Thanks! :) I'm so bad with the abbreviations. Thanks for making me think!!

You're awesome, thank you for all that!! You made me think and today I realize I don't even know what ADHD truly even is LOL. It's just how I could describe how I was feeling at that time and even though I do not know what ADHD really is defined as, I was picturing my sister and one of my ex...

What does tbh stand for? I am new to recognizing what has been going on with me for many years and feel fake not knowing myself anymore - it is often so confusing...

Only started reading the first two paragraphs, I'm really super slow right now and had to keep re reading cause things were coming back with all the past Dr. appts for my surgeries and chronic pain/ER visits for migraines and sudden falls/etc. So far it is right on!! Thanks so much for sharing...

Well, it won't let me email it either?? It's a site called "anxietyboss" (it is a secure website) Perhaps google it and then just search for Dr. Carlo's articles or search for "can someone fake PTSD" ??

I will add the link below, but I feel kind of embarrassed and have to explain something first :p One of the comments may seem familiar if have read any of my posts. One year after the sexual assault 15 years ago, I guess I went into total flight mode and went backpacking with a girl I met at the...

I get migraines, but this is not a migraine. My brain (I'm not kidding) has been hurting for many days now and I am so startled/sensitive to common noises (i.e. any door shutting anywhere be it car or house, washing machine, tea kettle...I mean ANYTHING). I even went into the ER because been...

Found this information in an article that I copied and pasted into my own notes to remind myself I am not crazy and not making this all up just for attention. After reading, a few times past few days, thought I would share it (in case anyone else feels the same way at different times). Not being...

I totally understand all you are sharing. I, too, have lost many friends over the years due to the same things you mentioned. I was such a positive person and would never gossip about any of my friends (I hate gossip, feel like it's a waste of time) so everyone knew they could trust me. What I...

I agree with Abstract above, who said "spoke to someone else here who would forget who specific people were when exposed to them.Because something about them alone set him off. Most commonly it is general and not specific." When I get triggered, I do not necessarily know why or how and do not...

Hello. Very sorry to hear about your sister, hope the Psychiatrist and Therapists are able to better help her understand what is going on. I'm fairly new to this forum, but have been in CBT weekly for a few years, have worked on my spirituality through private yoga lessons for years, even worked...

Can you possibly have a dog at your place? Mine has helped me tremendously, to get out of sadness/anger/etc.
