My hubby smokes weed for his raynards and i smoke it for cold induced joint dysmorphia so that small price to pay results in both my hobbies hands clawing an locking and me being his carer for all daily tasks whilst in severe pain myself as the lack of weed makes my joints excruciatingly pain...
You're bang on about the council but after over eleven years of intermittent homelessness I thought it might be wise to get out names down on the register for the sake of the longer haul. In the meantime its a case of foodbanking it, going without smoke (collecting dog ends when desperate ) and...
Yep and they can't do Jack shit. There's just no affordable housing all crisis and shelter can do is put your name down for a floor space in a night shelter and most areas have a serious waiting list to boot. Your right about the council though, we might try private rent with housing benefit it...
TBH we''re on the other side of the situation. We ( me n hubby) smoke weed but we always walk down the street to do so. The other housemates are aware we do this and have used this and the fact that we work unpredictable hours coupled with my ptsd induced erratic sleeping hours as a basis to...
I am a bits n Bob's type labourer (people sometimes do a double take but for a smallish woman of 5"7 lifting heavy shits like a free self defence class) and with that often comes funny hours. I have always lived with other people from just people who need somewhere to stay to colleagues. Right...
I was so ok screwed up when I had contact with my father. He just had to be present and my head and heart would go skitzo and it would take days sometimes weeks to figure out what the f*ck I was doing prior to his interruption of logical rational thought before action and the resulting light...
Intercourse, nighnty per cent of the time is too pain full and invasive for me to cope with. My husband is very patient with this and i try to give him head every couple of days to stop him getting too frustrated but I blank out a lot. I keep having to stop and have lower tolerance with choking...
Thankyou for this awesome post. I've genuinely lost count of how many years I've been estranged from my family for including my siblings but its been at least fifteen years or some shit so this gives me hope.
For the first ten months of our relationship I was hiding a lot of shit from him cos it was too dark and f*cked up for me to accept myself. Fairs fair and it blew up in my face as the truth will do and ever since I have been almost obsessively transparent ( showing him all my texts ect.) being...
Out of respect for my husband I always show him any posts that I write about him. He is not happy with the previous post I put on this thread so i need to set the record straight as he has pointed out discrepancies such as he doesn't accuse me of being passive aggressive he brings it up when he...
My husband accuses me of being passive aggressive sometimes and it really really hurts because I ALWAYS straight down the line try my hardest to please him which exhausts me most days as i find being a good wifehard work man. Not that I'm ungratefull to be given the opportunity to be that as he...
Me n my hubby both suffer from c.p.t.s.d. although my hubbies was misdiagnosed as bi.- polar as he was diagnosed before p.t.s.d. was commonly recognized outside of military. Our general consensus is that he has had more time to heal than me but he still struggles with mood swings and anger...
Please don't give up. Feeling really triggered right now due to mediation session being set up with my abusive mother and my husband complaining of blue balls. I'm not ready to give up.- not quite yet, besides I prefer the world with you in it.
Contacted sons sw; she recommended c.a.b. have list of family solicitors but its so freakin hard to get legal aid unless you have a court summons. Guess I've gotta keep shouting u ntill someone listens. Can't do this without a legal professionals help the law is so full of red tape and bullshit...
Received a text from my mother this morning (she orchestrated much of the abuse I suffered as a child) panicked and deleted it without reading it. I had previously been instructed by both police and my husband not to do so as these texts could be used as prosecution evidence. Not that I believe...
Well., 2 days into my clean eating diet and I've scoffed mini eggs walnut whips bounties raw chicken (Don't ask ) and nothing else. I'm smashing this! Willpower anyone?
I brought my beautifull babies up on the streets for the first six years but we were s o happy I promise you that. Both were conceived during separate attacks the younger when m y eldest was present though gratefully she stayed asleep in her tent nest that I was guarding with my life and my...
Yup I do this too., mixture of safety blanket protecting my body from male attention and feeling like a piece of shit that should stay hidden but I'm determined to break through these barricades by summer to wear summin nice for my hubby. I know if I put in serious effort now i can get there...
Mental exhaustion can be just as tiring as physical exhaustion often more so. Sometimes you need something to trigger inspiration and excitement to motivate the true strong and energetic you to bounce back into action. Physical complications make this harder I get that but keep open to...
Thankyou so much for the original post., you've reminded me how much more in control of my symptoms I felt last time I ate clean for a few months. You've given me the willpower to eat clean again starting now.!
Been trying to work up the courage to reply to this all day as this post is sooo triggery for me cos its full of shit that happened to me too and yes my relationship with food is messed up as a consequence. Wish I could make things better for you but I'm sitting here ritualistically touching a...
Yes I feel this too and it destroys me every time. Try not to let go of the hear and now. Easier said than done right.? Ron tells me this all the time and i just want to scream I AM TRYING but its still sound advice. Sometimes though I do get sick of the assumption if you're not THERE yet. -...
For a few years from the age of five my dad forced me to take his lithium. I now have a cardiovascular and thyroid autoimmune disorder which doctors I have seen about stabilizing my thyroid all say was undoubtedly triggered by being plied with my dad's meds as I was being forced to take the...
Women abusing men is just as f*cked up as men abusing women. Don't let anyone ever belittle your experiences. I think more and more people are realizing that it happens both ways round. Please don't give up on people, you've had your fair share of shitty ones so statistically you're due some...
