When you go to a movie, find out halfway through that there is a terrorist plot (I'm a terrorism survivor), want to run out of the theater but simply control your triggers, and stay until the end. That is progress.

I went to a movie and didn't let it trigger me!

I slept again through the night last night. I think it is only one of a handful of times I slept like that since May. I am hoping and praying that this is the new normal for me. I wish sleep to all of you up throughout the night.

You sound like me except for the startle response which I don't seem to have anymore. It used to be bad, people would walk up behind me and I would scream at the top of my lungs. It hasn't happened in awhile. But as for the anxiety, fear, and worry I have that too. Still after all these...

I am feeling tired although I slept through the night. Maybe reading my Human Behavior text book for upcoming school is what is to blame. A rather fascinating subject but dry when put on paper.

Many hugs are being sent your way. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family if that's okay. I think that you are having a normal reaction to everything going on around you. Please take care of yourself.

I am feeling an overwhelming sadness. It seems to be hitting at night. My lack of sleep isn't helping matters.

I am feeling worn out and tired.

My father's inability to express himself which leads to fights and him in a rage. And me being the target.

This is odd- I slept through the whole night last night. Then I took a two hour nap today. So now I'm wondering what is in store for tonight. Please let it be a repeat of last night.

Happy belated Birthday shoulderblades!

I've been up since 3:30 this morning.

I feel stronger than I thought I was.

I was wrong watching television while sitting on my bed has nothing to do with my sleep problems. I didn't sleep that well again last night. I woke up from 2 a.m. until 4 a.m. then fell back asleep. I'm starting to give up on sleeping through the night.

I slept through the night. Sitting on my bed watching television for a few hours before going to bed was causing my sleep disturbance. I think. I'll find out tonight.

Not well at all. I haven't slept this badly since after the last major trauma in my life years ago. I have no problem falling asleep but wake up from 2-5 a.m. and then am up. Or sometimes I fall back asleep. This has been going on since the end of May when my Mom passed away. I forgot how...

I feel better today after a short nap. Not getting enough sleep at night is really taking a toll on me.

I am feeling miserable just miserable. I am glad that bad days don't last forever with me.

Three things I'm grateful for are my family, that my sister's party wasn't as crowded as I thought it would be, and that I got home safely. A positive aspect is that I actually went to my sister's house in NYC. It was on the outskirts and I'm beginning to wonder if it is time for a trip to...

I too have shower issues. I took a bubble bath and it triggered them again. For the longest time it didn't bother me. I did EMDR on these issues and it helped. Now I'm in a bit of an upheaval in life so things are stirred up. I take really fast showers these days. I need to speak with my...

I am feeling better because I slept through the night. I don't do well with an extreme lack of sleep.

I am feeling totally stressed and on the verge of a panic attack. In order to keep my health insurance I cannot work. I don't really think that I'd be able to handle a job right now. I couldn't last year and that was a simple job. So I applied for jobs last week thinking the insurance would...

I woke up at 2 a.m. and have been up since.

My goal for today is to get through the day without letting my anxiety rule it. Which will be a challenge since I will be going to several stores to look at laptops. And I don't do well in retail.

I am feeling so tired. I haven't slept through the night in over a month. I've been up since 2 am. Hopefully my new doctor who I meet later today can help this in some way.
