    Relationship "unable To Love"?

    It is normal. PTSD has us all terrified. Has he ever opened up to you more on his Ptsd? Some people with ptsd will distance themselves so they dont get hurt. It's not the right way but for some of us it's the only way we know.

    ED My anorexia is getting worse

    Yeah I've been diagnosed with it. I am happy to report though that everything I ate stayed in my body today. My T told me to lay off the laxatives for a week. I was proscribed laxatives cause I end up blocked sometimes but my T thinks I've been taking them too often. I'll look into probiotics...

    ED My anorexia is getting worse

    Yeah my body doesn't want to keep any food in me. I'm making lunch as we speak and crossing my fingers it stays in. I don't know. All I was told was I have an eating disorder I wasn't told anything else.

    Mirtazapine?

    I've been on it for a long time and all it does is help me sleep. I also found out the hard way that the drugs stay in my system for at least 10 hours so if I don't go to bed early enough I will pass out in the daytime. If I notice its too late for me to take my mirtazapine I wont take it.

    Mirtazapine?

    I've been on mirtazapine for a while now and all its really done is made me drowsy. Does anyone else know the short and long term affects of being on mirtazapine? I feel like its not doing anything for me anymore.

    Sexual Assault Childhood Sexual Abuse And Memories.

    Well thats great that you were able to forgive him for what he's done. Forgiving the abuser is the first step towards self healing. Yes. You can make peace with an abuser but still not completely process the abuse. It happened on both sides for you. Not just your father but your mother as well...

    Sexual Assault Childhood Sexual Abuse And Memories.

    @turtlemoon I am so sorry for the trauma you went through. That sounds so horrible. One of the things I've noticed with PTSD is sometimes your brain represses memories and the trauma that came with it. The one thing about PTSD isn't that we wont move on, its that we can't. We are stuck in a...

    Social Anxiety

    You aren't alone. I have really bad social anxiety and going around crowds and people I don't know terrifies me. To go see my T I need to take a few buses, if it wasn't for my headphones I would have lost it. I always avoid confrontation too. Especially with my family. If I do something wrong I...
