If you're in Ontario and want to PM me I know a lot of great programs!

Oh dear. I had to stop too so I know how painful (literally and figuratively) that is. :( I bet even sitting down you could out dance me any day! :hug:

Someone sent this to me and I thought watching it might be cathartic for you? Link Removed

I got kicked out of ballet :P They said it was because I was too accident-prone (but they let me stay in jaz and tap). I can take a hint ;) Where I lived was really small and not very friendly in many ways so we didn't really have any male dancers. And definitely none who could do lifts or any...

I know you dont want sympathy so my question is this: what type of dance did you do? *hugs*

Can you talk to acadeic counselling and get extensions for assignments? My school considers me disabled so I can get extra time (within limits) if I need it. Good luck!

Discreet coping skills: reading through old notes/ doodling/ posting on here. Personally although its a pain I just take teachers aside and be pretty upfront that it isnt their fault but that what they say can have ripple effects. Or get academic counselling to talk to them

*hugs* if you want them. Are you in counselling? It may help :) Sometimes we give off "omg I'm barely hanging on" vibes and it makes people uncomfortable. I'm not saying you're doing anythin wrong -- you aren't-- but inexperiencd people sometimes react by not cunnecting with people who they deem...

I don't have anything to make it better but I have gone through things with my university so I know how it feels. PM me if you need an ear and *hugs* if you want them

Personally (and others may disagree), unless you have great building security it ay be best to move somewhere were he can't find you. Living in the same place may keep you constantly afraid in ways that living somewhere else may not

Go to a mall or someplace public like that where police are nearby and would hear a scream. Make sure that wherever you go there are people around

Welcome and *hugs* if you want them!

To when you stop paying, you dont have to be there

Can you move out around the same time you give your notice?

Can you have a friend go with you?

I have severe Somatoform (I've nearly died) so if you want to talk about it, PM me. It is hard to get through but it is possible :)

*hugs* and welcome! You've had a lot of obstacles thown your way and you seem to be dealing really well! I hope this site helps you further your healing!

Your T might be right and, not sure if this helps, but I've never been able to cry in therapy. It just hasn't happened. I tend not to trust myself to cry in any public space (which I consider therapy to be one). Maybe you need to let yourself cry with a friend first or something if you feel more...

I'm not sure if this helps but sometimes we (PTSD folk) don't realise how not fine we are in a relationship until we get in one. For me, I thought I was fine and then after almost having sex with my bf I had stress-related seizures. I was completely unaware that I would respond that way. I also...

When I feel that way I write out a cussing letter and then just delete it after. It could help :)

Welcome to the forum and congrats on taking the first step towards healing! The thing I would suggest above all is to force yourself to tell the truth-- its frequently easier to dance around it but the longer you do that dance, the harder the healing process is.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know nothing I can say will help, so I offer hugs and an ear should you need it

That's totally understandable. It's stressful doing appts in the first place when it's just for a regular doc. These kinds of things when you have to be your own advocate because really hard to deal with. Sometimes I just pick one thing and let the others slide because I know any more appts in a...

Have you tried physio? I found that it helped a lot

I have pain disorder so I know how you feel. I woke up this morning and everything was on fire and meds don't help. I haven't tried ot but maybe somatic experiencing would help? Also I find distraction techniques to be the most useful ( I watch British panel shows). I know it's hard but keep...
