I have the same problem at work, my only prob is I'm the boss to 38 ppl and I have a chief exec who's my boss!!! With my boss I can b really honest but it's really hard trying to cover my anxiety stress triggers and flashbacks with my team!!! I do believe though on a very personal opinion that...

I think it's really sad but understandable that's he's turned towards drinking and partying , he probably hates it in reality and wakes up feeling like crap but unfortunately it's his escapism rightly or wrong? The other woman! He obviously doesn't love her but in his mind is trying to help her...

Let me clarify something that's niggling me , il confirm tomorrow if that's ok.?

Hey kas! Well done, an amazing achievement , I know what the forms are like and how detailed , so really well done! Sign language too, the worlds your oyster , I'm a qualified in BSL British sign language and it's not easy, so be proud x the legislation had changed massively on eligibility of...

I'm good at destroying my own life by my own selfish actions

I agree with lucycat , get into the system and more therapy will come. I suppose it all also depends on what type of treatment your having, because 6 sessions of intense emdr can be helpful and with techniques to help you , you are better off than no treatment at all. My gp referred me , after a...

I'm the opposite, I won't let anyone in because I don't trust anyone so I keep my distance . Too much in the past that destroyed me. I am a little concerened that this person is making you feel this way, I would try and detach yourself before it goes too far and he does you some serious harm. I...

Welcome to the forum Anna and well done for joining, the great thing about it is you can put as little or as much as you want and no one will judge you. Or you can just read until you are comfortable to post in your own time. I'm really confident that you will find posts that you can relate to...

Wow , what an achievement , congratulations . You deserve it and well done for not quitting x

I definately have the delayed reaction, I think for me and probably others i wait until I get home because that's where I feel the safest, then I explode !!!! Usually it will be over a minor thing , like I can't find something or I ran out of some basic foods etc. for me personally as I hold a...

Your definately not alone in your sufferings , you will recieve lots of support from this forum. Welcome x

Yes , yes and yes I have experienced these emotions of anger, and yes they made me feel really uneasy because I really can lose control. However after using techniques taught to me by my t I've learnt to deal with these emotions a little better. I do running, zumba and martial arts to relieve...

Ohhhh that's not very helpful katiekat I think that's a real cop out from your T. Surely she's suppose to give you more insight into EMDR and why she feels it will benefit you? It's not about believing in it it's about understanding it, and learning how it will help. And that's up to your T to...

Heyyy Matilda , really well done . I'm so pleased for you, I could feel your excitement just reading your post .what an achievement , I really hope this feeling continues for you.

Make sure he's alert and responding. My son had delayed concussion after he hit is head on a door and ended up with concussion . I don't mean to worry you but please make sure you have him checked out by a dr. Try not to panic. In my prayers x

Welcome to the forum, you will get so much support from here. Your letter was very sad but so true. I've often told my T who used to tell me to google things that Google doesn't have all the answers!!! Google can't feel wat a cptsd suffere feels , or the anger , emotions and google definately...

We are so proud of you Laurie and the special people in your life who you have written about. And you should be too x when I read your post it really moved me, and could feel the passion and fight and victory in you.

I have a small pillow that I have to hold the end of whilst I sleep, it's been all over the world with me!!!! I luv it and would feel so lost without it and if that makes me weird then I'm happy to have that title!! As long as I have it with me to help me sleep.

18 years of physcologists, phyciatrists , anger management , confidence and self esteem building, CBT, EMDR, EFT, faster EFT, acupuncture and more , lol and still going strong!!!

I've turned up to therapy and then turned round and gone straight home. It's the fear of processing trauma that I'd rather have left but unfortunately my mind doesn't allow that . Take each session as it comes, try not to think too much beforehand about it. I've spent time in my sessions...

I think your amazing for getting so far , don't be down on yourself you've achieved so much through some severe traumas. I think your partner sounds amazing and very supportive, he obviously loves you and cares for you a lot as he had chosen to comfort you through the nights, and much more he...

I agree with joeylittle . I did lots of research before I chose my T because it was important that they specialised in CPTSD and I needed to feel confident with her. I did check out all her qualifications etc, but that's because I have trust issues, not sure that everyone would do that lol . My...

You've just described exactly how I felt after my emdr session, I hated the feelings after to the point I refused to attend the sessions , however with gentle persuasion from my other half I continued the sessions , they def were worse to start with but then got better . Long journey, very hard...

Point taken. Sorry

I think you will find that's post was my personal opinion, surely I'm entitled to an opinion! I was sectioned under the mental health act years ago with severe depression so in actual fact I do understand .
