ive had both good and bad experiences....i have met cops who were crooked to the bone, ive been set up and nearly killed by a corrupt cop, but then i have met some fantastic cops , sure most are like procedural robots , but in the US we have made them that way with threats of law suits etc . I...

i do relate , i dont lie about money and things , and cant theive or anything like that , but for years i lied about my smoking (marijuana) as its the only thing that keeps me stable - no meds seem to work and just cause huge problems. If you corner me in an emotionally stressfull situation or i...

i was doing well and woke up today and am having all sorts of trouble , i had a major interview yesterday and it was the third, its a good job with decent pay , however on thursday i got an email that i had to sit for 3 online programming tests. I also started a fill in job on Monday to tide me...

As others have said , homelessness is a severe stress. Not having your own space , living day to day without the ability to plan properly , its a killer. Take it easy on yourself and set simple goals that are doable , under the stress you are under , you will react in a variety of ways , and you...

I recently made a decision to get a job, prior to this i felt incapable of working and the thought of being near people made me feel i wasn't ready. I decided to forge ahead regardless, but what feels strange is lately i seem to be able to keep things under control. I have had brief emotional...

I understand , and wish you all the best

If you cant have a serious conversation, and cant share your feelings , and your scared if you do share something ...he'll push you away. Can i ask you one serious question, what do you actually have ? you cant build a relationship on silence and no serious talk, have you asked yourself why you...

In regards to medications, there are many differing views , some people here believe in them , some don't, some take them for their ptsd , depression , anxiety etc, some take nothing at all. It all gets down to what works for you and at the end of the day it is only you who can make the final...

I cannot relate to the relationship parts , but I do know I am very close to my 12 yr daughter, and it was similar in the sense it didnt matter what state I was in, I could always find a smile and a laugh for her, and she also seemed to know how to get me grounded. But at the same time I had to...

i understand , then its still the same rules in a lot of ways , just because they are offering a service does not mean they can be trusted , or by the same token, because they are business people does not mean they are not abusers. In fact in dealing with the daily life things like this can be...

from what i can understand , stepping into repeated traumas is a sign of c-ptsd. I have the same problem and when im at my most vulnerable i tend to draw the most questionable people around me. People that tend to either be violent or abusive or dangerous or all three. Only recently i...

Firstly as much as he has problems as all sufferers do , i dont think its too much to ask for a bit of decent and simple respect. He is an adult , and if he is having problems then he has to deal with them. To leave you in fear that he may be suicidal, thats neither fair nor healthy and i could...

firstly , give yourself a pat on the back , you made a plan and even full of fear and anxiety , you went forward - not backward. The only thing i can see is your trying to conform , who says you have to ?, who says there's a standard profile you must fit ? I was put in a outpatient program...

Lately (touch wood) ive been getting great sleep , im a life long insomniac and spent many years using it to my advantage , especially in the early part of my internet career, when it was considered normal to either not sleep much or sleep at your desk. I have spent years working long hours and...

i can relate in some ways to what your saying . My path at repairing my relationship with my parents and family started many years ago , after many years of a serious addictions and self destructive behavior. I learnt many things through that period, many of which i still apply today. After...

many people come here and discuss their relationships , as you will notice if you read through some , you will see a common thread , particularly from the supporters viewpoint. The ups and downs of having a relationship with someone suffering from PTSD as youve noticed can sometimes be sheer...

i have moved many times both domestically and internationally , as much as we all like to escape somewhere better, you have to realize one thing , its lonely , its extremely difficult and if you go where you know no one , sure you will escape and no one will know your past and it can be very...

you do not deserve this , and this is certainly not the actions of a healthy individual. It sounds like he needs serious help, but at the same time, he is an adult and you are not responsible for his illness or reactions, and need to be selfish and safe. This is not a healthy or safe situation...

im sorry if i was insulting , but in all honesty what you are saying makes no sense , yes i understand anarchy and the principles of such , but who is using the threat of force to take property ?

i am so sorry to hear of your pain, its one thing to have this monster inside of us, its another to try and cope with it. If it is possible i would try two things , the suggestion that Casper1018 made about Prazosin or alternatively one thing i have found for years that stops my dreaming...

i tend to agree with you , i have known some high ranking and decent police who have stated the same - the biggest danger is always the old boys club

You make no sense whatsoever and are trying to turn a load of codswallop into an intelligent conversation and not succeeeding

im sorrry but that is undigestable

lol the dreaded in-laws - i had the same situation in Australia last time i was there . my oldest daughter decided that her future in-laws should turn up to a family barbeque. I was beside myself and was struggling at the time with certain symptoms and reactions. I had one good drink...(quickly)...
