i think its part of our condition , ptsd certainly becomes an illness of isolation. I find that being alone can certainly intensify the symptoms, and if your not careful it can also make dealing with them a lot harder. I remember listening to a marriage counsellor being interviewed, who had...

I can understand the anxiety and self defeating thoughts , yes its very stressful and sometimes under stress we self sabotage or in many ways do what we can to remove the source. Rather than think of your failures or give credence to your negative thoughts , think simply about the changes a new...

I would simply express the boundary, of no sex until you feel its right

exactly...youve been through hell and back and your still alive ....why...because you know life is worth living , you know its going to take work but it will get better. Many of us have thoughts of suicide , but they are thoughts ...not actions, we all want our pain to end , but sadly its part...

this must be such an incredibly difficult thing to have to carry , it is in no way your fault and grief can sometimes bring out the very worst in people, and words in these times tend to leave some pretty deep scars. As you say , you had moved on , you had done what you could. I read this and...

im sorry your going through this Radise, i strongly suggest you return to therapy , this is a problem that requires professional guidance and support

dont let the sick minds of others dictate your moves, firstly get support and most importantly keep away for men for a while. I say this because , some men have a predatory nature and can clearly see your weaknesses. Im not saying you invited the assault...not at all, and you didnt mess up, you...

simply if there is no room in the friendship for mistakes , then its not worth keeping. I am also very careful with gossipers, because as soon as you turn your back , your the next target

I can understand and for many many years always viewed my friendships as not being , they could fall at any minute type thing, oh if i say the wrong thing they will hate me forever. I have struggled with the same things in relationships and tended to believe that any wrong move would result in...

honestly.....this is sick, you detail stuff as its normal and we can all live happily ever after, and you have kids , seriously think of your kids and what lessons they get out of this , and they are all extremely unhealthy lessons

before you start work on any truama , you must be able to manage your symptoms , if they start addressing trauma without this , then you will find a lot of difficulty and i would blunty question the T;s experience

sounds like one of the troublesome young male can openers , they run ya around in circles and just dont cut it right

firstly ..when you lift the lid on some of the majors , you find lies and deceit , ive been there , been railroaded and left in disgust....i would firstly see the ombudsman at the uni or someone in a similar position...they are usually the ones who can get things moving

i can certainly relate , but over many years and a near lifetime of pushing it away , i came to realize that i missed so much from not allowing myself to feel love, it didnt have to be relationship type love , i learnt i could enjoy meaningful friendships and still feel safe, i tend to look at...

i come from a large family and in many ways many of us did not escape unscathed, my older brother and 2 younger sisters clearly have c-ptsd but fail to recognize it , subsequently its a nitemare family to be involved in, my father had ptsd from a couple of very bad life changing accidents , he...

im gonna join you ...arrgggh arrrghhh and damned arrrrghh

i suffered from a lisp for many years and had to learn how not to get stressed when i talked , otherwise it became a spray :) my kids always teased me by asking me to say six...i would say 5 and 1 - but overall . what can you do..just remember to talk slowly .

Ayahuasca is far different from Datura , and to promote its use as a possible cure for others is incredibly irresponsible , have you any idea of what can happen to people taking datura ? seriously this is one drug you should not be promoting and to say it could help in curing ptsd is dangerous...

honestly dude no offence but i think your FOS

Datura ...are you crazy ....seriously you say your cured and you take datura ....im sure not many know the full extent of datura ...but cmon you think your curred and your playing with extreme danger ...datura can cause you to act out your hallucinations, it can also lead to permament blindness...

Glara in all honesty , this doesn't sound very healthy - i would strongly suggest you get some support - just because its ptsd behaviour or so he says , it does not make it normal or right , seriously you need to take a step back and gain a healthy perspective. When someone cuts you off like...

i think youve made a gutsy decision and ought to be applauded for taking such a healthy no BS approach, the first rule with PTSD behaviour is very clear boundaries. You have witnessed the true ugly side of ptsd mixed with substances , they tend to take away any hope of reason sometimes. Stay...

im sorry your in this spot , i am a male with ptsd and never in my 15+ year marriage did i find the need to flirt and play up - its such a poor excuse for bad behaviour its both insulting and laughable ...id look after myself firstly , and then decide what happens with the relationship...
