What surprised me is I physically jumped like some one jumped out and said Boo. I jump at sounds but never the sight of someone. It surprised and confused me. I hate being surprised. Felt like seeing one of my ghosts.

Tonight I accidentally ran into an old co-worker who I've tried not to hate for a very long time. I've worn a lot of steel off a resentment token over the anger I had with this guy. Fantasized about beating crap out of him. I was in line at Wal-Mart and I noticed him ahead of me. What's curious...

I have excellent credit but on SSDI the income is too low for anything. I spent all of my savings years ago on treatment.

What's not to like. Bizarre sense of humor and I get better looking everyday. Scares me too. Maybe but six of one and a half dozen of the other. Using the savings or house equity as a tool to get something else as I see it is the best option. I would prefer to rent the house out. The...

I'm very plain spoken and that may come across as aggressive. I will admit I'm argumentative but that just passion in my exchange of ideas. I don't intend to be intimidating but the passion may come across that way. I am being selfish in a way but realistic also. My Mom has enough saving to put...

When you write people speeding tickets or bust their door down, take their dope, take their money, and then them to jail it has a tendency to make some a little put out with you. Wasn't personal just taking care of business. I would often suggest after being cursed at for a while that I had...

Oy Vey now I've got an English person giving me English lesson. LOL English isn't my first language. My mother tongue is Southern Redneck. What would be an appropriate tag/name/slang/reference?

I'll argue with a brick wall if it's a good exchange of ideas. An apologist response would go something like "Sorry you got PTSD let me give you hugs and kisses XOXO". As far as posers I seriously think it's college kids working a Psych 101 course. I do see and appreciate others responses. I...

I like my Avatar. It's the Hulk. Google it. It's a comic book character. I think it reflects the anger that lingers in all of us. The scary part that we struggle to suppress just like Dr. Banner. (Anthony) Costs have gotten to a point where my Mom will need to dip into her savings. It's a...

Justmehere your assuming ...don't Some of the responses were not even to me. I was beginning to suspect someone had set up automated responses. I can understand some people's need to say they are sorry. Like FridayJones said about sympathy it makes my teeth itch. It's like giving me...

Anarchy with all due respect......WHAT? The base animal instincts didn't fail they just work all too well. It's what kept the Human Race from become lunch.....

If I had my druthers I'd build a house in the side of hill surrounded by a lot of woods and put a high electrified fence around the whole thing. That would be just to keep the relatives away..... I have patience for kids and dogs but little else. Anybody got a druther and $100,000. Me too on...

Scout86 I like the last post at least it expresses some feelings and thoughts that are productive. Your above statement wasn't nice but it does explain that your ignorant on a lot of the issues. I am stuck but not by choice. You must be a young person (I could be wrong) who doesn't have to...

Hey Scout try reading my Mind right now.........not very nice is it.

Well I'm glad nobody out there is a mind reader since what I'm thinking isn't very nice. Sometimes I don't know what kind of response I want..... I If I did I don't suppose I would post in the first place. I just get a little miffed when the responses feel like the Xmas card you get from the...

Has the board seem to be suddenly filled with Members who answer posts with huge automated responses that seem to come from text books or Members who seem to have no experience with PTSD. It often feels like college students looking around for themes for their papers or areas to discuss in...

I talked to my T and I felt a little better. She suggested I can find someplace else. I came home and thought there might be something since I haven't checked on anything else for a while. I went online and put in the area and limits into the search site. I just got more depressed when I...

I've been in a bad way. Stressing whether my Mom and I would move. Been talking to her for two years or more but she keeps dragging her feet. It's Goldilocks and Three Bears. She wants move but it's not close to her family...I don't like the house.... It's just been dragging on and on and on. I...

I'm not sure it's dissociate. You put on the armor of an English Teacher. It's like putting on a uniform. Each layer projecting your persona and protecting your doubts. (It protects you from the fear you may not come home each day) I put one on for a long time. Knowing that everyone is looking...

(Justmehere) I can't leave for several reason. She's 82 and despite her being pretty independent I handle her money and I make sure she stays on top of her medical issues. Her short term is getting worse but overall her mind is good. She has fallen a coupe of times. fortunately she only hurt her...

I don't move around much so it's a big deal. Let me see if this makes sense. Sometimes I worry it doesn't. My Mom is Social Security and I'm on disability. Together we can qualify for a loan. My Mom gets about 850 but the house note is 560 and her secondary insurance is about 385. Her...

I'm so tired. I'm not even trying any more. I just lay in bed. My Mom will knock on the door and say "in the bed again". I really want to jump up and yell why in the hell do I want to get up. I want to yell I'm resting because in a few years I'll be living in the bed of my pick up truck. I...

I take the same thing (along with another one) and it takes time to determine whether it will help. Give it some time. I think the question Nighthawk means is are you seeing a talk therapist or a Dr. or how exactly is it set up where you are? In the US we often have a Therapist for cognitive...

What does this entail? I've had some trouble following your post but I will admit I had to look several of your references up on google. I will say that I would find another doctor if all they want to do is throw anxiety pills at you. That said talk therapy has shown a great deal of success in...

It is harder to take someone down without really hurting them. That's why you always see 5 LEO's trying to cuff one guy. My dad was a LEO in the late sixties and a blackjack to your head makes you stop resisting real quick. Now days anything above the nipples can be considered lethal force.
