    What Happened?? I Need Perspective And Clarity, All Opinions Welcome

    Ok so I'll start with a quick recap. I have been seeing my family GP for almost 8yrs for the general woes but also have a heart condition which requires a pacemaker/defibrillator . I was sexually assaulted by a stranger while out jogging, end of last year. After all this I was diagnosed with...

    Sufferer Treading Water

    Thanks for the reply! EMDR was ok to start with. I knew I was abused as a child because I was removed from my parents and made a ward of the state. I was too young to have any memories which growing up I thought was my saving grace. Between my second and third EMDR session I started having...

    Need Advice

    So here's my dilemma. My T's', my (yet to meet) Psychiatrist and my Doctor all have different views on medication and which ones I should be taking. A few weeks back I was having an extremely difficult time, wasn't thinking straight and sleep deprived. I overdosed on sleeping pills not with the...

    Sufferer Treading Water

    I have found this site quite helpful in trying to understand a little more about myself and what I'm going through. Thought it's probably time I introduce myself. I'm a 32 yr old wife and mother of three young children. I'm also a CSA surviver and was diagnosed with Complex PTSD last year after...

    Undiagnosed So, This Is Me...

    I suggest you definitely have that conversation with ur T. Just remember (and I'm speaking from experience) once you open 'Pandora's Box' you cannot close it - so make sure youre ready. Sometimes some things are better left alone. In saying that, for me, it's changing my life for the better.

    Invalidating My Own Experiences

    Sally Sue I understand how you're feeling. I am currently in the same situation. I feel like I'm being childish but I can't help the way I feel. My feelings from the past get mixed with the feeling from the present and I end up even more confused. I agree with Jane.I the best thing to do is...

    I Never Knew A Trauma Therapist Could Make Such A Difference!

    There's no better feeling than feeling comfortable with your T. When I found the right one, after a few not wrong but not for me T's, the hard work and healing really began.

    Emdr With No Childhood Memory

    Hi Laumarric :) I'm new to this forum also. I think you have the right attitude, wanting to overcome your past. Without going into tmi I was abused as a very young child and placed in foster care. I've spent most of my life with little to no memory of my childhood. Only 'knowing' what I'd been...
