    my lungs were so much better after just a couple of days without smoking. I should not let her get in my head. women have all kinds of support when they are abused and ready to get out of the relationship. Not enough I know. but men got nothing for support. And saying your a victim of a woman...

    That sounds better. I envy you baby time. I miss holding my babies, and no grand kids on the horizon.

    Of course you will. I see that you both need this space. But maybe there is a less abrupt way to cut the apron strings? If you were there and then suddenly weren't, I can see that causing a flare up of abandonment issues. I know you need your space. is there a way to make both happen?

    How old is she? (Feel less agitated, but I did just break down and smoke, so guilt and shame are back)( and the tv is down) Wow, I am pathetic!

    okay, after anger comes depression, so that is where I am now. With agitation. Thanks you are right. I should not react this way. I don't tolerate bullies. I was four when I tore into one, long story but formative. I seldom find a problem I can't out think, and those left I can physically...

    News News And Triggers

    Right, done for the day, or a reason to pump adrenalin and rant about the dumb asses, perhaps getting the goat of someone opposing my view and have an argument. am I distracting myself from my problems or do I, like other sufferers out here, have excessive empathy for disaster/violence/war...

    News News And Triggers

    Does the news trigger your crap too? Like mass shootings and bombings? Like politicians wanting to play war with another broken country posing no threat? Or is that just my stuff I am reacting to? I don't make a point of seeing the news anymore but I still hear about it. Short of becoming a...

    Thank you Snowjo, I am finding good and calm people in my life. I am really pumped about the interview in the afternoon tomorrow. I have researched the company, I know what they do and why they need me. I have developed a much more calm appearance, I am still jumpy inside but I don't show it as...

    What Are You Grateful For Today?

    In 2011, I got hit by a car and sprained my whole body. I was in extreme pain for 6 months and lost my job, lesser but still lots of pain for 2years and then about 3 months ago I declared myself pain free on face book. My hip flexor and quadricep found that the right moment to go on strike. They...

    So, no, i did not get a job. yet. I have an interview for a job that will take me to the Richmond area tomorrow. it is cool and high tech and as long as they stay out of the DOD applications for the technology, I can work for them. (I could have been working for the various offensive weapons...

    I have been wondering if it is a net good or bad to be out here. I get re triggered by a lot of the stuff I read. But mild re exposure should help with the extinction function, right? But this has been a long day. And there was another last weekend I think, dropped me, same topic. Maybe its...

    My Emdr Experience

    Sounds about right. I found mindfulness to be helpful. What happened, happened. That can't be changed. It is part of you. There was an article in huffington post on a person learning to deal with an anxiety disorder. It seems we need anxiety or we would never get out of bed! But managing it is...

    Today's Session

    Um, I think getting out here on line may be a good therapy for too much anxiety. Maybe you can find some conversation and support here and then maybe just the big stuff for the therapist. I do get it though, the support is needed, you found some, you use it. Good luck. And good job getting out...
