I ditto the above!!! There are resources and numbers for help! Msg me if you need the numbers.

I am not sure about the exact distorted cognition but find a lot of absolutes; this always happens, things never go right.... When I get depressed I try to write it out and see if it's situational; like a bad roommate stressing me out and what steps to change; get out more, ignore.. Or job...

Like I tell the kids; just gonna give your arm a little hug when taking Blood pressure. Treat yourself after! Anything u like as a reward!

Welcome Blackjack! This forum has the group of people that really understand what you are going through! And if they don't, they still offer the best advice to get you to someone who will. You are understood here! My family really wanted to help me but just didn't understand PTSD. I don't...

Unfortunately not all information relayed to medical personnel gets relayed and if it does sometimes the staff are too busy to read through the chart cuz they are busy doing for the person. So many people have no significant other, you are not alone!!! I had a friend pregnant with triplets and...

Fadeaway; hugs and hugs to you!!!! It seems your husband is having his own hard time and can't be there for you right now. Sounds like he really really needs help. You deserve hugs and support! I just think he needs more help before he can be there Hope you find a great support system...

Just putting in my two cents to a heated subject; sin causes death, destruction, illness, suffering... The people that hurt and tortured us had a sin problem. God did not want them to hurt us. That's my take on it. He wants to be invited into people's lives to help people not hurt others and...

I give people trust until they screw me over or lose my trust. If they lie, break too many plans, are mean to their animals or kids around me, and like you depends on situation. Some people I will share stories but don't trust their driving ha ! Being hyper vigilant has the benefit of picking...

Maybe if you switched fields it would be a fresh start; many people switch careers. Can you think of anyone personally there that you could use as a reference? I wouldn't give new potential employers too much info, volunteering is awesome. Can you put anything else on your resume that...

Everyone goes through more needy times than at others! No stress!! Don't be embarrassed it's normal! The only thing is the self injury- could you draw pictures of hitting yourself instead? I've always been happy after I reached out to others. Sometimes you have to go through a few people to...

Awwwww Stickler!!!! Hugs to you if you accept! You are not evil or drain any thing bad from you to others! I have not ever heard you act like that in writing! You and your alters are adorable, supportive, caring and deserve the same! I think the beating or cutting is a form of getting any...

All I have been doing is cleaning lately; cleaning out my grandparents house of 40 years, tons of stuff and still more to do. Then there's my mess; also tons of stuff even though I try to go through stuff every 7-8 years and have garage sales... Got a storage unit and trying to organize with...
