KP, I really like mine. One of the things I like about it is, I can plug in headphones and listen to music as I read, or I can listen to an audio book while I surf the net (Okay - Pinterest. I'm hooked on Pinterest!). Hubby and I took it on a trip with us, and were able to listen to an audio...

I liked the Po shower cap one. Maybe he'll use that? The newbies here will wonder what the heck they've stumbled into, lol!

So... no comment from Anthony? :laugh:

Another one for "Girl with The Dragon Tatoo". Fortunately, I realized it was a big honkin' trigger just from the book (which I never finished). My husband has seen the m ovie, and tells me that even through it would be hard to see, I'd appreciate how the main charater handled herself and the...

I'd ask around, and see if there might possibly be another PTSD forum where he might get support, but that won't conflict with your being a member here. If he has combat PTSD, or his is related to a sexual assault, there are specialty "sister" (brother?) boards to this one that might be helpful...

Lortab can have a side effect of constipation. No question about it. I stand by my earlier suggestion, but also second Whitney's. Pharmacists are a wealth of information that many of us don't think to access. They're often easier to get ahold of than an MD, and may actually know more about...

Numbers 2 & 3 concern me. A LOT. If you lied to him because you felt like you couldn't tell him the truth, there's something very wrong there. It places you in a catch 22. Damned if you do, and damned if you don't. I was married to someone like that when I was younger, and I can very strongly...

Before you go with anything invasive, I'd dry good old fashioned prune juice. Preferably warm. If it helps, tell him Warf from Star Trek drinks it, and says it's a warrior's drink! :ninja: Keep pushing lots of water also. BTW, bananas can constipate too, so might want to avoid those for now.

Anthony, I immediately got the image of Yoda in my head when I read that. ;) I agree with Bec. It seems cyclic, doesn't it?

Way to go, girl! So happy for you!

Way to go, Girl! That's wonderful!

Let me know what you think about the movie, Anthony and Nicolette. And yea - now I see why you two went shop -o - bezerk while you were in the US. For an evening movie, plus popcorn, drinks, etc, you could easily spend $30-$40 here for 2 adults, but fortunately an early matinee is much less...

It might be a fair statement to say that many of as, as victims of various crimes and injustices, have had a great deal of exposure to those that do not handle issues in a healthy - or even adult - manner. Deceit and manipulation cast a pretty broad path of destruction, and there are an awful...

WHAT??? Seriously? That's crazy! Hubby and I went to the noon matinee yesterday, and it was $10 for both of us. I'm betting the movie will bring all the more interest to the book series. I wonder if the PTSD theme will be more prevalent in the next movie? I saw a trailer that involved a young...

I saw the movie yesterday. It seemed to follow fairly closely to the plot of the book, though there were parts where they deviated from the original story (such as the origin of the Mockinjay pin. Madge was not mentioned at all). It's a long movie - over 2 hours. And, though it didn't have the...

I don't have any great answers or words of insight, just wanted to let you know you're not alone on this one. My husband and I seem to see intimacy differently. I see it as the extra icing on the cake, so to speak. Not the relationship as a whole. My husband seems to see it in the same vein as...

Can I ask, please, what you see from the original poster that is calling anyone out? Is it this? : Or this? : This?: Or maybe this?: I'm truly not seeing what you might be referring to, and was particularly offended by the following: I saw nothing in anything Anthony wrote that makes...

YUP! It's settled! (Really, who's gonna argue with a pink goose anyway? :p) I'm going to ask the stupid question just for clarity's sake. Anthony, by "BPD", you are referring to bi poloar dsorder, correct? It's been awhile since I've read all the wiki stuff on PTSD, but PTSD, as a "worst case...

Don't you dare, Zip. I've gotten a lot of insight from your input, both in public posts and private. Just because you have a view that may not be popular, or bothered someone, does not make that view wrong. I wish for Sea strength to find his way back. We've all had times where what we deal...

I've had similar issues with my husband. I married the love of my life. He's a good husband, a good dad, and he's been there for me for 19 years, through thick and thin. But I think he has a natural tendancy to want to "fix". And lets face it, PTSD is not curable, so that's a pretty hard thing...

Hell, my PTSD isn't combat related, and the show Homeland still gets to me. I would love to see the feneral public have some kind of baseline knowledge of qhat PTSD is, because our population is increasing by the day. This looks like an attempt to get across what it's like to have this suckass...

I'm hoping I did this link right. Has anyone seen this documentary yet, or heard about it? What are your thoughts?

One of my favorite themes throughout this series. She's a survivor. I've thought several times that it's been really nice to discuss this series with people that "get it". I've talked to others that have no major trauma in their life's experience, and they just don't seem to get out of it what...

Interesting. The results from older trauma victims doesn't surprise me much, the those of children does. I would think they would be the most likely for permanent difficulties. I wonder what the reactions of those in their early 20's vs 30's, 40's 50's would be? It would seem that the longer...

Thanks, Loloma! I'll try to catch up!
