I am so glad he called, I just saw this thread and I can't imagine what you must have been going through. You have every right to be upset but you have every right to be happy too.

There are a lot of products at pet shops that break down the enzyme in the cat urine. The enzyme is the part that smells so bad. They are a little costly but they work and are a lot cheaper than a new carpet. If you check on the internet there are also a few home made recipes and an...

I really hope you have gone to a doctor. Having anything that keeps you close to a bathroom for that long is something that needs medical attention. It doesn't matter if it is a virus or psychologically based, you need to see a doctor. I am so sorry your family behaved that way, it must be...

When I find myself doing this I usually just (find a place where no one can hear you) say "GO AWAY" and then maybe a little thing to acknowledge that it either happened or it was heard and understood. That usually snaps me back into now and out of the circular thinking.

I am wondering if the physiotherapist wanted to know because it could have been relevant to the treatment. A lot of times the cause of our PTSD leaves physical scars. I don't tell a lot of people except for medical people. Right now I am trying to find the reason for a lot of pain I am having...

I wonder if when we minimize what should be a "big thing" that we have to deal with on a daily basis and that most people never have to experience, we then elevate the "small things" out of proportion because it is something that everyone experiences so that we can express some of what we have...

I had always felt like this even before I could remember what had happened. I would think it couldn't have been that bad, no one ever noticed me, no one noticed I was missing, no one noticed I was in pain or sick. If no one noticed then it couldn't have been bad. No one wanted to listen so it...

It is not a silly idea. Even if you consciously accept that something is a trigger it can still impact your life. All the little cues that were there when the abuse happened are still there and if the trauma was sustained over a period of time, which it sounds like yours was, they can be even...

Eating that late at night is never a good idea. Your body is digesting food and it stays awake and you are processing all that energy. Try eating earlier when you are at home and if you have to eat something make it a really light snack, not a meal.

I used to have the same thoughts as you did, wondering for years if something happened when I was a child. I didn't act them out but while I was growing up there were times when I knew things I should never have known. There was one thing that I always remembered from when I was 5 but I...

Everything we do causes ripples in our world. If you start thinking of healing in a quantum way maybe that is what we are doing. In quantum theory you affect a particles state of being just by observing that state. Once you see it, it will become something else, be somewhere else. Quantum...
