Understand AI use at MyPTSD: all AI use is explained in our AI help page. AI use is by choice here. It exists if you want it, but does nothing unless you choose to use it.
I don't have a lot to add, most people explained way better than I could at this moment. I just want you to know that I feel the same way. Blocked from talking about my trauma, don't really remember, I thought it was once but was told it was more often. I too have blocked memories and things...
Thank you for checking on me! 🥰 I am trying. We are waiting for a call back from the director and my nerves are off the charts. It's crazy what our brains can do to us.
Great suggestion! Hubby plans on calling the office on Monday so I'll add that to the list.
My appointment was Monday, he called Tuesday and I wrote him that night after he'd spoken with my husband and reiterated again that he didn't work for free, which neither of us understand why he thinks...
I'm offended that he continued to say he wouldn't work for free when my husband talked to him. My husband even pointed out that we paid cash in the begining, he raised his prices and we continued to pay cash. We got an exception and got insurance to take it, apparently for a limited time...
I'm sorry I don't know how to divide things up. Mostly that is correct.
I'm don't think he's less and less available, I think he found the billing error when he was looking into giving me weekly appoitments like I asked for. But yes, he keeps changing everything and is less engaged during our...
I was not aware that I was becoming increasingly insecure with my therapist until things really blew up. I've been stuck in this place where I feel everything I do and say is wrong. Any little criticism sends me spiraling and suicidal. Before I started therapy I had a decent relationship with...
I love the Orville. Just finished most of the Star Trek stuff on Paramount +, started the cartoon Lower Decks today. I haven't heard of Somebody Feed Phil. Season 5 of The Crown is out tomorrow so I'll be starting that.
I have enjoyed Schitt's Creek and The Windsors on Netflix. Laughed a whole lot. I think I've watched both series about 3 times now. Lately, watching the old Beverly Hillbillies series has been fun too.
Welcome. My therapist was pushing hard for me to find other support so I came here. I can see with just a few posts that it will be helpful. You did great finishing that cake! As someone recently said to me, be gentle with yourself.
Thank you and thank you for sharing. My therapist tells me at every session to get more support and the thought was too much. But one little criticism sent me spiraling and I pushed through to post in desperation. Funny how a small innocuous post to introduce myself helped in some way.
Thank you! I do have a friend online and I'm very thankful for her. She's been with me through a lot of the rough stuff and I almost can't believe she's still with me.
Hi, I'm sort of new. I posted awhile back about trying to get a certain therapist and the frustrations, nothing deep or personal. My therapist says I need more support, I only see him every other week because we can barely afford that. I have so much social anxiety I had to ground myself...
Thank you @JGirl for this share.
Thank you @Sideways for Diffusion. I started reading about it and it's very helpful. The site had a helpful saying on it. "You can't stop the waves but you can learn to surf" Jon Kabat-Zinn.
Thank you for all of your replies. Fibromyalgia has had me in it's grip so I've been unable to do much.
@joeylittle - Thank you! I'll look into them today.
@Sideways - My prescriber refused, said there had been too many problems when he referred in the past so he no longer did that.
I have...
I am grateful for my husband of 27 years, my best friend, my biggest supporter, researcher of all my issues so he can understand and help me, my advocate at all my appointments and the only example of unconditional love I've ever seen or felt.
Thank you for responding. Is it weird I'm surprised? I live in the USA. The last therapist was "excited" to work with me because I'm a very complicated person with deep issues. So I suppose I felt like she was more fascinated than wanting to help me. Three visits and I realized our...
