    Epiphany

    When someone starts to change or "grow" the people around them, may or may not grow with them! The ones who grow with us continue to believe in us and the ones who don't grow with us, stop believing in us and we move on from them! That is a natural course of life!!! When moving out of one...

    Maybe as you are changing, you are getting stronger! And maybe the other does see the changes, but are unsure of themselves because of your up and coming strength?

    Could I Have Been Molested As A Child?

    When I was 16, I was sexually abused by a dirty, disgusting old man (no relation, same sex). Fortunately for me I managed to get out of it unscathed emotionally other than still to this day, 34 years later, I have this feeling of disgust in myself for allowing it to happen when I think about it...

    My Sister Masturbates In Our Shared Bed

    I believe that Elsa may be in an environment that could cause her to have PTSD if not now, but maybe in the future. It comes across to me that her family are a little different and she probably could use our help... This is only my belief! It's no good throwing stones at each other to get our...

    Can I Tell You A Story About Me?

    I was brought up in an abusive dysfunctional family and when I grew up, I created an abusive dysfunctional family, unknowingly! I even became a nonconformist and still have trouble with that one! Ever since I was 14 years old (I'm 50 now), I have been seeing GP's, Councillors, Social workers...

    Could I Have Been Molested As A Child?

    You pay a psychologist to help you find these answers, it isn't their job to judge you. Talk to your psychologist

    Why Is Sex So Difficult Sometimes?

    To have a good sexual relationship takes a lot of time, understanding, trust and patience. In most relationships there is one chasing and one running... especially if they have opposing lobedo's

    Drawn To Danger

    Maybe you are! Do you have limitations to your wild side? Looking at death in the face kind of helps build up courage to deal with domestic life, I reckon :) There are too many people in the world today that are rapped in cotton wool and these people constantly tell us how stupid we are for...

    Failed At Emdr Again - Where Now?

    This is only what I believe. The trouble with EMDR is we need to be at a certain emotional level to be able handle the amount of strength needed to fulfil our desire for success in removing the over active trauma... But first we need to learn coping skills to be able to use our strength to it's...

    Sleeplessness

    Hmmmm I wonder why you can't sleep... Wake up drink coffee to get brain going, race off to school and learn a subject that causes you to think too much in the first place, drink more coffee to keep brain active, then go to work at not just one job, but two, plus more coffee. Then go home and do...

    Anxious Because I'm Getting Closer To Reporting

    I'm wondering if it is best to leave the other family members out of it for the start and perhaps include them later to strengthen your claims (Your uncle doesn't need any ammo to get out of this by playing the victim). I might be male, but I have met so many young women in my day that have...

    Question About Startling

    You have less fears than you think... Only certain things startle you, albeit the most part of life doesn't. Obviously, the thought of your husband puts you in fight or flight mode, which would make you jumpy and have your nerves on end.

    The Fight Side Of Fight Or Flight

    Authoritative figures that are stupid give me the shits and I can't help myself, but to challenge those dimwits who think they are better than I... Now days I try not to be around them as best I can and if they aren't concerning me, I don't worry about them. If they are concerning me, I try my...

    Failed At Emdr Again - Where Now?

    I think you did fantastic, just by trying again @Maggiemay. There are no rules of how long you have each session with EMDR, even if it is for 1 minute, albeit each time you try it, it does get that little bit easier as you learn what you are up against within your own fears and how to cope with...
