Why do you think I should stay away from CBT

Im sorry i have been so confusing today. I'm so confused. My daughter was molested by their bio dad not my now husband. The kids bio dad is one of the reasons I have a lot of my problems. My husband and I don't really know what to do. We want to believe but we aren't sure and if it didn't...

No her dad wasn't the bad guy but there was somebody who did do something in that form when she was younger a teenager when she was in maybe middle school or younger and it was the kind of assault. That's what my husband, her dad, was wondering if it was a flashback or something else.

I'm sorry everyone it's kind of like when I get to talking about something that's kind of upsetting and i confuse things and typing is different than talking and i wasn't sure about using people's names here which would make it easier to understand . I'll do this. Stepdaughter is 26 and we will...

Well, for a background, my kids father molested & raped them several years ago. I have been married to a wonderful man for 11 years. He had 2 children and I had 3. My ex had done things to 2 of my daughters, extensively to my oldest who is now 30. Over the weekend, my stepdaughter, (who is...

I need to find another therapist as mine is not "in network" and another psychiatrist. I tried calling my insurance and they tell me to go online and look, but they don't show any psychiatrists and I would like them to be in the same place at least. I also want the therapist to be female as I...

Wow I can't believe all these bad reactions, but I guess there bad reactions to any medication. I have been taking 50 mg. of tramadol 3 times a day, now for several years and do not have any of those side effects. I take it for pain management. I have osteoarthritis for sure and my Primary...

You ever feel like you share too much with people. I'm always honest and open. Probably get too close to people, and share my feelings easily and give TMI sometimes. Probably too open and people shy away afterwards or don't want to spend a lot of time with me. I don't know how to change it...

another question I had..the T has been wanting me to take up exercise or meditation or something to improve my oh..shoot I can't remember the word. Reduce my stress so to speak, which would lower cortisol and increase..(whatever the word is..lol) oh such fun.lol. How long does or how much does...

I don't know what's going on. My hair is falling out by the handfuls. My T and P tell me that it may be stress, but for some reason, I decided to google effexor and research if anyone else had hair loss due to effexor. And I did find several that did and some ended up with bald spots and then...

Or I just hit the "Like" button so they know I read it. :)

@Snowflakes I was wondering about that too. Therapist never called no surprise there. I thought I would try since people on here and other sites talk about calling there therapists in between sessions. Maybe ins don't cover calls who knows. I just got a 90 day script from psych for the 150 mg...

Yes my therapist diagnosed me with PTSD this year. I had only been diagnosed with MDD and anxiety before.

@Gadgie I do too! And I have had anxiety all day on top of it. I just don't know what to do. I called my therapist and waiting on a call back. I don't know if need a med change, just started a new med a few months ago and had the last up on it a month and 1/2 ago. Last I seen psychiatrist I...

Man I need to learn how to post here. Geez. I feel like a real newbie. Sorry guys.

:confused:@Ragdoll Circus boy..that was a mess up post from me. lol. Ok. thanks I like what you said. I'm going to try it. It is hard to find "any" time for myself, but I'm going to try.

Sorry, posted too soon. I am at work, so not easy to do this. I had a hard time getting out of bed this morning. Just like I used to, just not as bad, because I was able to make myself get up without extra medicine. I did end up crying and yelling on the way to work. I feel like I'm letting...

I felt scared and I want to cry. And when I try to forget them and just go about my day, like push them back, I feel anxiety.

I was in chat and someone suggested I post and ask others what this could be? I'm not sure what it is or where it belongs on here, but here goes. Today and yesterday I have been remembering a certain incident or day when my ex, my kids' father, got real angry and kicked our tv and broke the...

I'm just wondering if there is anything to help me through the holidays. I'm on effexor 150 mg. I thought I was doing pretty good. Getting closer to the holidays, I'm having some memories, I guess flashbacks, of past holidays in the past that were not good when the abuse was going on, and I...

I think I had thought I wouldn't need to get on more medication again. That I was dealing ok with life and everything. But as soon as something major happened in my life. Our dog died and my dad went into the hospital suddenly all in one weekend, I was thrown again I guess. I didn't want to...

I'm up to the 150 mg. now and I'm doing better about the sleeping part. I had to take busiprone at or something to help me go to sleep, but now the last couple nights I have been ok and sleeping through the night without any extra help. I haven't had any other side effects, except the nausea...

May I ask what are you on now?

Yes, I did and he said that if it was just a one time feeling that I was able to overcome, to wait and see if it becomes more frequent. He did up my medication though. Thanks for checking on me.

So do you think it could medication related? Every other type medicine I've been on i don't remember having those specific of thoughts. Maybe wanting to go to sleep and not wake up but never specific to hurt myself.
