    Paranioa vs hypervigilence

    This makes sense to me. He's messed with enough that I wouldnt put anything past him. He's maipulative and covert. Like your being followed, I pick up domineering people vibe very quickly. So, if they are an arsehole, in seconds my anxiety peaks, then I cry for an hour for having to deal with...

    Paranioa vs hypervigilence

    It says on that website that: "In contrast, paranoia manifests through persistent, irrational beliefs that someone or something is actively working against you. This belief can lead to mistrust and suspicion, even in safe environments." What if in the part, someone was actively working...

    The negative emotional games people play

    Most of my adult life with my ex and his family. Big blame, shame, domineering, intimidating and bame calling types. Great advice! How are you getting on with not shrinking? Any tips?

    Guess I want to know why supporters stay. If we lose it sometimes and yell.

    Yelling

    Can you explain 'context is what matters' a bit to me Friday? I broke at being poked repeatedly and could not take anymore and yelled and was called abusive for yelling.

    Does Anyone Fantasise to protect themselve?

    I'd like to tell mine regardless. It's just motivation and belief systems standing in the way. I want her to know, that I did not remain silent.

    Everyday I break

    That's good advice - to rebuild stronger than before and not let it stop you from the end goal. I guess it's where to focus energy - what makes the structure unstable. Then that's core belief work?

    Everyday I break

    I am so sorry you went through that and that you are struggling with PTSD. I don't feel safe. Even fireworks are making me feel unsafe, but those have a sensory shock with the loud noises. I undersrand the frozen feeling, it was my go-to 'freeze' response. But before I had energy, now I...

    Everyday I break

    There is wisdom in appreciating the everday things. I guess I find it hard to find joy in anything at present. It's part of the depression I am told. I wasn't raised with lots of money or things. I appreciated the smell of the sea, the orange and pink of a sunrise, a sky full of stars, the...

    Long term psychotherapy under NHS Trust

    A year and a half specialised trauma therapy sounds great. Was it enough to get you on a better path and independent from needing therapy?

    Everyday I break

    Sorry Joe, I didn't realise what you are going through yourself. I was worried I would be homeless, and its still a worry of mine. I know homeless in my area and people who were, then found housing. Many of them broke down in tears when I talked to them but they also always sounded wiser and...

    Everyday I break

    Thank you Joe, I do feel alone. I really want to talk about it with people who understand somewhat. I was gaslighted for 15 years. I was originally diagnosed PTSD but my ex husband told me I 'self diagnosed and instead had delusional disorders. My PTSD diagnosis was dismissed and he...

    Everyday I break

    Everyday I break down in tears. I can't function as I would like during the day. It was recommended I join an online support group, but this doesn't feel right for me. I am struggling to express myself and I can't talk about what I have been through online. Save for it being severe psychological...

    Long term psychotherapy under NHS Trust

    There is a NHS waiting list in my area that is 2 years long. I don't know about how long they will offer therapy for, but just getting access seems to be an issue for the nhs. Private therapy is different story.

    Does Anyone Fantasise to protect themselve?

    When I was scared, I would dream up different solutions to solve or survive the situation. I think that is a little bit of optimism in a negative situation and perhaps resilience. It just made me feel safer in the moment. I enjoyed story writing in my own head growing up, as the stories were my...

    Sufferer Domestic violence survivor

    I agree about ethics about the well being of humanity and moving towards what is good for the good sake of humanity. Those involved ‘argue’ what they ‘consider correct’, so why no consensus? I want to see peace and humanity being well, progressing with humanity in mind, just as you do. I am...

    I like talking to you about intellectual things. I hope you do too. Ethics can be claimed on any side of a war and arguments for each sided claims ethics or entitlement to land and resources. Both sides state they are treated unfairly or unethically. Thus, the war in those countries continues...

    Sufferer Domestic violence survivor

    We don’t have gender equality. Not in any developed world. A lack of ethics doesn't always result in world wars. It results in a society that is self serving and blindly protecting the institutions. Wars begin by the abuse of an institution or individual funded by the institution that...

    Sufferer Domestic violence survivor

    No one cares about being ethical. They care about protecting the intuitions. Schools protect the institution. They teach about abuse in what they all a ‘child friendly’ way, but they have a duty to protect all children, including those whose behaviours need correcting. So they close their doors...
