But for a couple of stocks, I bought and then sold at a loss. For others, I bought and then sold for profit taking. And thus a gain. So looking at my current state won't tell where I started... Bear

Ok, I've bought. I've sold. But I cannot tell where I started. How many points did I have to start with? Bear

That rocks! After the last week or two... Bear

I hope that means that he is going to support what ever it takes for you to get better. What ever, we are here to support you! Bear

That makes me so sad. Hope you have better days! Bear

FJ, This is a great start. I think that reading people's diaries might be a good place to start. Just remember there are some very bad stories here. Some of them are going to trigger you. Go easy and be prepared to step away from stories that are too much for you... No shame in that! We...

Hi TMac, Sometimes the best support is laying back and letting her escape contact. Perhaps you are already doing that. I'd suggest reading some supporter journals. Find someone, whose situation relates to yours but who appears to be succeeding. Then ask questions. We are generally an...

Hi, Ease into the forum and learn what we have to offer. I'm sure something will speak to you! Bear

Hi Gemstone, Glad you are here. Bear

Glad you are here! Sometimes hearing (reading) what is happening to others is what you need first. Maybe it will do you good... Bear

Hi CBlake, We can't diagnose you. You really need to seek professional diagnosis. If you do have PTSD, they can help you! Bear

You are making a great start. Glad you are here... Bear

Froggie, We can't know what will happen. I know I still hope for the best. Strike that! Make that BELIEVE in the best. No matter what happens, we will be here for you. So will your family. Just remember, you've always been here for us and for them. We owe it to you! So you should not...

I guess I'd be tempted to add that a boundary is not complete without a consequence. "Mom, if you don't stop yelling I must hang up / leave / not come here any more." But that might be over the top to. I'm no expert! Bear

I especially like this one! It's an excellent boundary... Another excellent boundary! This is really good, too. Of course, Your boundaries have to work for you, and whether I like them or not is largely irrelevant... Bear

As someone (who is by the way excessively smart but won't admit it) once said to me, there is more to this than meets the eye. I hope that you are going back into counseling. To answer one of your questions. Many sufferers do not remember their initial and probably most traumatic events...

Hi YA, The feeling that I get is that you need someone to talk to. I'd suggest finding several supporters on here with similar circumstances to yours and talking to them. Glad you are here! Bear

I vote with PL! On the other hand, I don't think I get a vote in this... Bear

Hopefully, it's still too early to tell. Keep holding him to a high standard. But also keep encouraging him. Reward only good behavior. And take care of your self! Bear

Darned! You've got plenty of whatever, without this. ((((Froggie))))! Bear

It is very critical that he be in therapy. If he is not, it is very wrong for both of you. It's going to be very hard for him. But you can't do it for him. As Ayesha said, read up in the forums and ask questions of other supporters with similar problems. There are many a lot like you. Bear

Super HAPPY with your news! Bear

I'd catch a ride, but I think that bears are too big to ride on birds. I'm informed that bear hugs are so much better when delivered in person. ((((((((((Big Bear Hugs for NH))))))))) Bear

You are the rock (as in bedrock), NH! Bear

Right now, I'd settle for a little bobcat... Bear
