    Relationship New Relationship With Someone Who Is Emotionally Numb

    Having PTSD and living with someone with PTSD, is eye-opening. My partner and I recognize each others triggers, we can't lie to each other... we know what we are doing to each other when an episode occurs. You can be emotionally numb, but it doesn't mean you can't 'love' someone - we have...

    News Explosion At Boston Marathon 2013

    People make a choice to harm others, not God. To call for the death of others in the name of God is not holy or just. I will defend my life if presented in a life and death situation but, not for the sake of fanatics who see me as a devil or second-class citizen because I don't agree with...

    News Explosion At Boston Marathon 2013

    We don't need religion separating mankind. Religion is emotional terrorism when it's based on fear of repercussions not from a just God, but from the clerics who say, they speak God's words. B.S... How many people have died in the name of the "one true God?" OMG... Oh, MY GOD... a phrase that...

    I wish it was. Yet, these things happened before PTSD was involved. I have had therapists and doctors, professionals in their fields, at odds within their circles over this... Some, have had similar experiences with this invisible world. Not all doctors, but some do believe it can happen and...

    Poll Has Ptsd Increased Any Physic Abilities?

    This made me laugh! People have said that about my mom.., then my kids, but it wasn't anything other than the mirrors. Yup, I had mirrors placed in perfect locations so I could keep an eye on them. They thought I was spooky... hahaha. Nope, a little sneaky. It was four against one. I had...

    Funny thing happened while weed-whacking. The thought crossed my mind, "I hope this (weed whacker) doesn't give out. Less than five minutes it did... It is less, than a year old. It reminded me the time when I was getting on an elevator at the Sunset Marquis in L.A. during the 80's. I said...

    Three times in the last month I had a feeling to play my favorite daily 3 numbers - did I follow my gut? No. All three times, my numbers played. Oh well, should have listened to my gut - I would have been $5,000 richer!

    Spirituality And Ptsd

    Religion is a crock but I do believe in a higher power. God does not interfere because we have been given free will. Our own individual actions from using our free will is on us, not God.

    Well Taven Carlsen, reality is a fantastic fantasy with everlasting consequences. Interesting how close fantasies and reality truly are. Scientists are still baffled at how wrong they are when they get new facts. Black holes are now the possible birthing places for new galaxies. Also...
