Oh, yeah... P.S. . . Please folks... if you haven't voted please reconsider, it would help me with my studies. Thank you.

Keep believing whatever message you receive is there for a reason. Though not all my experiences have revealed tragic news . . . I do believe our dreams and messages are preparing us for what is coming ahead. For me - to ease my soul as it adjusts to the next level for the sake of my spirit's...

It has been interesting therapy with my therapist who also has experienced major trauma and has a mother with cognitive abilities. This has empowered me not to question these 'abilities' that seem to warn or help me in some odd way...e.g. I needed a filter screen for the kitchen sink, but...

P.s... other people are not responsible for our happiness - unless they designate themselves as the leader of your entertainment committee... People do things that make me unhappy but it doesn't stop me from being actively 'happy.' I do things that change my mood from 'sad to gladness.'

benjumaan, the first real heartbreak we experience will never be forgotten and, why should we forget? Eventually, she will slip away from your daily thoughts and be logged into your memory. When you get into your 20's, I promise... you will remember her with kindness and know you both were too...

My heart goes out to you both (Jax22 & wife of). The last six months have been horrid since our dog was shot by a neighbor. My s.o., and I both have PTSD, which does not help the situation but it helps to understand the emotional numbness we go through. But, nevertheless...it is still painful...

Spooky is when I think about someone and they may call me or turn up.... This is the most prominent observation that can be witnessed by others... When these feelings surface and if someone is around - I tell them what I believe is going to happen; like someone contacting me or something...

I had a toe-head baby and boy, she would turn fire engine red in minutes -

That is so sad to hear, Incendiu, but I understand it. Also, you do look very pale skinned. But, in 1974 I knew I had to keep the sun in my life even though the tears fell, and people were laughing, smiling, carrying on with their normal routine of living while I was burying my husband on this...

Since I could not responded correctly to this poll - I will add this" clouds don't depress me. I just love the fact the sun forces me to smile in spite of my mood.

My trauma merely confirmed my faith.

My vote was disorder that I believe is an illness.

As a reporter I loved my job - I believed in using my position to help others in dire need of their community, but eventually - too many sad stories, corrupted cops and too many dead bodies. The stress led to more anxiety - if a reporter makes a mistake - it can affect others - having been on...

James - I just want you to heal - be happy and make it.

My God James... please don't allow this trauma to steal your life - that would be so unfair to you. Breathe - breathe - draw in the wind to your lungs. Each breath - a dose of freedom. Stand tall, deal with those assholes when you feel strong to look them in the eye - tell them what a 'piece...

Froggie! Way to go! Now just wait for it....(pat on the back) the courage you displayed is a milestone - so, bask in the sunshine of your inner strength - be confident you did the right thing for you. And, just maybe you will help others to find a way to be confident with themselves as well.

I am so glad you survived the attack, but don't let it stop you from living. Use the experience to help others - it will help you as well. take care

Relationships are difficult but PTSD relationships can be extreme - if two have PTSD well, it is interesting to say the least but having a relationship is not impossible - it takes work, tears with plenty of patience and understanding. As for TV shows, yes.... scenes bring on certain memories...

It would be easy...but, it never is the norm on my end...always a trigger.... neighbor who shot our dog called landlord, now must move and then, the other night, a major trigger, a trooper shows up flashing his light in the driveway, then aims it in the house... says he was looking for 'William...

Two days ago it was 104 in Redding, while driving along the interstate a vehicle passed me by and I got the heebie-jeebies, the chills ran through me and no one can convince me that there was not, something 'bad' about the occupant of that vehicle... and no, the AC was not on - it doesn't work.

Okay, now here is an update: Needed a screen for a leaky faucet... had a vivid dream the other night that I found a screen - well, today I did. Now this is what makes it odd... I found it in my scarf drawer while reorganizing - it was stuck between two scarves. In the past few months I've had...

Jimmy-joe, if it works without harm- you would be the perfect example... you go to work - come home then smoke - nobody's judging you - it works for you and your are your own keeper to your soul.... don't sweat it....

Great days ahead for you... woo hoo!

Christy, I would feel rage if a therapist said this to me... it was bad enough one said, "your life is monstrous." Find a someone else for sure.... you are one of many of us who have gone through bad ones....
