Reading this it just make me think of the saying "If momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy." Sounds like your mom is like that. I know how you feel when you think of the guilt of not being able to protect your sister, but the truth is...nothing you could have done would have. The abusers...
You are definately right there. My boys are all very young (8, 7, and 6 yrs) and were delayed due to both abuses. We are all in counseling at this time and getting better slowly. I have had to reevaluate my parenting styles almost daily and be three different moms at any given time. My...
I am a single mom with three boys and all of us have PTSD. My biggest concern lately is how can I help my kids with their problems and not transfer my issues onto them?
This whole time I have been avoiding my problems in favor of helping the kids. I know I can't do that anymore. So do I...
Thank you Heather! I hope I can keep up the strength. Just telling a lot of this has started a lot of tears. I just flashed on a mental pic of my poor kids cleaning me up after he beat me. Sorry...too much pain just hit me all at once. I am glad to have been able to talk to you though. No...
I reported them to the county and took my son to have it documented at the docs. I have pics on file and I am in contact with the national board of education about the school.
I was very hot when I saw the marks, that is right when I took him to the doctor and reported them to the county...
I don't know if anyone is still following this, but if you are I could really use a few hints. My kids school is the exact opposite. They trigger him at ever turn, they treat him like a outcast, and recently he came home with marks under his arms from where they had to 'restrain him'. They...
You have to tread Very lightly on this...If you don't have a diffinitive diagnosis of PTSD then you can't fully be aware of what you are dealing with. I don't have the relationship of bf/gf, but I am the mother of three young boys all diagnosed with PTSD and they are all around the age your...
I can totally relate. Doctors pretty much look at insurance and how much work they actually have to do for those high paying jobs. I hope everything came out okay with Xrays and its all gone, and don't feel bad...when I had a tumor burst( nothing compared to what pain you felt I hear KS are...
Thank you for your support. And yes I will take any hugs I can get. It has been a rough day with just the realization of everything I have been pushing back all of this time. I don't think I have quit crying for more than ten minutes at any given point today.
I know that I have got a rough...
Having just read your forum makes me realize that I have been in complete avoidance for close to a year. I have kept telling myself, "I will get better if I just focus on helping my kids." Now I know why I cry myself to sleep at night. Denial isn't such a wonderful thing after all.
Hi. My name is Amy and I am a single mom of three wonderful boys. I am here because all of my family have been diagnosed with PTSD.
I got out of an abusive relationship about 2 years ago. My husband physically, emotionally, and verbally abused me for 8 years of a nine year marriage. My...
