    DID Neuropsychiatrist and did

    Well, hello everyone, just thought I needed to come and post. I'm quite emotional and low. Had appointment today and having left the office but whilst still in the hospital collapsed and woke up to signs saying Majors and Resus. Not good. Cannot remember anything of the appointment apart from...

    Can Flashbacks And/or Nightmares Reveal Repressed Memories?

    Well, I don't know but really wish I knew the answer. I'm currently experiencing new memories which tend to start from waking up screaming knowing nothing to nightmares a few nights later for a couple of nights over random things to things surfacing in my head when I am awake several days...

    DID Neuropsychiatrist and did

    @anthony and @Ed Norton thanks for all your information. I have been having EEG's for 25 years and never had a normal one yet and the last MRI showed some small lesions in the brain so you never know he may be able to use past tests, that would be good. I will just have to see how it goes, a bit...

    DID Neuropsychiatrist and did

    I'm just so sick of the neurology-psychiatry-neurology-psychiatry roundabout. It's just too stressful with no sign of getting any better.

    DID Neuropsychiatrist and did

    Ok. You did well. I have lots of seizures too which I think complicates things a hell of a lot.

    DID Neuropsychiatrist and did

    Oh god, lots of different tests does not sound good to me, I do not think I will be able to manage that. Nevermind, it was worth a thought I guess. The referral has already gone as well. How am I ever going to get better if I can't remember what is happening in therapy sessions? It has been...

    DID Neuropsychiatrist and did

    Hello, can a Neuropsychiatrist diagnose DID? How would they go about this? Just wondering what to expect or whether it is actually worth going? Any help/advice would be gratefully received.

    Taking A List To Therapy

    @TimeToHeal I too started to want to amend/change the words in mine to make it sound OK and acceptable but I made sure I didn't because I wanted it to be the truth. @Justmehere I did it and talked about everything, I am happy but also in a semi-crisis as it has unlocked so much more stuff, so...

    Taking A List To Therapy

    I want to take it and maybe give it to her but what if she thinks it is too bad and doesn't want to see me anymore???? or even worse tells me to leave there and then?? I don't think I would be able to cope with that happening.

    Taking A List To Therapy

    I'm scared. I have a couple of paragraphs but more came out than I thought, I think it's embarrassing and too shameful. I don't know if I have the confidence to do it, I want to, but all I do is read it over and over whilst getting more petrified.

    Sharing Trauma Journals With Your Therapist

    I just wish I could bottle all your confidence, so are all so great, I just wish I was like that and able to do the same. It is so gutting when you want to do something, know it is for the best and can only benefit you but you still cannot do it...grrr.

    Taking A List To Therapy

    You are right about judgemental thoughts but they always stay there-probably due to the number of people who said them to me. Thanks for the positive vibes, I appreciate it sometimes it is hard to see any positive things at all. I will try to be brave and take "the list"-the word dreaded came to...

    Taking A List To Therapy

    I was thinking of that, I should have done it sooner.

    Taking A List To Therapy

    I just cannot remember what is talked about from one week to the next-everything disappears! It's gutting when you try so hard week after week...any advice/ thoughts?

    Taking A List To Therapy

    So, would I look like a fool to take a list to therapy with things I want to talk about, especially grounding etc? I have been seeing my T for about 2 years but we haven't discussed this where is was a major thing with my previous T. I'm confused. Also, my previous T used to stop me if she...

    Not Talking

    Mine too. I wish I could bottle up everyone's courage on here and take it with me. At least I have stuck with it and will continue to stick with it for as long as it takes although I frequently just don't show up which is very bad of me so maybe I should have consistently turning up as a goal...

    Not Talking

    I am so glad to read this thread and that it's not just me who can't actually talk sometimes (ok a lot). I don't do it on purpose it's just that everything seems to disappear when I'm in that room, either that or everything is so there that I just cry and cannot say much anyway. It is like a...

    Trust With Your Therapist - Or Not?

    I've had a bit of a setback, I thought I trusted my T and have no reason not to but last night I had a dream of her being really nasty to me and telling me that everything I have told her is lies, that I haven't given enough detail for it to ring true. It was just so nasty, the facial...

    Getting Therapy On Nhs

    I really wouldn't bother, it does more harm than good. 1st person I was sent to- can't help you it would be too dangerous (fair enough) A 18 month wait to see the 2nd person who was fantastic but then after numerous months went on the sick for 9 months and then called me to say she was back :)...
