Your job in therapy is not to please your therapist, in fact, it's probably a good thing that you make him angry, because then he ends up questioning his own profession and have better sessions with you. But if then again you have to ask yourself, why is it so important to please your...

I have to tell you I have the same effects as Jadebear here, and my S/O wants me to smoke it, because it makes me less, jumpy, makes me sleep better, in less physical pain, because I've had migraines and a spine disorder since I was a teenager. And it makes me have less flashbacks, less anxiety...

I agree. There is no excuse, for abuse in a relationship, even if a person is suffering with PTSD combat or non combat related. There is no excuse for abuse, but that is the disease, people whom have ptsd can be emotionally abusive sometimes as well as turning to alcohol and drugs. At one...

There is no need to feel ashamed, and whatever happened in your life, there's nothing you could have done to prevent what had happened. There is nothing wrong with you, other than you have had a lot happen in your life with no fault of your own. And it's getting harder and harder to deal with...

Ok so, I have, PTSD and DID, which is dissociative identity disorder for those of you who need to be informed. Now, I've been working with my therapist for quite a while and integration has come up sometimes. I know it has not been our immediate goal, but to do EMDR, I have to get everyone in...

Oh my god, that sounds horrible what you have been through. I think you probably should have put a trigger notice on the subject line. I do that just in case there are sensitive audiences. First of all, I would get yourself a second opinion, because it sounds like you got yourself a case of...

I have to tell you I what I hate about ptsd, is your doing something fun and normal you can't totally relax. I always have to be on guard. My body can never be totally relaxed and even when I am trying to relax, my muscles tighten up to tell me "you better get ready to run" I have tried a lot...

Thank you. I will leave because now I know what to look for. I just can't believe someone can actually be a person and love themselves like that as this person did. It just astonishes me and now I know why there why there is so much evil in this world, when there are people like her...

As a sufferer I can relate to your military guy. I do not have combat ptsd, but I do have CPTSD and I do experience the same symptoms of pulling apart from my guy telling him he deserves better. It really a fact that love is such a strong feeling with me, and it is also a confusing feeling...

Just letting people know that this may trigger some people, but I feel that I had to express this in employment. I've had a lot of trouble in the past with my employment, I mean I've worked very hard in the past all the way up until the trauma had happened. But it seems like work and certain...

This is such a welcome party here. Thanks for all the hellos.

Yeah that is what I get when I am on here. I guess it is none of their business. I mean there are those few friends that still have been there through it all. But I am kind of glad that some of my friends do not know my back story. And I'm even more glad that my extended family members don't...

Not that I am advertising here, but I have been trying to do something with my life as an artist. So I am selling my art online. Or at least going to try. I mean there is no risk. It's on a site that is theft proof. But I do mostly digital art, and paintings. I have done in the past...

I deserve to be kind to myself and to be treated with kindness and dignity by other people, because I believe I am a nice and beautiful person inside.

Yeah I was looking at that, I need to make some friends who I can have empathy with. I guess all my other friends don't even know that I even have PTSD. And they don't want to understand it, which is fine, I guess you can't expect everyone to. But I need a few people that understand what I am...

Yeah and I just got a response only minutes ago. And I like the way this website is setup. The huge print is nice, because I am so farsighted I can't see anything in front of my face.

Everyone dissociates, whether you are driving in a car, the dissociation happens when you lose yourself in a period of time, or you are not yourself. Or you end up in some place from where you started and you have no idea how you got there. The extreme forms of dissociation, are when you have...

Yes nice to meet you too. The trouble is, I've been on LJ, on the multiplicity forum and that is all good and fine, but I just don't get really good feedback sometimes. It's really nice to meet you Gizmo.

Hi my name is Eve. I have friends, but they really don't know the extent of what I have been through. I know they are non judgmental at least some of them are. At times I feel pretty left out because, when I dissociate it's like hiding a bad fart in the room. No one wants to talk about it or...

Hi all, I hope I can express that I am glad we have a place like this out here on the vast space of web. And further more I would like to take the time by introducing myself. I am a sufferer of PTSD, DID, and MDD. I try not to stress over the DID too much, because I actually kind of grown...
