    How to feel safe without a saftey net?

    I have no support right now, and can't even put into words what I am feeling, just that its like reaching out and not being able to grab on to anything. I feel a desperate need for a sense of security. Something familiar something reliable. Something external to count on. I am also...

    Beyond the honeymoon phase... can you share experiences of what it is like to fall into honeymoon and then back out again??

    Dreamt about my ex who raped me again

    Brace your self, going to rip the band aid off here. You will probably have random dreams like this the rest of your life even after the trauma has been processed. Nightmares are one thing, but this doesn't sound like a nightmare even though your reaction on waking was that it was an...

    Ok, I have to leave...

    Not knowing your story I read this with an open mind. The jokes I thought could be a combination of her being insecure with a morbid sense of humor along with your perception. When you combine everything though it paints a more problematic situation. I am a reformed anti-vaxxer because...

    Gaslighting by therapist?

    @grit respectfully, it IS new as I have never experienced a concussion before nor Benz withdrawals, let alone have the be co occuring. Hence the only reason I doubted myself. Dissociated during some traumas? Yes, went mental? No, I couldn't afford to. I have always been super efficient in...

    Gaslighting by therapist?

    Well now that I have received a small amount of medical help and my symptoms are more or less physical with brain fog, I am more convinced than ever. I have to sort out speculation versus collaboration of my version of events but at least 2 medical professionals have reassured me it is not...

    Nature Remedies For Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Overthinking And Insomnia

    Be careful with temzapam, it just f*cked my world over, causing severe cognitive decline. The withdrawals are a bitch on steroids. Keeping it tame, but I could express myself hatred for this drug far more colorfully. I prefer natural, but not having much luck with managing insomnia and...
