punky, I hear you and I understand. I tried to take my life four times with pills when I just couldn’t do it anymore. It didn’t work, and I’m glad it didn’t work. Even though life is hard and sometimes seems impossible, I don’t want to leave behind the shards of mess and pain that I had to live...

I am so very, very thankful that I found this forum, and that I found all of you on this thread. Here I am understood, and I can understand what we’re all going through. Sometimes it’s so very hard to believe for good to come out of the ashes. But what other choice do we have? Any other choice...

You’re welcome healinginprogress. I can’t always check in here like I used to, so I tend to invest the time whenever I can pop in. I actually don’t type. I do talk to text. It’s pretty quick and simple. Just a matter of cleaning up with some editing. Glad that it helped to give you perspective...

I cannot say for sure, but I can describe my own situation. I have been pretty messed up for a very long time. In college, as I was learning to be a teacher, I identified that I had ADHD, never diagnosed, but absolutely positively makes total sense. Lots and lots and lots of indications. In...

“Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.” ‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬ “They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from...

I’m so sorry that I haven’t been able to keep up with these messages. But I’m glad that they have been helpful. Someone recently liked something in this thread, so it came up in my notifications. I’m so thankful. I understand completely about not believing in God anymore. I was an atheist...

I’m so sorry for your pain and for your situation that is absolutely not tolerable. I understand. I’ve been there. My son has been there a lot for 24 years. Just yesterday he told me that two states in the US that are not far from us allow assisted suicide for mental health. I hate to see him...

Considering an ending that you would want opens the door to the possibility. Even if it doesn’t end up exactly the same way as you write it, perhaps it can go in that direction. It’s important to process our stuff, but it’s also important to balance it with embracing the possibility of a better...

I hope that you can muster whatever it takes to look into a therapist who meets your needs. They are there to help us. If that is not happening, then they are not doing their job. I’m not afraid of fire someone who is harming me, making the situation worse, or not benefiting me. I know how...

I agree with you about getting through it. I hope with all my heart that we can all get through it and not only survive but thrive. I understand that that is possible, but I haven’t quite been able to attain it yet. It is hard work. We must be gentle and take our time. We must accept where we...

I can finally look back and see some of the good things that were there while I was struggling to survive. So thankful to no longer be haunted by all of the bad.

Welcome to this safe place. I have been isolated from society for 25 years due to illness and disability. I have pretty much lived in my home for the most part caring for my adult autistic child. My primary access to people has been virtual. Covid actually opened the world to me by creating...

Sorry for the situation that you are in and have been in for a long time. I appreciate the feedback for you here, and I agree that you need to speak up for yourself and the boundaries have to be protecting you. It doesn’t appear that your boundaries are protecting you. For example, a boundary...

I see a red flag with him abruptly saying anything at the end of an appointment. You should be leaving in a positive frame of mind. Personally, I would look for someone else. I agree with all of the feedback that you received here. So very glad that you reached out. Wishing you well moving...

Welcome to the community. We all get it and we’re here to support and encourage one another. Hope you find this safe place place of healing and friendship.

Sorry for your rough day/night. Glad you reached out here. It’s always good to have someone to share with who gets it. We all do. even though you dodged a bullet, you still got triggered. Probably not as badly as you would have if you would’ve been confronted by them. I always try to see...

This looks really good, because I actually have complex PTSD even though I’m only diagnosed with PTSD. I am going to give this one to try. Thanks for sharing. Yes, we can easily get overwhelmed and then triggered. But I take my time. I don’t make any decisions quickly. That helps to alleviate...

Me too! Sounds like quite a few of us hyper focus on learning in order to cope. Congratulations everyone for your achievements in spite of everything you’ve been through. We’re quite an accomplished bunch! I was the first in my family to get a college degree. Going to college was running away...

I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through at the hands of people who took an oath to care for you. You don’t have to put up with that, and the last thing you need is more trauma on top of what you have already been through. I completely understand your experience with medical and mental health...

Welcome to the forum. I am a fellow Christian. I’m also a fellow sufferer of CPTSD. You are welcome here. This is a safe place and everyone here gets it. I hope and pray that this forum is as beneficial to you as it is to me. 🙏✝️❤️ Please understand that when your abusers tell you that you...
