    Inappropriate behaviour at school- advice?

    As a former teacher in the US, any PDA by anyone is not appropriate and consequences could follow. And that simply PDA, not kissing on the lips. Since the child was not comfortable, and the kisser did not check with the child, it’s my experience that it may be grooming of a predator. I would...

    Psychologist Recommendations for online therapy

    I had a bad situation with my previous therapist, whom I worked with for 10 years. I left a bad taste in my mouth and inability to trust. I have waited for a year before seeking to replace them. And I decided to go with a different type of therapist, one who is specialized in trauma and trained...

    After Trauma Therapy Ends

    I don’t know if I will ever be able to let go of my therapist to guide me through the process of healing. I have done without a really good therapist for many many years. I finally have a good one and expect to be working through a lot of things over a long period of time. Glad that you’re...

    Narcissistic abuse & CPTSD

    Welcome and thanks for sharing. I can relate to what you shared. You are on the right track searching for truth. Condemning yourself is a symptom of what you have been through. But that doesn’t mean it’s valid. I feel exactly the same way that you do about not ever wanting to hurt anyone. I...

    I don't have a friend

    I haven’t been diagnosed with DID, but I relate to being all alone. There was a period of ever out 5 to 10 years where I was isolated, all alone, confined to my home… but I always had a friendship of one person. That person to me was Jesus. Perhaps that person for you can be your other parts...

    Depressed on my birthday

    On my last birthday, I was locked up in a facility. Nonetheless, I celebrated. Don’t let the negative things affect you more than the positive things. Focus on the positive because what you focus on you magnify if you focus on the negative it will become stronger and greater and come against you...

    “Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.” ‭‭Isaiah‬...

    Struggling with ideation at the moment... ugh...

    Absolutely I will pray. I understand about not believing in God at the moment, but it can’t hurt, right? Just don’t give up. Keep moving forward.

    Sufferer Hello - Living nightmare - looking for advice

    A little more than a year after I had a horrific experience at a facility, I am now strong enough to talk to an attorney. I have an appointment in May. It took me this long to be able to function, and that hospital only made it worse. My prime motivation is change. I don’t care so much about...

    That’s getting excited Metropolitan Nomad! But I will be hoping that that was figurative, and that no one would be harmed in your renewing experience. There’s too much of that happening these days. Let’s just stay in the bounds of safety and blow the roof off! (figuratively) 😁💥💃🤗🎉

    That is all any of us can do, one little baby step at a time until we stop tottering and actually make it the whole way across the room without falling down.
