I have not been diagnosed with CFS but feel exhausted all of the time...What symptoms do others experience? Or is it just that you feel like you are exhausted and can never get the right amount of sleep? I have a pain issue because of my back and suffer from bad insomnia so I thought it was that....
Is there any chance he will remove the ban if and when she maybe gets back into the correct state of mind...kind of sounded like she really needed some additional support....I know the suicide talk is not right but she obviously was not in the right frame of mind and obviously going through a...
I get that she was suicidal and not talking correctly, obviously not in the right frame of mind..but it was her diary to vent.....does anyone know if in fact she is alive. I read her last post and then she got banned for being so suicidal, just wondered how she got help here if she had no one...
I am very nervous, scared and excited all at the same time. I am sick of being lonely. On my profile I did lay it out on the line..I did write very positive things but I also mentioned I have a back injury, a special needs child and a dysfunctional family. He must have really liked my...
Thank you everyone for the support..Recovery has been amazing, hardly no pain at all. I am taking iboprofen and that works. My sutures fell out yesterday and I was feeling really sick, probably due to the infection in my body. I feel more energy than I have in a long time now that the...
Well I finally made it to the dentist today. I had 3 back teeth pulled with sedation but no nitrous oxide. I have a huge fear of the dentist and the suffocating feeling brought me back to my assault. I was able to stay calm, I squeezed a stress ball and I was in the chair for about 2 hours...
I have the same anxiety with my Mom but she lives in my house! UUGGHHH....I understand that feeling of not wanting to talk when they are in that frame of mind and you know nothing you say or do will be right. Just two days ago she freaked on me...BAD..called me horrific names. Then yesterday...
I take a beta blocker...atenolol and it woks great for the hyperarousal and stops my shaking. My son takes clonidine to help with his tics and it works wonders. i have never heard of it being used for PTSD but sounds interesting. I know my son can have it in the day for anxiety as well and it...
Congrats to you both...Just a quick question..If a person was assaulted once by a stranger that is not classified as sexual abuse that would be rape?? Is this for people that have had more than one experience of abuse involving any kind of sexual act? Hope that made some sense...
Well..on monday I deceided to clean the entire house as I knew I was going to be out of comission for a few days and then yesterday the headache started and by noon I could not stop vomitting. I am not sure if it was because I was so scared or because of me overdoing it monday. I had to cancel...
It is scary when our brains work this way..beleive me, I get it. I have been driving down the highway and will think I would like to run my car off the road, knowing how wrong that thinking is I do not do it but those negative thoughts are very scary.
Well it is sunday...two more days! Freaking anxiety has taken hold but I just have to keep telling myself that I can do this, I am strong! Now...I just have to beleive that. Still silent treatment from my Mom, as usual, hopefully she comes around before tues.
Still freaking out actually cried for about four hours yesterday and went to a friends house and that did help but had a fight with my mother and she told me..you are on your own for tues..with some other choice words...hopefully this blows over as she was supposed to put it on her credit card...
Thanx everyone...ya, I am still freaking out and not looking forward to trying to take care of my son while trying to recover. Getting old..FOR THE BIRDS!!!!
I did make it to the appt and I go on tues to have two roots pulled out and one tooth pulled out. They are going to give me oral sedation at the office about a half hour prior and he said he could use the nitrous too, if needed. I just said I had anxiety due to my last bad experience at the...
Well I am supposed to go today but my son woke up with a huge pain or pains in his back so I have to cancel my appt to take him to the clinic..at least that gives me one more day until I go..UUGGGHHH!
When I was younger I always had good oral hygiene habits, though I had to have a tooth pulled at 11 and that felt traumatic to me as I remember him having a hand on my forehead pushing me down as he was pulling the tooth out.
After my assault I started getting nitrous oxide and that helped. I...
How exciting..I would LOVE to take this! I am a nurse too and psych was my favorite subject..I had high 90's then. Maybe one day...right now I have to work on doing the refresher course (if I deceide to to this at all..I am looking into other options too) I am starting out slowly by taking a...
I have been waking up in a cold sweat..last night was awful and I do not remember dreaming but does this happen to anyone else or maybe I am experiencing early menopause?
