For years I have asked myself..."What the heck is the matter with you?"...I guess hearing that this is an actual thing with an actual diagnosis and that I am not the only one helps in making me feel not so alone.

I thought my sweating was more related to my medication intake. Now that I am no longer taking that medication I can't blame in on that anymore and I continue to wake up soaked. It happens but if I am more stressed and having a bad day this is what happens to me too. Wonderful PTSD...if I...

Thank you everyone for your responses...having a better week and trying to pull myself out of this pit of despair that I have fallen into. NOT healthy at all.

I have always thought I was not normal. I do not like to be touched..no wonder I have been married twice, not good for a marriage. I was reading about sexual anorexia...you avoid it all costs, lack intimacy. Does anyone else suffer from this? If you have or do..have you overcome it? I...

I was just on yesterday and was actually feeling jealous of everyones pics and how happy people seem.... We have to create our own positives to share..when I update my status I try to now be positive and write positives. It does make me sad though when I see other families or my family that I...

Awesome job..You can do it. One day at a time and sometimes one minute!

When I hear yelling...it shuts me down! I think it is dissasociation....but I feel it come over me and I start to blank out as to not hear the yelling. I deal with it frequently with my mother as you know....it just shuts me down and literally makes me feel sick to my stomach.

Maybe there is no answer...I just am one of those people that continues to bang my head against the wall...over and over again!

This roller coaster of PTSD..it is hard. I have had good and bad days and the past couple of months...after all my therapy...I have been SO sad. I cannot shake it. I am in therapy..still, have been on and off for about 4 years. Now I am doing EMDR, again. I keep wondering if that is keeping...

Adding another...right there with you. There is a big difference in having suicidal ideation and being suicidal..IMO. If you start planning then you should probably talk to someone. Thinking about it all the time happens to me too but having a son gives me the strength to go on even though I...

Congratulations..enjoy this time!!!

I picked pandora because I knew when I started here I was opening up a huge box...like a pandoras box. I have had a lot of traumas and have been told that I should write a book because I have lived through a lot in 38 years. At the time it just felt right and was a great fit for me.

Thank you everyone for your positive comments. I was so scared but very relieved now. Thank goodness that is over! Now I am back..my computer is fixed so I will be around more!

My computer is broke...and I need the forum support and can't get it when I need it..that sucks. It should be back soon hopefully! My son has a growth on his kidney and we have a renal cancer history in my family, my Dad died from it. Needless to say, I am worried!!!!! The ct is wed, have...

What a great reward for all of us. Keep saving everyone! I know it is going to be amazing!

If they new the real truth..and how debilitating it can be...they should be lucky to not have it...people that fake it..literally make me feel sick and angry! Why?

I am amazed that others experience this too. I noticed it more in a counselling appt...I just could not hear or concentrate on her words because the stupid song would not stop..I asked her and she said it is a form of disassociation..it is confusing and frustrating but just another coping...

I didn't get to say congrats but don't stress yourself out too much!!!!

Yes..I am missing this place but just have not had the ability or the ????? motivation, I guess. This season has gotten me a bit down and we were bombarded with snow and I am afraid to fall for fear that I will not get back up! The new changes to the forum are great but also it takes time to...

My son has become a computer addict and it is hard to get anytime with the computer lately. I missing it...he finally went to school today and now the power cord is losing function and I have to wait a couple of weeks to repurchase. Christmas was expensive! I missed the party on the 27th..I...

My next appt is not until the 29th..I am going to call tomorrow and see if she gets a cancellation if she can squeeze me in. She was up here this morning as my son asked her for a grilled cheeze and he told me grandma is ok today. ( I was sleeping so we did not see each other) With him she is...

I guess I am treating this question just like a normal question. When I taught the personal support worker program, I always used to tell my students to ask..there are no stupid questions.... I know I am not crazy but I am very insightful and I know that this singing and the song playing is...

Well...I went out!!! Had a great time. I have not had a night out or time to myself in a very long time and it was kind of my little reward to myself. I started out yesterday in such a good mood..I got to the hotel and I had the most amazing room at the Hilton, on the 18th floor overlooking the...
