Welcome supergirl! Glad to see you finally figured out how to get your posts to work! I second what others have said. It isn't how severe the PTSD is, but how it affects, you, and how you work through it. This place has been great for me, and lots of others, and I am sure you'll get...

Oh, he is Awesome! :) Well, I am in canada as well, and would like to be on the list before he goes to The States. I am even going to be in Dubai, and Jordan from April, or May, until July sometime...so if I get him beforehand, I could get pics of him at petra and the Dead Sea, and then...

I don't know what it says about me that this song makes me happier than should be possible...but yeah. This is like the most passive way in the world to vent. We'll do away with your kind Countdown to exterminate the human race 4, 3, 2, 1 Let chaos entwine On defenceless soil Remove...

Wait, someone actually sent a real stuffed bear to someone else, and he's been passing on to site members? Or is this just a game? If it's a real bear actually being mailed around, That's great! I know he's been to Canada, but has he been to the capital? You could send him to me, I'm in...

Congrats Pandora

I read all of that. All I can think to say is "Wow. You've been through so much, and it sounds like you've come so far in your life. I read every one of your posts, and am always left feeling inspired, and hopeful for my own life". I'm glad that you're okay with the man you are, because he...

Welcome Magnuss, I hope you find the answers you're looking for here. It sounds to me like regardless of whether or not you have PTSD, you do need to try to get some support for what has been going on with you. Your symptoms do sound like some of the PTSD symptoms, but this doesn't mean you...

Hi LostGirl, Welome to the forum. I think you'll find this a helpful and supportive place to be. Good luck with your return to work. It sounds like you are doing the right things to help yourself. That is a big thing. You are not pathetic for having to take Clonazepam in order to be able...

Aww, Fin I do not think you need to worry that anyone would take offense, or would even have made a connection. It is totally obvious that even if you had known about the fires that there was no ill intent or connection there. It really does show what a sensitive and caring lady you are, that...

Congratulations to you both. I wish you the very best.

Thanks Junebug, I had not heard of the H.A.L.T Principal, but it sounds like I should be using it every single time. I suffer from hypoglycemia frequently, and this greatly affects my moods, but is somehow still the last thing I ever think of. You hit the nail on the head with "anticipatory...

I thought you might appreciate it, Dave. I'm glad you checked it out.

That was great, I'll be using it myself. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.

Boy do I wish I knew the answer to that one. For me, I can't stop an emotional outburst, but sometimes I can ease it by doing something to pick myself up. I listen to music that moves me, or spend some time alone in a nice calming bubblebath, with candles and soft music. It depends on what...

I'm glad I could be of help. Thanks for the warm comments.

I almost want to make a poll to see how many people were singing one or the other in their heads... I was. LOL! What a great post.

I'm feeling very ill today. I forgot my meds for my stomach at my mom's last weekend, and have been without them all week, now I am back to not being able to eat...nothing. Even water isn't staying down. Emotionally, I am numb, and have been for the last week, hence the lack of posting about...

I'm sorry to hear that she didn't take the confrontation thing well, but I understand it as well. However, it was good for her to get things out..even if it was hard at the time, and I believe as time goes on, she'll feel even better about it. I know how I get when I am feeling insecure, and...

Hi again, I'm glad you found my post helpful. I hope for your sake that things get back to normal as soon as possible. But by normal, I hope you only mean that you and your wife will be back together, and will be working together on this. It isn't likely that things will ever be the way...

If you think it would be good for her, feel free to tell her anything I've said. I am so sorry to hear that she is so unwell, and that it is advanced. I really have come to feel for her, through reading her posts, and the posts of Her family on here. It was always a joy to read her posts...

I'll be thinking of him too. And, don't worry, it isn't silly to worry about a pet, and care enough about them to share with us here, if something is noteworthy. I hope he makes a speedy recovery. Let us know.

Fin, That cracked me right up...I don't know how she sang along without laughing.. I have always disliked the song...but this guy's interpretation of it was great. I laughed through the whole thing. Thanks for sharing. Update: So, I just discovered that Natalie covered this song, and that...

Tardis, Please feel free to share this with your girl. I'm so glad I posted. I was actually worried that I was too candid, and shared too much of myself. I did it in hopes that it would help you, and if I can help her at the same time, I'd be honoured. I have a silly question (I'm rather...

Thanks for the Eddie Izzard vid...that was too funny! He's definitely got cats figured out.

I've been in her shoes...here's my experience. Well, I have been exactly where she is. I was diagnosed with cervical cancer in Oct 2007. I had much the same reaction with my bf, I told him if he wanted to leave that he could, and I would understand. When it became clear he didn't want to leave...
