Hi guys happy new year I hope you all had a lovely time. Just looking for a bit of advice if that's ok. I have my first appointment with the psychiatrist in a week or so and I'm not going to lie - I'm terrified. Can anybody give me an idea of what will happen at it? Will they make me go into...

Hiya I was wondering if I could ask u all for some feedback please? I'm not very good at writing feelings and emotions down but I want to write my T a thank you letter for when I leave next week. This is what I've got so far: Dear T I just wanted to say thank you very much for all your help and...

Does anybody get so agitated that they feel like they want to climb out their skin? It's a really weird feeling like u just want to scratch your insides! :eek:

So today my T dropped a bombshell! She is leaving to go to another job. She had discussed discharging me a while back but since then I've managed to tell her a lot of stuff that I was holding back. Now I know she's not my friend but I feel close to her as I've told her things I've never told...

I'm really struggling today. I'm going on holiday in a couple of days - this is a trigger for me after the attack. I promised my T that I could keep myself safe but I'm not sure I can. I phoned a helpline and they were useless - just wanted to talk about the details of the attack, not about...

So today I told my T I'd been thinking about suicide. The minute I admitted it is instantly regretted it-i didn't want to talk about the specifics. Now I'm terrified it's going to be on my medical records and she I'll tell my GP. It was hard enough admitting it never mind anybody else knowing...

So a year ago I was diagnosed with ptsd following a terrorist attack. I used to be a strong confident person but now I've turned into a pathetic, constantly scared mess. All the things I used to enjoy just don't make me happy anymore - not much does these days. It took me a long time to become...
