Hi all. My sleeps been getting better over the years, and I don't have as many nightmares as I used to. But I keep on dreaming that I'm back with my abuser. I find myself being back with him or letting him back in, and I keep on thinking "oh no, how did I get into this again". Everything is...

I think my worry here is that I don't have too much reservations and then my mind tells me "Hey! Wait a minute! Stop!" cause I'm scared it will repeat itself and I don't have any normal relationships or the like to compare with. I feel like diving into it because it feels so comfortable, but...

Thank you! Yeah, I know you're probably right. My mind says I should focus on myself and heal. Maybe I'm addicted to being with someone, I don't know. It's just so scary to think about the fact that you can never actually know. Really scary.

I have a really bad history with men. I make shitty choices. The problem is that I usually don't see the signs until it's way too late. I think all the long relationships I've had has been abusive to some degree. So I'm naturally quite sceptical. I'm looking for the signs. I met a guy in a study...

Thank you She Cat! I've kinda been feeling the same way about it, but I feel like a selfish person for feeling so. Helpful to hear it from someone else!

Thanks you so much for the replies, both of you! I have always loved children and want children of my own. I also love his son and wish I had more energy for him. Just to make things clear - it's not that I mind to help or to spend time with his son, not at all. It's just that I feel like he...

Don't know if I even should post this, but I'm so confused. I'm in a relationship that has been lasting for a little over a year now, and we now live together. However, this has been quite a challenge lately, and I just need your advice/opinions/to complain. I am now able to study 50% part...

I get exhausted, dizzy, nausea, muscle pains, muscle twitches, tension headaches, pain in ears, tinnitus, upset stomach, I've lost the feeling in parts of my body (some come and go, some places been numb for years), poor regulation of temperature, distorted sight. Among other things.

Thanks for your reply. It could definately be pressing on a nerve, as my muscles are so tense I tend so get a lot of nerve pains. The pain is at the top of the head, but more towards the top than the back. I have had my vitamin levels checked (test were abnormally good actually!) and have been...

Hi! I am generally struggling with physical symptoms (numbness - especially in thighs and rest of legs, nausea, constant heartburn, dizziness, the feeling of tingling and/or needles in different parts of my body, muscle twiches, general pain etc). But now I've felt an intense needle-like pain...

I've been having digestion problems for the last few years. It's been worse after I left my abusive ex about 4 months ago. I'll get stomach pains and my body has trouble digesting most things except eggs, yoghurt and other easily digestible foods. It gets a lot worse during stress and if I'm...

Got diagnosed yesterday with PTSD. Got a great new therapist!

Thank you so much for your responses! The therapist I'm going to does not have trauma training and I don't really trust her, cause she continually talks down to me, ridicules some of the stuff I tell her, claims my doctor has written things in my journal that he never did (I checked with him, it...

Thank you. I guess you are right. I'm just worried the wrong things are being focused on. But I guess she does know her job.

Hello there I've been thinking I have chronic fatigue syndrome for a while, but might actually have PTSD. I've been in a physically and mentally abusive relationship and just managed to get out about two months ago. I'm currently seeing a therapist who's gonna determine what is causing my...
