I ... I don't think I actually know. I have a goal in mind and no realistic way to get to it. I know I need money. I think once I get into the other section of work (Dream job position) I would enjoy myself. I know I want my own place to call home, enough food to survive and to be able to...

Where to start... I managed to hold down a part time job considering my ailments (PTSD, Social Anxiety, Panic Attacks, etc.) since 2016. I was proud of myself and slowly improving until I was laid off in July 2017. Unfortunately because of the lay off & working part time my Employment...

Thank you so very much, I really needed that <3 I'll try my best.

Hi there, So life has kind of fallen apart around me. Not in one huge way but in a bunch of small ways. My Birthday and Christmas are coming up and socializing is very draining for me still. I can deal. The guy I'm seeing occasionally asked me to be his girlfriend and to see me more often...

@ByrnesT She owes it to you and herself to go and get diagnosed!!! Knowing exactly what you are both up against helps so much. Best of luck, and I can safely say I'm jealous of all your effort. Thank you for trying!

Here is my personal current experience with Hyper-vigilance: I live on a no exit road (thankfully in a very small village out of the city), my bedroom window overlooks the road. I have my seat against the wall so I can glance out the window and see how's going by. I know most of the cars on the...

Hi all! Thought I would update this as I seem to be having a bit of an issue today. I continued to date the guys and have been slowly giving him bits of information about my past. He's been nothing but wonderful. We've been intimate and I still feel iffy about every single time. We're...

HUGS. Unfortunately self harm seems to be more common than not. I personally have an issue with scratching and picking. I currently have so may open wounds on my body it's hard to hide. It started out as a nervous tick, now I cannot sleep at night without picking scabs off and scratching until I...

Hi there! I'm fairly educated in this so I'll add my 2-cents First and foremost Hemp and Marijuana are different plants, same family but different functions. Hemp is closer related to catnip, it does not produce THC or crystals on the buds/flowers it produces.(if it does extremely small...

My view from the cabin I just returned from. My family has a 100 year lease and I plan to be there often. SO BEAUTIFUL.

Hi there! Sorry you're going through a tough time. Unfortunately I am in no place to answer that, I was hoping to get an answer to this as well. I'm currently seeing someone and we've been getting on nicely, but I know he's noticed I'm not exactly cuddly. How do you introduce the idea of safe...

How does one edit a post with said infringement? I received a notice, but alas cannot change the post. I searched the FAQ but there was nothing regarding this, only clarification of the rules. Sorry, not copy right infringement, but for quoting someone's full post.

Thank you! My sister kind of set it up but it seems to be a good match, we’re a lot alike. It is very healthy so far. I am very fearful because of it, as well as because of my current state of being. I does feel good and health, but I’m still not 100% sure it’s what I want. I shouldn’t be...

Thank you for the advice, it helped. Because I knew I would be uncomfortable I arranged a double date with mutual friends. We had a chance to wander off and talk. I didn’t dive into my issues, I just kind of showed him the tiniest tip of the iceberg so to speak. He was a little distant after...

SO. Where to begin. Timeline I guess to give you an idea of what's going on, might be helpful. 1996-2012 - shitty relationships & various abuse 2012 - Met abuser & Entered into relationship 2013-2014 - Endured abuse, poverty, drug addiction & isolation End of 2014 - Escaped & Moved into...

It been stuck in my head for days!!!! s.o.s Mr. Sandman - The Chordettes

I have 2 pillows that I hug while sleeping as well as a large stuffy. He's a wolf, and his name is Humphrey. Yes, I am 27 going on 28. No I don't give a flying F*@$. It helps me sleep, and honestly anything that helps at this point is appreciated lol.

They need to be respectful and get the hell outside. Lazy buggers. Do they have a vehicle they can move to? Or a shed? Second hand smoke, regardless of its source is harmful. I hope they smarten up. Sorry they're being jerks.

I was on Mirtazapine for a year and a bit. It was prescribed to me as a sleep medication as I was only averaging 3 hours a night. Very effective as a sleep pill and worked as an anti anxiety but I would never be able to take it during the day or it would put me out. Maybe talk to your DR about...

It is medical Marijuana. I have my card. It's for my nightmares, I smoke minimal amounts before bed. Because of weight gain and other issues with the Ciprolex I was advised to taper off it. I completed that rather unscathed. I was on Mirtazipine for sleep and anti-anxiety. because it caused...

HUGS! That's horrible! This is a bit embarrassing but I honestly have a few stuffies that I sleep with on days like that. Being able to hug something close and unload all of your icky feeling is just... soothing as heck. I was in the hospital today (for dehydration) and realised that warm...

Sorry you're going through that! I'm experiencing much of the same thing right now. I've begun to treat it like dissociating, I wear a chime ball or meditation bell to keep me present and aware. The sounds helps calm me and keep me feeling... in control? I haven't found a way to "shut off" the...

It's been almost a month since this thread and it's been doing down hill quickly. I haven't been taking any medication at all for months. about 2? I have no idea now. I'm still consuming copious amounts of marijuana. It's not really helping. Paranoia is prominent. Either about leaving things on...

I pamper myself. It's really hard to do since I hate everything about me right now, but after a nice bath, finally managing not to have thoughts racing in my mind thanks to some soothing music it's hard to still feel blahh. I suggest a pick me up as well. Either a hot beverage or a comfort...

Welcome to the forum! I'm kind of new as well, but willing to chat anytime! I hope you find comfort and inspiration here as I have, take care!
