    News Childhood Trauma Leaves Its Mark On The Brain

    I have already had a ct scan because of my stroke. Perhaps this can be used to assist my psychiarist when S/he reaches a decision about my ptsd, or my abusive childhood.I hope so. I once was discretely accused of hoping to make money from this. It's enough make me forget about therapy. The...

    Well, I've seen the counsellor twice. She thinks that I don't have ptsd. I wrote to her saying that I think that perhaps I do, and that I would like to see a psychiatrist. So she writes to say that there is no psychiatrist at her clinic, and that she has discharged me from her service. She...

    Thanks Solara On reflection I find her comment on "blowing up" interesting. It is as if I am not doing enough of it ! I can understand a woman who has suffered th horror of rape blowing up often, or a combat vet who has been shot at, or seen his comrades destroyed by bombs losing control. But...

    Hi guaint -thanks but I have already read that. It's really good. Especially this bit: "The narcissist also uses favoritism and gossip to poison her childrens' relationships. The scapegoat sees the mother as a creature of caprice and cruelty. As is typical of the privileged, the other children...

    Well, You have to list things to tick, and I am scoring very low on anxiety. She asked where I was on a scale of 0-10 for how I felt. I said 5. I feel OK I supose today. I think that is what she was getting at. But I agree, I shall stay here, and also the other forum that I have found. Going...

    I have now seen a therapist. After the second visit she directed me elsewhere. She says that it is unlikely that I have ptsd. These people are intensely anxious, and blow up most of the time. Thats not me. Once yes. Then I said how about attachment theory? I told her about what "mother" had...

    Attachment Types - Overly Independent

    You are not alone ! Nature was made an awful mistake. Fish are finished with being babies are the first moment ! But humans are stuck with their parents for at least 16 years. This might be fine is the parents were good at the job. Sadly, this is often not the case. Just read the newspaper and...

    Is A 12 Year Old Capable Of Committing Rape

    Possibly all rapists were abused as children. That's the first thing. Now consider how we learn as children. We learn by example and exploration. But mostly as children by example. Now, all animals are related. We share 95% of our DNA with chimps. We share 60% of our DNA with bacteria. This is...

    Confusion

    Sounds like two things to me. The first is derealisation. I am figuring that from your use of the word [strange]. I have had this from time to time. The first time I was at work. I couldn't figure out this tree . It looked as if it wasn't real. It was a conifer. It seemed so angular and out of...

    Is A 12 Year Old Capable Of Committing Rape

    This is the sort of person that I was referring to. I cannot blame him for what he did. I know that some will disagree with me, and thats OK too. He was 7 when his head was torn inside out.

    General I Feel Stuck And Want To Give Up

    I think you need to talk privately with DD face to face, or maybe on the phone. Let her know that your are close to breaking point, and that you are over, with her and her friends baiting and belittling you. Tell her she is welcome alone where you can talk about anything, but not in public...

    Is A 12 Year Old Capable Of Committing Rape

    So sorry you and you family had to be exposed to this. That kid is dangerous. I hold him responsible for the rape, and the threats to kill you, and your 10 year old. That kid is a rapist and has no conscious. I hope he is caught and never gets a chance to do anything like this again.

    Is A 12 Year Old Capable Of Committing Rape

    It is so difficult to see through this. Are children monsters? Do abused children become monsters after becomming adults? What if an abused child offends and then is horrified at it's affect, and never offends again? Is there any forgiveness for a child? Should we just throw him a rope ...

    Is A 12 Year Old Capable Of Committing Rape

    What I find fascinating is the fact that puberty seems to be a "green light" for this sort of behaviour, but only if there is prior experience of there own abuse. You tell us that s/he was 12 years old when s/he offended. Mary Bell was 12 when she strangled 2 little boys in the UK. Jamie Bulger...
