Thanks for the responses! I think I was having some doubts as you often see people on here saying how they have had the same therapist for 5 or 10 years etc, so it set me thinking! @Hashi the move is due to the job, and I'm looking at moving up north (Scotland) to get some mountain and snow...

I don't have any advise to offer, but I can offer commiserations! That sounds like not a very pleasant thing to go through, I'm glad you snapped yourself out of it when you realised it was May! Gentle and warm hugs! :hug:

I start a new job in the beginning of June, on an 18month fixed contract. Before the job came up I was just starting to explore the idea of getting some therapy with a trauma T. I'm now in a conundrum as I feel like mentally I'm ready to reapproach therapy, but is it worth it when I know I will...

Oh wow that's quite cool!

I think my order is pretty much the same for giving and receiving, although I think I'm better at giving gifts, but that's because they can be something which is obviously nice... Quality time Acts of service Giving/receiving gifts Physical touch Words of affirmation And again very similar to...

Where are you going in June?

I can't think of anything funny I've done, but I do like this idea! (If only I had kids!) http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2507305/Dinovembers-toy-dinosaurs-come-life-creative-parents-spark-web-craze.html

I struggled with the questions relating to how other people respond when told... It assumes my family and work colleagues know when they don't.

That's not something I had considered but kind of makes sense... I already do a lot of rock climbing and kayaking and stuff so apparently I like danger! Thanks for the replies. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks it's really strange! I've just moved house and have a job interview on Friday...

Recently for no reason that I can work out I've really really wanted a cigarette- I've never smoked before, my dad used to when I was growing up but stopped when I was 11ish. So it's not as if I'm craving something that I've given up or anything! It's just quite frustrating! Does anyone else...

I've always been a night person too! It's nice to find people that understand :D

I think I'm on the verge of having a childhood memory unlocked, for want of a better phrase...I started thinking about my home town hospital yesterday, and it made me react in a very strange way, as if I was on the verge of a panic attack but without actually having one, then I think I...

I went on a bike as a passenger for the first time Friday night, now I'm looking into getting one! If your anything like me it's more than just going fast on something without a huge amount of protection, it's giving up so much control to the person driving as well! Yay for both of us! ;) I...

My day was ok till the end part - I went to a prayer meeting, it's a group of people I enjoy hanging out with and it's a meeting which isn't filled with 'shopping lists' for God. We were talking about trees being planted by streams of living water, and the more we talked and prayed about water...

Thanks! There's a couple of people that have said in the past that they have spare rooms etc if I ever needed it, but I feel like such a failure asking them!

So I now have just less than 2 weeks to find somewhere else to live and move out. Yay. I went for a ride last night and ended up falling off my bike, and now my knee hurts slightly more than it should, which sucks. But it has stopped hurting when I don't put any weight on it, which is one small...

Thanks, I felt better after sleeping, but was then told I have 2 weeks to find somewhere else to live. So surprisingly now not feeling quite so great but for different reasons! I like the Buddhist techniques, it feels silly but I think it might help in the future!

I think I've stopped feeling :/ My life came crashing down around me yesterday, which has triggered it

Hey! Welcome to the forum :) Due to so many people from across the globe being on the site there's always someone to chat to, even if it's 2 am where you are! :D

Welcome to the forum :) I'm just echoing what viosinger said... If it's lingering so much and you struggle to talk about it, then it's important to you, it doesn't matter what other people think!

Hey Bluelicorice Welcome to the forum! There's so many people on here it's great for support, as well as just a chat about nothing related to PTSD which can be equally helpful!

Wasn't sure where the best place to post this is, as it's kinda anxiety and kinda flashback! Yesterday while eating lunch in a pub someone walked past and something about them instantly reminded me of the guy who raped me. And now I can't get his face out of my head, it's as if it's just...

Feeling like I life could really do with a reset button.

Today has really sucked. It's my friends birthday meal in town and I haven't got any money so can't go. Turns out my rent hasn't gone out, and I don't have a way of earning money as my work money is meant to go straight on my rent, and my spare money is paying back uni for some trips I went on...
