I have not been on here in a really long time, I haven't really needed to be on here. Anyway, one of the last times that I was on here I was in a very abusive relationship and I was struggling as an individual with my past. Last November, I left the guy I was with and shortly after that I...

^^ Also, you can always try to focus down to one thing at a time. That really helps me when I start having bad anxiety is focusing on one thing that is a constant. Like my breathing if need be. I can control that. I know that it may or may not help with you.

I have six big dogs. I'm still just so scared. As soon as I can I am going get a hand gun and my permit and everything, I just can't live in fear. I have had a few family members offer me places to go and live until I get on my feet.

Okay so today I wasn't having a great day but it wasn't a terrible day but now. I can't stop having multipul panic attacks. Back story I was raped four years ago, ever since then I have been a cutter and suicidal. I have various other disorders. And I have been doing pretty well. Stable...

When I was engaged, and I was going through all of my stuff. My fiancee was still there for me. He just learned how to back off a little when I needed to be left alone. When I was ready I would come to him. He told me that it was really hard to sit and watch me go through what I had to go...

Try putting a bat or something near your bed. For me during the night mares it made me feel a little safer knowing that I had something next to me to protect myself. Also, I would think if you could make a floor mat even if it is cardboard but hot glue some legos or tacs down to it, and lay it...

Oh my gosh! I will help you! That is truly horrible. But, you will get through this. This is the part where everything you have been through is going to hurt the most because you have gone through one of the first steps. To open up and ask for help. This part is probably going to be one of the...

I can understand where you are coming from with the thinking you aren't going to get better by this point in time so you are giving your self a date. One of my doctors told me that "recovering isn't waving a magic wand over your head, it's more or less like sending a rat into a complex maze...

Thank you everyone!!! You can find them all with the kids shampoo and soap! They have crayons or markers.

Earlier today I posted a Thread titled "4 days to 4 years". Basically an anniversary, that marks my trauma. I have flashbacks, that bring me right back to it. I can feel smell and hear it again. Most of the time I really have the urges to self harm. But today was completely different. I am...

When you start having anxiety try touching something that is near you and start counting back from any number, and match you breathing with it. It doesn't help sometimes. But when I can't seem to focus or I'm about to have a melt down I like to match my breathing with something that I can...

So, in 4 days it will be 4 years since I was raped. Normally I can handle the flash backs, and nightmares pretty well. But the last week or so they have sent me into really bad melt downs, and just pure anxiety. The last few nights even on my sleeping meds I have woken up covered in sweat...
