Sorry that you're going through this but,Take care of yourself. You say you can't let her go, you're talking like you have a choice. I'm not trying to be insensitive, but letting her go may be just what you need. Self care is important for you now. Sounds like you are still putting yourself...

I was a very confused therapist. I went to the university of youtube, and goggle. This sight is the only reason I didn't lise my friendship forever

I am just starting to understand what is meant by support but don't try to fix. Because all of my life I and many other men were constantly told, its a man's job to provide, fix, protect. That's what we hear constantly PROVIDE, FIX,PROTECT. So when we care or love you it's in us to do that. The...

I'm sorry that you are hurting, but from my very limited experience with anxiety or personality disorders, without her receiving help things will not only not get better but will gradually get worse. I find that most supporters that stay with the abuse do so until they have reached there pain...

Thanks for your insight

Thanks for responding so nicely

Yes, back when she trusted me, I asked if she had been diagnosed with ptsd and she said no. Then a week or two later she said she had been diagnosed with cptsd and tried to explain the difference.

I have a friend, she's a wonderful person and we had an amazing bond and connection. But when we got closer she started to pull away and a death in the family put her over the top. She has cptsd And at the the time I was totally beyond ignorant about what she was going through. She never asked...

Welcome to the forum, you came to the right place

You wake up everyday and fight and enemy that is unyielding and relentless. Your enemy takes away your ability to sleep, trust and it isolates you from those that may be able to support you. You put one foot in front of the other and keep moving. You're enemy has an unimaginable success rate at...

Thanks

I have a friend that I care about very much that has isolation and avoidance issues. It hurts me especially on holidays and birthdays mine and hers have passed. We did talk briefly on hers. I thought Valentines day would be awful, because I knew I wouldn't hear from her or see her. But it wasn't...

I wrote the reply on my phone so excuse the error. But I maybe shouldn't have written the post while being upset. I love her dearly as a friend but it never went further. But she is amazing and all of a sudden gone. So I'm sorry for letting one word throw everything off I'll try to be clearer...

I guess I right my posts according to how I'm feeling erratic and all over the place. I apologize for that. It was a second incident, but I will give her space and our next Our relationship is that we are really close friends. At least we were. But this was the best person I have met in a long...

I didn't get angry at your attempt to answer the question and if that's a question that depends on her and how she feels that's fine but you did everything and said everything but answered the question. The question was how long does it normally last, if that question can not be answered ok But...

Thank you for finally attempting to address the question. I actually asked. And being called a stalker was not suppose to make me angry. No worries

You're living your life and one day you meet someone and instantly you click. Everything is better than good and then one day they're gone not physically but emotionally gone. Your world is falling apart and you're scrambling for answers. In the process you handle some things good and some not...

And you still haven't answered the questionof how long does it last. Honestly all you did was attack me. I saw a car in a parking lot and went in. The intention was to speak to her no anger no nothing. Had no idea she would react that way, of course I would give her space and leave her alone...

I did not diagnose anyone that came from her she hadn't been diagnosed yet and I went in there to say something to her didn't follow her in the store. I came here for help on two different occasions and both times felt attacked. I did nothing that I hadn't done a hundred times before her aunt...

Two different stores on two different days. I'm not sure she just said my repeatedly popping up freaks her out

I know she has panic attacks and she seems to have the symptoms of ptsd and anxiety but I haven't been told of a diagnosis. I said something to her but she wouldn't get off of the phone which for her seems strange. Her truck was parked at another store and I went in to talk everything seemed ok...

I have a question. I am friends with a ptsd sufferer or an anxiexty sufferer don't know which or both. I ran into her at a grocery store and she was on the phone the whole time. I thought strange but ok. Then I said a few words and left. I had more to say so when I saw her going into another...

And I was trying to respect her boundaries but I went to some forums and some would say minimal contact to let her know you care and are thinking about her and others would say cut contact. Guess I got confused

Yes the information was sketchy at best so I understand the first response but when you used the word stalkerish it kind of passed me off. And the song let it go. But on hindsight I should have been more thorough. And we were close but no sex. That's another thing every touch was braced. We...

she told me she was having trouble sleeping and flashbacks etc
