A responsible adult would say without a doubt tell her NOW! Especially if you are feeling so very bad right now and it appears that you are perhaps seeking confirmation that you should tell her and that every thing will be ok if you do( I sincerely hope it will be for you) If you continue to...

Send you positive and kind thoughts

Three weeks! ,that's a long time to sit with this anxiety. It sounds to me like ,other than miss appointments ( and its understandable with your anxiety so try to forgive yourself for that and just be aware that you'll try not to do it again ) you haven't done that is worth feeling anxiety...

No idea how to totally do it but for me a step in the right direction was meditation a guided one I love is in you tube ( but its long so maybe not if you haven't started meditation or can't sit still and think yet " unlock your life , freedom from negative and toxic people " . sorry I've...

Anxiety is horrible and a tricky little thing can look like so many other things its awful and exhausting in my experience I hope you are OK !

I don't know what to say here expect this for me it helps me to remember this Doctors and psycs are just people too With the ability to be influenced by others With bills and employees to pay And bias's of their own There opinion isn't always right although hopefully its better informed due...

Healthy sense of entitlement thank you for the term , I needed a way to express that yep I have a friend in her late 60s who has this I am watching and learning from but given my situation and even the huge age gap ,I feel a bit jealous of her ,...because sh!s lovely and people go out of the...

Yes its easy to get caught up in " this stuff" enjoy your walk. I think if we both trusted ourselves and were more assertive in doing so others wouldn't challenge our gut instinct but that's easier said than done One of the strongest things that stuck out to me in the last few years of this...

You sound like a lovely supportive partner can I suggest, if it wasn't said somewhere i didn't read , that in avoiding the topic the second time you brought it up it may have been because he was figuratively " beating himself up " about it and didn't feel he could cope with this from you too (...

I hope I wasn't to overbearing in my response oh and yes ditto if we were house fittings I would have been the mat but now I can go to the other extreme which is even more uncomfortable for me Yes I apologise for the overly long and rambling reply I forget people here are much better...

Im sure very few but it can happen

So sorry I think I posted half messages before I was on my tablet and its too boring and long to explain...anyway I apologize. I have to say again that this was only my impression of dbt I am just a person who explored and researched therapy for myself and I'm certainly NO authority on any of...

Lol I'm posting what I don't want to post and I forgot to post that last night I opened my phone to correct another post

Rain I am not familiar with forums but bless you too it 1230 pm and I will sleep tonight x I hope you two do too x

Oh thank goodness it wasn't received badly I thought i was going to get yelled at and I may still do but the fact I mentioned this to you with your previous experience I am so happy I did , in no way do you sound belligerent to me at all! I app I have had belligerent? No way! You sound ...not...

Me too

Really bless you Bella x

I have to post this for two reasons even if I shouldn't still be online 1 I did CBT at a place that also ran DBT and had considered doing DBT after CBT because it seems to have some important life skills that help people to function better in life and I had both the time and private health to...

Oh T = therapist I wanted to ask who your t was I hope your mum is trying and I know the spectrum of this behavior is just that a spectrum I don't believe people can't change, they can and do, but the more a behavior works for someone and they are rewarded for it and if they don't get caught...

So proceed if you do with tact and caution and only in a very stable state or just don't go there.

But I will say if you explore this in your mum it could cost you a lot of emotional pain and physical exhaustion and most of your shared or family friends and family ( after all you self harm and I personally was abusing prescribed medication, I was a sweet Kindy teacher and doing post grad...

No its hard to explain but I think I get it, at least I think I do . Especially the extended family thing because NPD and malicious BPD are a skill acquired in childhood learnt from parents behavior (I think as that's my experience) as is the other extreme of total sweetness and light and...

I just popped a msg for you below hon big hugs because you deserve them so much

I say it shouldn't be guilt inducing because seven years ago the guilt I'd have felt would have been overwhelming and yes its still there now as I talk about my mum the fact is if she haven't been given the chance and a really serious issue hadn't retramatised me, had she not told me it wasn't...

I did sleep sweetie thank you and I a horrified by my awful ill written posts from last night. Oh I'm so very sorry about your self harm struggles I had no idea and I very much hope it wasn't triggering me thinking of your mother this way. I really want to say as you work through your issues...
