[Tinyflame]

Thank you for your kindness @watundah . :hug: Well puppy out of town for the next hour or so, probably good because T-Storms here. :nailbiting:

Mmm my 5 for today:

He cannot make me feel this way anymore
I will get stronger
He cannot make me feel this way anymore
I will get stronger
He cannot make me feel this way anymore

1. I'm always nervous when I post on forums, I guess that's why I'm not a member of many forums.
2. My Black Lab is 8 years old, and she's been nervous with me since she was a puppy. I think she loves me, but she acts whiny and gets all flustered when I talk to or pet her (sometimes she pees). She sleeps under my chair or beside my bed all the time. She's so weird.
3. I'm terrified of bugs, and there has been an explosion of dragonflies, butterflies and cicadas in my neighborhood this summer...they're freaking me out.
4. I want to quit smoking.
5. I don't want to quit smoking.

hugs, sister hugs, more hugs @Missycat

why, when women are sick, they still have to function? (dishes, dinner, dishes, laundry, dishes!)
s/o did do dishes this morning, but as the day goes on, my energy is going down

@Junebug I don't think you're being whiny, I think I am. But if you really feel you are, we can be whiny together x

1. This site is awesome, I'm very happy that I found it.
2. It feels great to be able to talk about this disorder with people that will understand.
3. This list isn't gonna make it to 5! :O_o:

There a headache approaching. Why can't I think -- oh I've got a headache. Instead I'm thinking -- oh it's trauma related and maybe I have a memory coming on!

I really enjoy the window cracked and the sound of tyres eating up rainfall

Am I a total fantasist and deluded in this quest to get better

I don't like full stops at the end of my sentences

Perhaps the above is just a manifestation of my issues with completion

I don't know why my cat loves me but she does

I've gone over five things

Tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies

I better go I'm getting self conscious

The block is quiet tonight

Aw @Silver Hugs++ for you xox.

Fgured out, when a trigger won't go there's a detail missed, the real trigger is related

:)

1. Back to harping on triggers
2.it makes sense: once I thought it was the building, it was the carpet and looking down and crying. Once a car- but only because 'that' type of car was on a tv show in the background. Once I thught it was a person, but it was their clothes. Etc
3. When I realize I remember the details
4. I have always explained it away as beliefs, experiences, conditioning, my nature. It's just= trggers.
5. I couldn't fix that, eg, exposure therapy, or even acceptance, when I didn't realize the cause.

1. That's why eg something like cbt never worked on it

 

[trying2movefwd]

1. Where is that shoe?
2. I am afraid to ask
3. Will my payment be on time?
4. I couldn't even handle THAT?!
5. I am hungry

I'm thinking I must need more serotonin.

I'm thinking if I talk about the things on my mind I'll just be burdening people and I should probably just not talk about it.

I'm thinking I need to feel like I'm being taken seriously and that I'm believed since I'm not feeling it entirely. I might be getting taken seriously. I just can't seem to tell right now through the distortions.

I'm thinking about how I read that when you smell lavender your brain releases serotonin. And that's making me think I probably need to inhale an entire lavender plant.

I'm thinking that I really need a day at the beach.
