"or pee."

And now I know I've found my place. I thought it was just me! :O

Copied and keeping it in my purse!

Sometimes I am on a sort of rolling series of DID people and kids. I can't identify the triggers. It is going by so fast. I quess this is good since I don't really have much time to get stuck in a flashback.

Pardon me but what is a "tena lady"?

Pardon me but what is a "tena lady"?

A brand of protection for baldder weakness.

Apparently what i have learnt is that grounding can be done during a flashback or nightmare where you touch all over your body to make yourself realize that it is not happening again. It works wonders for me, when i have mild flashbaks and nightmares1

Grounding is the one and only thing that helps me. It has to be physical for me, just telling myself it's not real is never enough. I usually try to find something near me and describe it. Like the grain in the wood of the chair, or the color of my bedsheet and what else in the room matches that color. Anything that can localize me in this place and time and not another

Time to review the basics.

Frozen and shivering a LOT this week...

I love this thread, I carry some of them with me. It does help.

Grounding, what's that? grinding makes hamburger +flour +refines sugar, grinding makes dry pigments usable, grinding is something we do to even out our teeth(Tee-hee) in our sleep.

Grounding - burroughing like a ground hog, a metal pole to catch lightening, a discipline for being out too late, flight cancellations caused by too much fog.

OK. Seriously, I have a terrible time with the word grounding. It connotes for me being run down, grounded then raped. I guess I use the idea of finding myself again in a different circumstance than I am reacting too.

I think the original is 'discharging pent up energy before overload of circuits'...
