It's good that I;'ve slept. Even all things being considered I am less anxious at mums then I have been at my old flat.

Still miss being at my own place though.

moving next at the end of this week. Finally getting excited about it. We got an apartment today. Its like just a few blocks from my church and Im right near a lot of my friends. Not as close to my family. But thats okay:wink:. Im not quite sure how were going to get the power and stuff turned on, cause at the moment we are still both unemployed, but we do have enought to get the apartment and put our stuff in it for the first two months anyways. Im excited. The hubby applied for a few jobs. One is just a few miles from the apartment and pays really well. I hope he gets it. Still very nervous, but Im sure God will provide. He has gotten us through worse. Might be putting the little guy down. Im sad about it but feel its probably the right thing to do. Its either that or give him back to the humane society, and I really feel as if that would hurt him much more. So I will look at pricing this week for it. I will miss him, but I love him so much I cant put him through anything else. Another move, Im afraid will just about be the end of him. Oh well. Thanks for everyones support. Not sure after Thursday, when I will be back on. Everyone has been a great help to me and I appreciate it so much. Cross your fingers for us. And if you got a prayer in ya, give us up one of those too.

CDunny,
I'll keep a candle lit for you. I'm amazed at the inner strength you have, tackling so much stress right now. Once you get settled, I do understand that an internet bill is the last thing you need to incur, but perhaps your church or the nearest library will have internet access for you. Before you move be sure to write down the website and pass words for places you frequent (like here *wink* )
You are a very kind person to not subject your dear friend to the trauma of a move.
Wishing you well on your new adventure,
Brightest Blessings,
Boo

If I may point out: taking "goodies" (which makes it sound like candy btw) and alcohol is only going to feed your PTSD. As long as you are sucking back this combination, your abilities to heal and manage your PTSD are greatly reduced.

Interesting I need to ask the nures about that one? My face bones were crushed so I don't know that I would be able to pull that off since I get arthritis in my face and memory pain combined.BOO! BOO! where are you tell me please... if I am being bad! Just teasing you!!!.Becvan... if it is true then what am I going to do?

Bec, you are right that pain medication should not be used to suppress "mental pain"

But both scarlette and myself have shattered our faces...
for me, the ache is constant, I've been referred to a pain specialist for it actually.
No amount of "positive thinking" will get rid of the pain we feel, because it is indeed physical

It sickens me to think I may be on some sort of pain med for the rest of my life, but nerve/bone damage is really really hard to fix.
Plus, with the cold weather outside, and the lack of circulation... my nose is freezing! Talk about adding to the discomfort!

The pain meds I take are completely priscribed, I don't take them more often than I should, and each and every doctor supports me being on them.

(thanks for pointing that out though, because under normal circumstances I don't recommend taking drugs or alcohol)

Thanks for clarifying that for me I had no Idea what she meant.Butas well for me with the constant pain.especially in the fall and winter a living hell.BesidesI never allow myself to get drunk so whats the harm and I only drink beer when nothing else works.Believe me my husband would put me in rehab if I had that problem.He did his x-wife.

 

[YoungAndAngry]

I'm starting to notice that when I DO drink, it's a much smaller amount than before I had PTSD.
Like lastnight, I drank 1 1/4 beer and passed out, lol
Just can't handle the drinks anymore:dontknow:

 

[scarlette_crimson]

thats cool.but if you had to drink more then that before you went to sleep no harm done sometimes I skip the beer and take a sleeping pill with a goody.
awww sweet coma but not bad enough that I can't wake up to piss or hear the kids.
