By no means have I tried to "rip you a new one" - believe me, you'd know all about it if I did. I'm not going to comment on your miraculous experience, I'm glad you have some measure of relief and that whatever you're doing work for you. I will however, stand by my assertion that any standardised test won't give a zero result across all measures in a normally healthy, mentally balanced person.
 
You know, I hope you do well with your book.... just sorry that as a very vulnerable huge population here, it was not the best way to go about advertising.... too many people are looking for quick answers and less work... not saying either of those are in your book.... but I honestly feel violated that you came to our safe place , and it was 'a lot of reading' to find out how it works here...

We do have some very knowledgeable people here who know what they are talking about when they share about 'tests'.... so, if nothing else, I hope you have learned what NOT to do to sell your book....

And possibly, had you taken any time to read around the forum... if your heart is in the right place about sharing your story, you would have seen that we are not stupid, trust is a huge issue.... and we do have policies in place to protect us...

Sorry you were more concerned in 'helping us' than hearing what we have to say.... there is A LOT of healing that goes on here....

And sorry you missed out on getting to know some really strong people , that share , and support..... and work very hard to have some quality of life... and we are fine, thank you !!!
 
"I want to spread my message because there were so many people who told me I could never really be happy again and it made me suicidal."

You said this in your first post but then you later say that nobody told you that you could never be happy, that it was something you told yourself.

I think people are not going to believe you because you say things and then deny saying them. It doesn't matter what you lie about, if you lie about something minor, people will doubt your whole story. I hope that you stick to the truth from now on, whatever that may be, as there is nothing that you have to remember, you just tell the story as it truly is.

Can I ask how long you have been symptom free?

A clinical test is really not proof that you are symptom free. It is more of a gauge of symptoms to be used in a private setting as the results are only as accurate as the truthfulness of the client. Those of us who have taken such tests know how it's not scientific like a blood test or allergy scratch test, and we know how those psych tests can be faked or fudged because they're 100% based on self-reporting. I believe that you are experiencing reduced symptoms, but using those test results in your book is probably a bad idea as I think that is what is alienating people here. If you just say you have a reduction in symptoms to sub-clinical levels that means you aren't diagnosable anymore, I think people would be a lot more receptive to what you say. Can you share the name of the test that you used?
 
I personally love Tony Robbins

Really? Wow, that says a lot!

Im trying to tell my experience to people who are open to it, not have them rip me a new one after i share one of the most painful experiences of my life

No one on here "ripped you a new one" and that wouldn't be allowed anyway. Opinions are all together different from an attack.


Just like ALL tests, this is a score from "never" to "always" and numbers in between. Yes "suicidal" can be "never" but simply being sad isn't. We are all human. Having flashbacks could have fully gone away, maybe anger too, but we humans get nervous. We humans get angry. You have a scale. Not much is fully never unless you are lying. You have seldom, sometimes, common in between. And the TSI, unlike most tests, is on a point scale. So .50, .13, 5.5 etc. Makes it an even more accurate test. So, if it's under 1, instead of zero it goes into a point scale.

she had never seen these results before

there are a lot of people who wont believe me.

Because they don't happen when someone is fully honest!

No one told me I would never be happy again

Happy is different and isn't a 0 score. I believe you are happy and never said you weren't.

I dont believe that it will "fix" everyone with PTSD, i have and would never say that.

You are promoting yourself as a "fix all" in my opinion. It is how it reads. Like an advertisement.
 
Ok, so I will become the one that stands out here. If you feel that you've been cured.... Good for you. I think whatever works for a person, then it works. Good luck on your book, I hope you make millions!!!!
 
Sounds like that chick here in Australia, who claimed she had cancer, became miraculously cured, was that good a liar she got a publishing company to sell a book on her experience, then it all came out as total bullshit and false. She faked everything, even including medical reports and scans. She ended up in court for false claims and now has a massive debt to repay in lawsuit and fines for all the fraudulent monies.

I love a good recovery story, but I despise bullshit tacked on with marketing.

interesting since you also dont know what test you are talking about
I don't need to know what test. All standardised psychological tests are built this way. If you were given any other type of test, then it wasn't a standardised, approved, psychological test, which means your score is total bullshit regardless. It doesn't matter which way you try and swing this, your outcome is bullshit for you. You have no idea about the psychological components behind the scenes which derive outcomes. If you did, you wouldn't be claiming this nonsense as part of your marketing pitch.
