Is It Possible To Manage Ptsd With No Help

, I have to say perhaps I wish she were a tad more like you in the end, since she managed to not express pain until very nearly too late but you know what I mean. :)

Keep taking care of yourself at the moment, ok? Much hugs. Perhaps distract yourself by starting to work out a plan whereby we deprived US citizens might finally benefit from the addition of pork pies to the diet.:) I'm sure you still find that as shocking as I do, but then, we don't have health care, either- almost as shocking! :)

Thanks anni I will keep coming here, I am good at expressing my feelings :oops: Im gonna try and concentrate on my 2011 goals for the moment. No pork pies oh dear oh dear it just get worse anni :eek: il add them to the cornish pasties when I get round to sending them :D. Mind if I send too many you might need the healthcare :rolleyes:

.
If you want to help, be a rock. Be a foundation. Be a constant. Everyone needs that from someone, but especially those of us that can't seem to get our compasses to stay pointed north from day to day.

That is fully my intention to be the one consistent thing in her life to be there when she needs me, a real rock for her. I do like your compass analogy sums it up nicely.

She may not want to feel like she is burdening you?

It didn't feel like talking would do me any good, and it really felt like no one could help me anyway...but that was the depression talking.

Yes I think your right Philippa im sure she doesnt want to burden me I would gladly take some burden if it would help her though. She has told me that talking doesnt do her any good and only makes her angry to the point where she could kill someone ( literally she means). I do still ask her if she wants to talk when she says shes had a bad day or something but she always says no. I dont want to stop asking I want her to know that she can talk to me if or when she feels she wants to.
Thanks for your reply it has helped me understand a bit more she certainly is self reliant and does not want any outside help with anything.
