SELF HARMING WITH PTSD
Self harm takes many forms, and perhaps all of us with PTSD do it in some way. I have over the years practised many ways of awhich could almostbe seen in some light as ritualistic also.
We have PTSD those of us that come here that are genuine and are trying to work through may not always recognise certain types of behaviours we do as un healthy, particulary when we know or even when we dont know ourselves and our condition all that well.
Over the years I have bounced around through being anorexic, bulemic, an alcoholic, promiscuous, and an abstainer also of everything, Life included And much more besides too. I tried at one point almost to live and die in the fast lane and there have been those along the waythat tried to enable me in all respects to achieve my goal in life I can see that now better that not all of them were looking out for me at all But it doesnt have to be that way. It just doesn't.
I hope you will read on and continue working through everything here. No one can make you do this stuff if you dont want to. And no one can give you reasons if you dont or cant see the reasons. But no matter what your reasons are here you are here and that deserves respect and congratulations for your commitment. No matter why or how, we are all trying here and it is a strength to all our YOUR courage and commitment also. Be strong... because just by reading and working through you are learning and inspiring others to do the same.
It isnt easy to be troubled always, it isnt easy to work hard when we feel like giving up, it isnt easy to juggle life with anything no matter what that is and all of us here should be applauded and we are all pretty tough cookies maybe. We are here and working and in that there is a lot to be said for who we all are.
Thankyou
If you have read this thankyou for all the support you have given and shown me. Thankyou that are you are a friend and thankyou for all you have gone through in your life that has brought you alongside me today. I thank this forum for helping me get this far along the way ... it isnt easy .. none of it is easy but then nothing ever worth having was all that easy ... it all very much depends on your point of view with all of it.
find your priorities here and work each small step, they are bigger than you could possibly know perhaps and they might save a life also. If you can be bold be bold and perhaps offer out a hand and make a new friend today, be safe and take care and maybe remember it doesnt always have to be all or nothing either
thankyou
