Sufferer Trauma is blocking me, and I can't find any satisfaction in life. I feel as I've failed everything, cannot move forward with anything.

Magic you can grow them legally pretty much anywhere in the US aside from a few states, so I'd do your research first. Shroom tek has a great beginners bag

It is tough going through all you are going through. And none of it your fault. I’ve only been on this site 24 hours but feel the relief of others out there who know exactly what I’m talking about. No one downplays how awful and a waste of time and life PTSD is in whatever form. A great resource.

For me, EMDR is the one thing that has made the biggest difference. The qualifying factor is that I had, and now have, therapists who only deal in trauma and primal-nonverbal trauma. I have not chosen anyone who deals with all sorts of issues along with trauma. Nor have I gone to someone who had EMDR as one of many possible tools. But that was my criteria for choosing someone, someone with that focus and particular field of interest.

I’ve lived with this since birth and I’m now 56 and have had bursts of progress on the way and now see a complete way out laid before me now that I’ve stopped repeating my initial abandonment and terror imprint.

What I’m trying to say is that by being here and connecting you have made progress and that the healthy bits of you are ushering you towards help and healing.

May you keep that light moving you forward.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Means a lot. You're right about everything you've wrote. I've got an appointment with a new therapist, and this time I'm gonna ask about it right away among everything I'm expecting and I will see if he will be right for me or not. In the past, with my other therapist, My mistakes were to haven't stood up in the beginning for what I needed. I thought oh these guys are doctors so I must trust them, they know what they're doing.. but the thing is, I've wasted years with one of them and in the end it was just disappointing. When I moved he said he would still give me distance sessions in order to not let me drown and then he just used any kind of lame reasons and let me out there when I didn't had anyone at all for therapy or any support. And I unfortunately had to endure some harassment from stupid people where I lived, all alone, without family or friends around. But I managed until I found a therapist who still had a place for me, but I couldn't see him a lot because he was fully booked. That made me become stronger, and less dependent on these doctors. Also made me less naive about them. Seeing even Doctors can be nasty too. And now I realise I need less of them. Unless is a medical need. Of course I'm far from being living like most people , still alone, but it does feel better to be able to speak about these stuff with people who truly understands it, and who aren't judging. Thank you ALL

There are good therapists but it can be hard to find them. I'm still searching. I would advice against psychedelics, especially against the use of it without a therapist that supports it and has knowledge, it just is too risky.
Propranolol lessens the emotional response, this can be helpful in therapy, there are studies about it. Sadly many doctors and therapists don't know about this aspect of propranolol.

Hi, thanks for your message, I wasn't planning on psychedelics anyway. I'm not sure I would even with a Dr subscription... Its hard to get also a good connection with a therapist so I will see if I'm lucky or not ..

Hi, I haven’t had any therapy yet, I’m waiting for EDMR but I found that the more I meditated the more my nervous system is recalibrating itself. Once you become very aware of tension etc in the body, even a small uncomfortable sensation, the meditation helps so much and you can’t do too much of it either !
