Re: Healing hurts

@Glisten sorry re typo, I meant "trauma-informed".

Sorry, my little phone isn't too good with PGC or Chatwee, and I'm slow conversationally.

Blue Knot lists impacts of cptsd and other sites list symptoms. I have many, including MH, physical, chronic pain, and behavioural, many unaddressed. Feeling helpless hopeless and alone, and having never felt at home. Late last year I started EMDR for the memories but it's not an answer to trying to sleep at night or face the day or find connection. I've largely shut down. I've been incapacitated lately, pretty much housebound. I go days or weeks without interacting other than online. 

My anxiety peaks with adverse circumstances and there seem too many at present. My psychologist is pausing or cancelling treatment until my medical problems have been dealt with. Maybe after that I'll be better able to cope with household stuff and family issues.

I feel as though cptsd has white-anted my life but it's a very new realisation.

@Dimity  I hope doctors can help your pain soon?

Thank you for your support I appreciate your time and guidance.

Re: Healing hurts

Yes thanks @Glisten finally but one thing at a time. I'm terrified of the surgeries coming up soon. This seems a year of tackling things.

Give Blue Knot a go. I think they specialise in childhood trauma while yours may be more recent ɓut they're very helpful.

Well am nearly over my flu, felt rotten for a few days, did my interview and I think I did well -- well I felt relaxed and answered all the questions without falling over my words, so I feel good about it.....Asgard

Re: Healing hurts

@Asgardif you want them to call, you need to have a shower, be on the toilet,  delivery of some kind arrives at your door or you go on holiday LOL 😂 

It’s the rule that job offers phone calls must come at the most inconvenient time lol
