how is everyone doing?

i just think it's nice to be asked sometimes. so how are you all doing?

Thanks, carrie_ann.

I'm feeling the weight of the stuff I have yet to divulge to R, and pre-emptive frustration at not being able to get everything out in the time that remains to us. (Two weeks, then a three week break...and then who knows.)

What I don't understand is that I can be fine one minute, and then I'm back there again.

How are you today?

hi LostOnTheTrail, i've not had a good few days but i'm feeling better now. are you feeling any better today?

for all

I'm doing pretty good, except for bad memories that keep popping up. I manage them so it's okay.

Just okay thanks for asking.

glad you're doing pretty good despite memories, stay strong

well, just okay is better than bad, no?

Hi folks, I'm jumping in here because I have PTSD from a natural disaster, and I was triggered the other day and had a panic attack that started at work. It was so exhausting, and two days later I'm still feeling off balance and seeking attention from people. Memories of the trauma make me panic and desperate for someone to save me, so I get very needy and clingy with the people in my life. Sometimes it's kind of inappropriate. This is difficult for everyone.

Thank you all for being here and understanding.

hey Blaire, sorry it's a tough time for you right now and i hope being here helps

I lost this thread for a while...

I'm closer to the precipice than I was when I wrote my first post here. Three more sleeps until my last session before the break. Either it all comes out then, or I'm stewing with it for three weeks.

hang in there ((((LostOnTheTrail)))) ... and you can do this, i know you can

I was triggered on Saturday & friends saw me shake from head to toe & dissociate. It took me a long time to move past it & was completely exhausted afterwards. I couldn't sleep & was completely unsettled. I just wish that I could have some warning!!! At least then I might be prepared!! Anyone would think I was about to be killed by a tiger! Trying to explain to those who don't suffer is really difficult & quite frustrating at times.

((((JoBo)))) sorry to hear this, it's rough and you're right about trying to explain, i struggle with that too, hope you're feeling a bit better now

Hi everyone. I have PTSD I just rarely post in this subforum.

Hugs Jo.

I'm alright.
