Listen
Understand
Try to listen
Try to understand
Care
Want to care...

I have this knot in my throat , id just need someone to be willing to listen and understand and care, but they dont. They dont.

So i'm left all alone with my flashes not being able to sleep... I'm tired!
Nobody cares, they dont....

Sinking, I hate that you are feeling so alone with your pain right now and am wondering who THEY are, the ones who don't listen or care? Would it feel safe for you to risk sharing that here? Maybe we could listen and hear you.

Hi sinking: I'm sorry there is no one there to listen, understand or care for you... You deserve to have all of these things in your life. I hope that what little bit of listening, understanding & caring we here on PC can offer you can be of some small comfort.

I also hope that all of us on PC can offer some support and a listening ear. We care and we hear you. You deserve to be heard and have support. I hope that if you are in IP now you will feel better. Sending you healing vibes and good wishes!

No most don't. Took me years to find someone who does.

Yes they are supposed to help and ironically the ones we need most help from are often the ones who least help.
I hope that you can talk about it here or with a close friend who will listen and hear you. Sounds like what you need to say is important and needs to given a voice.

I'm sorry people aren't listening to you. I'm sorry the professionals aren't doing their jobs and continue to let you down. That's not fair at all. I really hope you get the help you need, and soon, because you deserve it.

I struggled with that for years.....then I realized that it was my own problem in that I didn't know what or how to communicate what I needed to. It took going through 2 years of DBT weekly & learning the skills & the understanding of how to put what I was feeling into words. They can't do it for us, it's something we have to learn ourselves though it does take being taught & gaining the understanding in order to put the thoughts & feelings into words that they can understand. It is a long process & a lot of work on both sides.

I also realize now that when I was living with my H (I left 8 years ago), that he was incapable of understanding what I was saying or having any emotional connection. After researching what a T had told me when I first left & was explaining my marriage problems, he suggested the possibility of my H having Asperger's.....many months of research & I realized that had been what I was dealing with & exactly why there was a serious communication problem. I also realized that I grew up with a father who was just like my H.....so I was NEVER around anyone who taught me how to have normal communications with people or gave good examples to learn from. Its a lot harder to learn on our own when we don't have good examples growing up to how to communicate from.......DBT & learning the skills gave me the words & understanding so I could finally communicate & people started to listen & understand.
