Ptsd & Mdma


I ll spare you the details because even I can admit when I m being childish. To summarize I went to see a therapist, through my university. I had seen a couple of T s before but for only one session. I ended up having six sessions with this T. I went towards the end of the semester so our sessions ended when the semester ended.

Ptsd & Mdma


I wondering if there are any, one week or two weeks programs that would be possible for me to take for PTSD, in either, Canada or United States. At this point in time I am willing to try anything to deal with my PTSD. The prescriptions I m on dont seem to be working as well, and any of the therapies I have seen dont work for me. Lately I have been on a roller coaster ride of emotions, I am not able to function probably! I have read a few article on therapists using MDMA to deal with PTSD,... Ptsd & Mdma

Distraction During Sufferer's Isolation


Ok supporters, my sufferer is isolating after a frustrating medical appointment. I ve had radio silence for a few days except for a few "I m alive" texts. I know he ll be fine eventually... but I m bored and missing him. I need a distraction. If we could all go out and have a fun night out, what would we do? Sky s the limit.

The Body Keeps The Score


There is a book that was just released here in the United States called "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel van der Kolk MD, a longtime researcher of PTSD. I just started to read it and I can barely put it down. Highly recommended.

Grinding Teeth - Need Clues!


Hi ppl! So...I grind my teeth while sleeping since I was 3 or 4 y/o. Have C-PTSD. Yeah, sucks. Anyways, I know that grinding teeth at night is a response to stress, but what kind of stress? I mean...stress related to what? Fear of what? Anxious about what? Since most of the abuse I suffered is hidden in when I was a baby I struggle to find answers because I obviously don t "remember" anything. Any clues of what it means or how to find out?
