This Is How I Experience Dissociation (in Parts)

Post/Part 1- Bodily Dissociation Really am wondering if other people experience great levels of disconnect in their body s and their surroundings? I m going to list some things I ve been dealing with that I believe are dissociative in nature. Bear in mind these examples that I ve listed are not instances that happen constantly. I don t know why these things happen and why they only happen 40 - 70% of the time. And sometimes I can go for months with no dissociative episodes or symptoms...

So this is a forum game I didn t see on here. I post 6 random letters and the next poster makes a real sentence that would make sense out of them then leave 6 more for the jext poster and so on.

Narcissist Repellant!

I understand some people are lonely out there, and so they post just for the sake of posting. But do you ever get fed up with people that won t help themselves?? They always ask for advice and don t follow it. You are doing your best to be helpful and they don t get it, or don t try. Does it drive you nuts, tic your ptsd? Do you get at wits end, frustrated, annoyed?? Is it just me?

Huff Post Article About Being Lonely In Your Marriage

So I would just like to start off by saying, thank you for whoever took the time to read my story. I am not used to people taking the time out to acknowledge how I am feeling or even know what I am going through. Here goes nothing.. Everything is very new to me, I have never really opened up to people about what is going on inside my mind and I am not one to admit that there is something wrong or that I have a problem.

What Contributed To Your (c)ptsd?

No idea where I come up with these things, but as I was flitting around town yesterday, I wondered to myself what it would be like if we all lived in a town together....as neighbours. I guess I got to thinking about it because I have been supported this past while through some pretty rough times and the questions that people are asking me, the insights they are giving me, are pretty spot on. Nothing that normal people would be able to hit on. I used to live with a friend when I was... If We All Lived In The Same Town....

The Day My Life Changed.

this journey of cptsd has been so lonely!! Good friends old friends have all receded and I am too uncertain of our bond to risk being open. Lonely. Uncertain. Afraid. These words sum up the last ten years. Having an experience few can relate to, suffering alone, grieving alone, judged, the onset of PTSD. The death of trust. Ring another hopeless crisis line. They ask if I have mental illness and if I ve taken my medication. Is this the world I have to try to live in? nobofy rings any more.... Constant Search For Affirmation

I Don't Know What To Do.

I need some advice on some things. My dad has been touching me places that I don t want him to and whenever I ask him to stop he doesn t listen. I m being forced to go on a week long camping trip with him and his male friends and I do not feel comfortable. I tried telling my mom, but she told me to suck it up and go. I don t know what to do. My friend with ptsd directed me here because she said the people were very helpful.
