10 Years After Traumatic Incident. Still Haven't Told My Psych About It.

You have a personality clash with or have a fear of them? I am doing group work for my assignments but I am scared of this person. She hasn t done anything but I can t seem to converse with them. The communication in our group is lacking. We are allowed to change our group.

Would You Work In A Group You Think...

Do you feel it s important to discuss the Abuse with your therapist in order to "move past" it? I have mixed emotions. I hate the person I am and I know it s because of the abuse I suffered. So does changing my outlook about me and life require me to talk about what happened? However, I am afraid to relive the abuse by talking about it and I am worried about my therapist hearing it- I don t want my therapist to experience it through my words. It s not fair to her. Thoughts?

Natural Meditation Or Physiognomic Shutdown? Does It Matter...

Everyone has a harsh inner critic. I know I definitely do. We say these horrible things to ourselves and somehow it s acceptable. When the same words are spoken to someone else it s obvious how harsh and how painful the words really are. I just watched this video and I thought I d share it. http://aplus.com/a/dove-inner-thoughts-campaign?utm_campaign=i102&utm_source=a16702

Does Anyone Else Mask Their Anxiety?

I ve come to the conclusion that as a PTSD INTJ female, I will have to settle for mostly imaginary friends in life. I m lucky to have my husband as my BFF. Maybe it s best. Do you think having PTSD makes it very hard to feel like you can make friends, as an adult?

Sexual Abuse /assult

Listening to "thump, thump, thump" on the couch made me think of a great thread. What is the funniest thing your pet does that makes you laugh the most or has done that you still today laugh about it? My dog wags his tail in his sleep! Only dog Ive ever seen do that. He is one of the most active sleepers I have seen, aside from the "get up and run into the wall while asleep" dog that went virial. He hasnt quite gone that far but he isnt far behind that. He is quite vocal in his sleep... Tales Of Tails!
