no one I really admire. Only one person I am not fond of. But I'm still polite. No need to start any fights.

But I have made some great friends on here and that is what I always think of when I log on.

I wanna go fishing
too bad you're so far away, it's a great night for catfishin'


Your a tease sad
Didn't mean it as a tease, I'm afraid I won't get to go much now that I don't have a boyfriend anymore. I could do an all girls fishin trip though, why not, the guys always seem to use it as an excuse not to take us


I do that from time to time. Might have one on Monday but that means I have to wait. I hate waiting.

Well where to start (without going into details). I was abused from the age of 4 to 12. I almost died several times during this. I was diagnosed as having PTSD when I was 21. The therapist suspects it was affecting me from the 4th grade on. My triggers are almost impossible to avoid as most of them are visual. I do have the extreme end of it. I've been having the black outs since 5th grade. Use to get into trouble in school because I would get up and walk around when I was told to sit in my desk. Teacher would ask me why I got up and I honestly told them that I didn't. I have zero memories from my black out points. I have found very few people who have it to my extent and even fewer who can understand what it is like to live like me.

A video about PTSD to share

Worst is what you will go through when you do break the barrier finally. You suffered some very deep traumas that are conversely triggered by common visual cues. Again in an extreme case like this it is getting past the point of helplessness that is the core of these episodes. i knew a woman who had a similar condition where she literally "shut down" under stress. when she finally did manage to face her trigger it turned out to be parental sexual abuse. She had a BAD breakdown and required a whole new type of counseling. Once she got her feet under herself and she got past the self loathing she stopped having her shut downs. Her blackouts she would sit there eyes open and just not move or blink even for minuets. For a while she had the crying phase where visuals would set her off and even certain phrases. AS time passed though and she faced herself and learned to accept herself even as 'flawed' (like anyone is perfect!) she began to finally lead a "normal" life.

You really do not have an easy road to walk. One day you will have to face yourself and that is where the fun begins. Self blame is a part of is deep down inside. Your Mantra should be "It was not me and that which does not kill me makes me stronger!" You suffer from a variant of Stressor Shut Down or Symptomatic Narcolepsy. It is actually very common more among women than men but it usually has DEEP sexual components as well. I hope you can eventually break the cycles you are stuck in and can move on to a more happy and fulfilling life!



Actually already been threw all that. Believe it or not who I am now is a vast improvement to who I use to be. I haven't blamed myself since I was 21 years old. I work with a therapist who specializes in PTSD. According to her I'm as good as I'm going to get with the extent of what happened to me. I've already had my crash. And I've climbed my way back up. Cured doesn't always mean back to societies normal. Am I violent? No I've never been. According to the therapist I mentioned me being violent is the last thing I have to worry about. There are other stress related disorders that are similar that cause violence but a ptsd person is more likely to run then confront. I know I'm better then I was because I can now confront. For many years if I thought the person would get mad at me I wouldn't say anything. I wouldn't take the chance. Because of how far I've come I've actually been asked to talk in schools explaining both service animals and PTSD. You are right about the confronting though. People with it also need to talk about it in situations that they feel conformable. They need to desensitize themselves to their stimulus. One of the best ways is to talk. I'm not saying go up to some stranger on the street and start spilling your life story. Find someone who understands or has gone threw something similar.

Hey I'm not the one who originally said it. And please don't get upset at anyone for their answers. Only reason I started this topic was to try to understand how some people were thinking. I'm starting to realize that most of it may be from misunderstandings. If someone doesn't know the truth about a certain condition they may try to avoid people with it.


At least that is what I'm noticing.

happens all the time with me. Like I already said else where I got my own challenges. They only really become problems for me when people don't understand them. Because of misdiagnoses of many people out there few people understand it. So they get to know me. Have a blast! Go out drinking, to a coffee shop, fishing a couple of times... then the question comes up "why do you have a service dog?". I'm a very honest person and I tell them. All the sudden there is no contact. Not a phone call to explain why nothing.
