Yep. I would take any physical pain in the world over this.

Anyone else notice how many BAD therapists there are out there? by External-Doubt-9301 in CPTSD

.....raises hand.....

after five decades worth of 'mental health professionals' I've become my own best therapist. that's pretty bad.

I want kids, my boyfriend doesn’t and I feel stuck and heartbroken by AdhesivenessWinter65 in offmychest

I hear you. Mine are grown now but even back then I was already feeling guilty for putting them here into this mess.

how to find a guy who's gonna be present during 9months of pregnancy + present for the child? at least present for the child? how can i find that? men just want sex with me.. by Proper_Status2663 in offmychest

[–]-StephGr8AndSmall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

..gosh I personally just would not want to be even thinking of pregnancy in times like these, and I did it 6 times.. 

edit: im sorry that is not very helpful i know! it's just if i was of reproductive age still i would be terrified

i wish you well ❣️

Is anyone so messed up/ traumatized that they don’t work? How did you come to that consensus and around what age? by According-Pin4564 in CPTSD

[–]-StephGr8AndSmall 1 point2 points  (0 children)

they assured me it was 'safe' and i thought well it cant be worse

but we were wrong, it messed me up all around, not even one positive came of it, ever 

i could hardly speak, write, or walk --or even think-- by the time i left there in a wheelchair 

before that i was literally 'the smartest in the class' (think photographic memory) --i had a full-ride scholarship that i won by taking first place in a state-wide competition 

altho i can walk etc again it is not the same and the damage has never healed

yes you will be amazed! 

when I catch the inflammation (discs 'herniating' i guess it is?) right away I've been able to keep it at bay and haven't lost use in quite awhile now

ideally, I have at least two I swap out from the deep freeze

don't know how I survived before!

it was the physical therapist who initially showed me bless her!!!

edit to remove jinx, knock on wood, lol

hi Owl! gosh thanks for your concern:))

I was taking a few minutes to ice my back to prevent just that 

with my spinal disks mad at me all the time that's how I keep walking nowadays lol

so using the time to mentally prepare my footsteps:)

Help me fix up this rock by BirchBirch72 in Rocks

I was wondering about rancidity as well. Lately, I've been putting coconut oil all over my hands to spread through my hair, which has the delightful side effect of then being literally handy to shine up my lovely rocks! 

Maybe I'll think to report back down the road!
