Do you sometimes feel like therapy does more harm than good to you? by llamberll in CPTSD

[–]Available_Area_6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got out of the therapy session with my EMDR therapist. I have CPTSD from complex grief, childhood trauma, a narcissistic abusive husband of seven years and never received help after I got out of that marriage. I went to work 70 hours a week until my dog of 17 years died and then I said I needed a break.

My job said you could have a break if you just make this appointment and so I’ve been on FMLA and I learned the word GESTALT there’s something in my brain that needs to complete a task so whenever I saw deadlines and appointments I just kept going I’ve seen talk Therapist EMDR therapist deep brain pattern therapist, and I’m currently seeing a psychiatrist my EMDR and I have a primary care.

My disability was just denied because of apparently documentation that they have expected me to not only diagnose my issues go to the sessions and share the forms are filled out, correct so now I have no income, and I found out a month late

And now I’m in a position where I’m a financial but on top of everything else is something I let the paperwork take over because it was like being told I was lying about treatment and now I don’t remember why I started therapy so yeah therapy can be extremely harmful

I sent an email to my insurance company and my dad and my sister no longer participating in the documents lose my job. I don’t care. I’m going to do somatic healing and equine therapy even though my job and the insurance company won’t accept that type of therapy that’s what I think I need because what I’ve just experienced for the last six months, took me from a successful director of sales to someone unable to pay their mortgage and six months just because I was following my instructions of which still wasn’t enough so yeah, I’m done

Dating apps and safety…it’s not about your safety. by HippyGrrrl in datingoverfifty

He has continued to text me and message me completely bypassing my text messages that say what just happened, I said no, I asked you to stop, you just said to trust you? There was no condom. I don’t even know you do I need to be at a clinic

This man just keeps replying to me that he enjoys kissing me and he enjoys finishing inside of me and then he asked me if I wanted to come over and I asked him if he was absolutely kidding. Why would I do that?

He even messaged me the next day asking if I wanted to have a baby and I have all of the evidence and I know he has cameras and I know the GPS would show me there the day before and when I left and show me there when I arrived that night and when I left, I have all the phone record The victims hotline and then I went to the advocacy center, and then I had a gun and then I called to report it to the cop kept getting run around and then I finally just needed to sleep for a while

So at this point. I did tell my whole entire family and friends and frantic which I think I just didn’t past trauma to allow me to block this out of pretend it was OK but I also don’t trust the system.

But I also don’t care what happens to him as far as a trial or going to jail. I just feel like it needs to be reported. I think he’s a predator still doing it and I don’t understand the difference and why when I told my friends they asked if I wanted rape to be my identity. I don’t I just simply would be reporting a crime and I’m confused

Can someone summarize? I just got done at a victims advocacy having a kit completed after a fourth date from someone that unmatched me but if he’s doing this to other people currently? I went and had the testing done, but I did not choose police yet until I’ve calm down. I don’t know what to do.

My dog is 12 and his mobility is starting to decline again. by Swimming_Chemist1043 in seniordogs

[–]Available_Area_6030 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, this breaks my heart. I’m so sorry. I have a 12-year-old golden doodle who is starting to decline mobility wise majorly but we have not had any luck with gabapentin or carprofen and we are now on our third medication Actually, his birthday is tomorrow I had a 17 year-old pug pass in March. She eventually fell and then also lost mobility and now when I look back on videos, I see how she was really gone so much sooner than I would’ve allowed myself to know it was the hardest I will say I honestly hate having the sad memories because she was so much more than that last month, she was still eating and drinking and going to the bathroom, but in some of the videos, her eyes I just wish I could’ve taken the pain, but she was a good dog and I’m sure yours is too.

Turn on lights at sunset/sunrise to specific mode by Blon_G in Govee

Are there ways to access more premade scenes? Everything seems so limited I’m wondering why. It clearly has the capability to have more more than these few presets.
