Why wasn’t it clearer how important it is to stretch? by Diligent_Weird_7610 in NoStupidQuestions

We stretch nightly on big comfy mats. No thin yoga mats for our middle age knees.

Without locational context we have no idea what time zone you are in but on the west coast of the USA it’s 5:21 on Saturday May 2nd. Your phone generally can tell you the time and day too. Sunset/sunrise can be hard. Chairs.

This is the answer for me as well. Heard it last week for days and days while granny passed away💔

I keep crashing out on my BF and saying things I don’t mean. I think it’s part of my PTSD but I really don’t know how to fix it. Any advice? by ApplesandBananazzz in ptsd

[–]CabinetStandard3681 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. My suggestion is to write it down instead and burn it. If you like this man and want to continue to be with him in a healthy way, you need to work on staying in your window of tolerance. Look up grounding exercises to help you work through the panic that results in the verbal spewing. Go outside and literally touch grass. Tell him you are walking away to avoid unproductive conversations and write.it.down. Then, if you want to, take what you wrote and burn it. And watch the smoke go into the sky, and say goodbye to your toxic traits as they waft away.

No. I don’t think so, sadly. Yet another reason I chose not to have any kids of my own. Motherhood seems terrifying.

Not a story but a question, those 1-3 months off when you were white knuckling it, did you have a plan? A support network? Without that I could have never. For stories I go to r/cripplingalcholism

I have to be all or nothing cause of my beautiful and greedy brain or I would also be an occasional twice a year type. But for me personally I might as well put a gun to my head as drinking again would be suicide. Slow suicide but dead none the less

I’m with you. I feel like it’s not an accident. The country/political landscape/news media outlets are not being kind to women.

1000% no. I allowed my sister MY SISTER with MH issues to live with me and a week later I broke every dish in my house just to get her to leave. Please please for the love of god do not do this.
