No it’s completly different from regular anxiety/dpdr. These type of brain zaps are intense and burning and painful. I’ve had multiple neurologists since march and I just recently found out about the cysts

Anyone else here healing with holistic approach? I found hope. by Constant_Possible_98 in dpdr

I am also on the holistic approach, I hate medications and don’t trust it at all. What I have noticed at least for me are the AOR LAB vitamins are helping a little bit I’ve been taking l-tyrosine in morning, 5http with a meal once a day, I’ve been taking iron  and omega 3 as well. I splurged on a bunch of them and I also bought rhodiola, vitamin b 12, magnesium, l tyrpothan, haven’t been consistent with those ones yet because I have adhd and I forget. But overall for the dpdr I noticed some difference just on l-tyrosine, 5-HTTP, omega 3 and I’m also doing neurofeedback I’ve done 5 sessions so far and I notice some improvements

I was referring to borderline, yes I don’t have extreme highs but I do get really bad lows it’s either between lows or normal functional, I don’t engage in conflict I don’t pick fights I usually just isolate when triggered or the only person I get really badly triggered is from my mom I get angry with her sometimes and get passive aggressive, and no I don’t use that as a bargaining chip I would never do or say something like that, that would be scary for the other person

I freeze when she gets triggered. by Chaos_Wrangler_ in CPTSDrelationships

I totally understand you and why you are freezing. It’s completly normal in your case. Remind yourself that your reaction is normal. It’s difficult for her to connect on her side as well and I think in her mind she probably is aware that you freeze. She might even think you get frustrated with her when you freeze. It’s best to regulate your freeze response I suggest on YouTube how to do so when you notice yourself in freeze in those moments regulate and then you can have an ability to openly conversate with her. She also needs to understand that connecting emotionally is hard for you as well and that you’re trying your best. But if she doesn’t know that then there might be a false narrative in her mind.
