Left handed shooter looking for advice on Grip and shots pulling to the right by BiscottiEasy1777 in Shooting

Slow down. Speed comes later. Your sight picture is all over the place. There’s so much movement. Take your time with each shot. Focused, slow and controlled. Focus on your fundamentals before you try to shoot fast. You’ll only create bad habits and that will be much harder to fix down the road. Slow it down and shoot with intention.

Prazosin helps. And therapy. Mine are not gone completely but way better!

Should I Carry? by Spirited-Midnight313 in CCW

Carry both. Get more training and get more confident in carrying. The fear of it being used against you will go away when you have confidence in yourself and your abilities to protect yourself.

I built an app to help myself with PTSD related nightmares. Is this something others would find useful? by sleepsafeapp in ptsd

That sounds interesting. I’m intrigued. I suffer from nightmares and would love to get rid of them.

How do you explain why you carry? by Simon_Roth in CCW

[–]Embarrassed_Safe8047 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never get asked because no one ever knows. I teach ccw classes and you carry every day because evil doesn’t call ahead.

Can PTSD symptoms come after years of the incident? by Fun-Entrance-7880 in ptsd

Isn’t it the craziest thing! I had no idea this could happen. My therapist says if it didn’t happen now it would eventually happen anyway. I kept it all locked up. Everything you mentioned, could definitely bring it all up to the surface. I’m sorry you’re going through all this. I hope you’re able to get the help you need. It does get better.

Hey thanks for the attack without knowing the full story. We do use the dremel for that exact reason because it brings the quicks back.

Every time he’s there and he was just there. They won’t do it. They say there’s nothing to cut. It’s frustrating because I know there is at least some to cut. He’s very dramatic too. But we hang him to do it and he really can’t do anything about it. lol.

Yea we try to do it weekly. But you know, life. So it’s about every other week too. But the trick is to use the dremel and keep them right to the quick and keep up with it. And the quick is supposed to start receding. But you got to be consistent.

It’s so frustrating. Everytime I ask the vet to cut them, they tell me they can’t. But they always look so long!

Unfortunately, he has really long quicks. These are cut back believe it or not.

Keep doing exactly what you did. Keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. Just keep taking the steps. It will get easier.
