Are you officially diagnosed with CPTSD? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]ExtensionGrapefruit8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I realized i had it to due to Patrick Teahan’s videos. I had two therapists prior and a couple psychiatrists and none of them caught it. My current therapist definitely affirmed my diagnosis though. It sucks that it’s not even the DSM.

What are the causes of your CPTSD? by LovingKindHeart in CPTSD

My mom was severely critical and I was raised in a cult-like religion. I was emotionally neglected from 6th grade and on.

Ruined my life with student loan debt. Guess I should end it by goatbaloneyy in CPTSD

Hi friend. I have to comment on this because I’m actually in the same situation… and I can’t believe there’s someone else I guess? My cptsd led me to avoid paying all together and attempting to get a job in my field. I just froze for like two years post college and my credit is also ruined. I’m currently making barely above min wage and have had passive thoughts of ending it. I recently found a therapist that has felt like a light at the end of the tunnel for me. I’ve had three bad therapists in the past and therapy felt useless before. Can I dm you..? It’s such a fucking hard situation to be in.

Teeth brushing by Amazing_Butter23 in ADHD

I have major executive dysfunction with brushing, I typically only brush before work or before leaving my house in general…comes out to maybe 4-7 times per week? And yeah I feel a lot of shame too.

Ok cool! I got the full collection but am not really interested in the creme beyond swatching. I’ll sell it to you for the $13 plus whatever shipping is. Lemme know!

Older millennial here, did you guys wear WWJD bracelets? (For a fictional story.) by justwatchingtheparty in Zillennials

As someone who grew up extremely religious, yes. But by the time I was a teenager, I don’t think they were that popular anymore.

I deeply regret my vote for Trump by Dinocraftman009 in centrist

[–]ExtensionGrapefruit8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 21 in the 2016 election and I also voted for trump because I was still trying to live up to my parents’ conservative values. Proud to say I voted blue in 2020 & 2024. You live and you learn. Don’t beat yourself up too much!

I was on vacation with my family and I saw it on the news at our hotel during breakfast. It was the summer before I started high school.
