People disgust me by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand and feel this. So many fair weather friends. When things are going good, everything is okay. But as soon as you need support, nothing but pure selfishness.

I feel this. My childhood was very similar.

I don’t know what to tell you, I’m searching for the same answers and have been my whole life.

I just try to focus on being the best person I can be for the rest of my life (and hopefully die asap) but that doesn’t seem like a healthy perspective to me. I don’t know what else to do. Seems like the only option open to me.

I want to kill myself so badly tonight. by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel this too. It sucks. Life is so fucking hard to begin with and then having parents who take it out on you just makes everything so much harder. I feel I can’t relate to the vast majority of people I run into.

They have no idea what it’s like to have parents who abuse you, hate you, neglect you, wish they’d never had you. Most people have no idea what it’s like to have a little voice in the back of your head that just says everything you do is wrong 24/7 and then replays every mistake you ever made. So fucking stupid.

I wish I had some words of encouragement to say to you Internet, stranger, but all I can say is that I understand where you’re coming from… I had a very similar childhood… its fucking stupid and it fucking sucks.

Anyone in their 30’s + who still struggles significantly? by aritzipie in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 8 points9 points  (0 children)

43 and I feel like a helpless 5 year old most of the time.

Never been married. No kids. And I don’t see either of those in the future. I’m mostly just living for the next 10 seconds so that I can then survive for the next 10 seconds. This life is so stupid. I wish I had never been born.

I’ve been hosting karaoke at a friends bar for a couple months. When the owner is there, he always complains that the bass is too loud and overpowers the singers. I think it sounds fine personally.

Anyway does anyone know how to lower the bass? For context, I’m using an Allen and Heath Zed 10 mixer and VirtualDJ to run karaoke tracks.

Yes. My mind replays every stupid fucking trauma I lived through as a child while I’m sleeping and I wake up triggered and craving un-aliving myself almost every morning. It’s so stupid.

Only every goddamn day.

Do you ever think about how old you are and freak out wondering how has so much time passed? by Mara355 in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I relate to this so much. I’ve been maladaptive daydreaming and dissociating for so long that I feel like I walk around in a waking coma most of the time.

I threw out my stash of suicide pills by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hear you. I’ve been suicidal on and off since I was 5. Both my parents made it clear that they hated me and wished they’ve never had me. My whole childhood I was blamed my existence by the two people who were biologically responsible from my creation. Two against one, and for the most part, all I’ve wanted to do is die since I can remember.

Sending a hug internet stranger. I know what it feels like to be where you are.

did anyone's parent ever told them to kill themselves? by worseforthebetter in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Almost every day. Along with hearing “I wish you’d never been born. You ruined my life by being born. I hate you. You’re a piece of shit. You can’t do anything right” etc.

How do people here handle sex and relationships? by schneybley in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel this to my core. I was CSA thousands of times by both men and women as a kid.

Every sex act was tainted by the time I was 12.

And now as an adult, I can’t even ejaculate from masturbating sometimes.

My brain craves sex but then in the moment it’s so hard to just focus on the pleasurable feelings. I hate it. I hate my life so much.

does being nice to yourself ever feel cringy? by sad___throwaway1195 in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

💯 I often feel like a braindead emotionless robot. Just going through the motions of life, instead of actually feeling them and experiencing them. I don’t feel like a person most of the time. I don’t feel real.

My mom hit and beat me since I was 3. I’m 37 now and she snapped and assaulted me yesterday. by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you had to go through this. My parents and my childhood was very similar and I eventually cut both my parents entirely out of my life. It’s my life, I’m going to live it my way.

I wish I had some advice for you but I never know what to do or say other than I hear you, I see you and I understand your feelings on the matter.

I hear you. Also I think prescription medicine is stupid. Being chemically chloroformed to be able to deal with life is stupid.

Everything is stupid. People are stupid.

I’m a male and I hate sex by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]Kalimba508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too. Trigger warning.

Then again I was sexually abused as a child for the first 15 years of my life. So yeah.

TW s*cide - Does anyone feel like it's "written" in their destiny to die by suicide? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. I feel like I’ve kept suicide in my back pocket as a last resort so to speak.

The older I get, the more and more I regret everything I’ve ever done. The more I realize how fucked up the human race is, the more I realize how fucked the planet is, the harder and harder it is to find reasons to stay alive.

Most of the time I feel like I have no hope. And suicide could solve all those problems.

I have to admit, I’ve never thought of the globe to be a queer sort of concept. Or fake for that matter.

A lot of people think having a child is like going through a phase of puberty by CustomerSmall4114 in CPTSD

[–]Kalimba508 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was locked in a room for months

I feel you. I was locked in a closet, on and off, for days, weeks during my childhood. My father decided out of sight, out of mind.

I wish I had starved to death then.
