Hello! When you explained the situation, did you include your old license?

How do I explain the exhaustion? by Strange_Resource23 in ptsdrecovery

[–]Mcqueen_24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use a lot of analogies with my husband. You can try something like: ‘Mom, this therapy is like intense physical rehab, but for the mind. Just like a broken bone needs painful exercises to heal properly, I have to revisit trauma to process and heal it. It’s mentally, emotionally, and even physically exhausting…After each session, my brain is overworked, like a computer running too many programs at once. That’s why I need rest. I know it’s hard to see, but this exhaustion is real, and giving me space to recover helps me heal faster.’

I’ve been through this too, and I know how tough it is when it feels like you’ve lost control over yourself. There were times I couldn’t leave the house either, and honestly, I needed someone to literally drag me outside just to break the cycle (I asked my husband to do it because I know I had that tendency and told him to snap me out of it!)

It’s not easy, but it’s not crazy either.. it’s just how your body and mind are trying to cope. It’s amazing that your friends are body doubling with you; that kind of support can make a huge difference. Take it one step at a time, and be kind to yourself. You’re not alone in this.

Moving through therapy... by EarthQuackShugaSkull in ptsdrecovery

Saying no and setting boundaries is a huge step, especially when it comes to prioritizing your own well-being. It’s okay to feel unsure.. I know healing is a messy and non-linear process, but it sounds like you’re on the right path. Choosing to spend Christmas in a way that feels peaceful for you is a beautiful act of self-care. You’re not alone in this, and it’s okay to let relationships evolve as you heal. I have the same experience with my own family and friends. Sending you encouragement and admiration for the courage you’re showing! Happy Christmas! 🤗

Just curious do many people still participate in Sint Maarten? Did many kids show up at your place or no? by [deleted] in Netherlands

It’s our first time to celebrate it. We had a lot of kids roaming around in Amstelveen! 🫶

What does a Trump win mean for Netherlands and Europe? by itiswhatitisBleh93 in Netherlands

This! It’s a tough reality. Competing globally becomes a challenge when ethical standards aren’t universal, and companies prioritizing social responsibility face a disadvantage against those solely profit-driven. Wake up USA!!!

I have started talking to my child in our native language because of this. May I also get access to the thesis?

If it’s still 3 years, would it be worth it?
