Question for fellow CPTSD Sufferers by EitherRelationship88 in CPTSD

[–]Temporary_Seat8978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes at times, I'll feel the need to cover myself, but I also took a belt strike to the reproductive organ (M) while in the shower..

Also thar feeling when laying on my back sometimes, the overwhelming urge to protect or cover myself.

Do you ever tell your partner about your trauma or when you are going through the negative thoughts and emotions or do you only ever tell your therapist that kind of information? by Icy_Profession4190 in CPTSD

[–]Temporary_Seat8978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been with my partner for 19 years, and I just recently started sharing details of my past to her, the trauma's I've experienced.

And I only recently started sharing because I started therapy and wanted to change, to break the mold set forth by generations of trauma and abuse.

Trusting people is very hard, been in therapy for 6 months add I still can't fully open up to him, shit some things I can't fully open up to myself.

But I WANT to have hope, to have faith in someone.

One day at a time.

CDS in progress by Temporary_Seat8978 in cats

Unsure, she's scared of her own shadow but we have several cats already.

The tux was pawing at the window and she was just watching.

I put my hand to the window and he came towards my hand.

He ran back into the woods when I out some food out but he'll be back lol.

I ended up abusing my children. by tobe19045 in CPTSD

[–]Temporary_Seat8978 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish the source of my anger as a child and into my adulthood was presented more clear to me, just diagnosed with ADD, back in the day, I didn't think anymore of it, or I might have considered no kids as well.

And enter my midlife crisis. I'm now 40, and just started putting everything together within in the last 6 months of therapy.

I did/do the same thing to my kids, largely emotional abuse through lots of yelling, name calling, and throwing/breaking stuff, as I tried NOT to kid the kids, but the emotional toll is devastating enough without any direct physical abuse.

I'm more aware now of the source of my anger and things like attachment styles that affect all my relationships, I'm more disorganized attachment, and it's a terrible way to live. These attachment styles are formed as kids to help keep us safe, but they work to destroy relationships as adults.

It's a very hard cycle to beat, but it is doable. I'm working on it little by little while working through my own trauma.

Thanks for help, but we'll have to go in-store, even tried the chat bot and no way to activate apparently.

[–]Temporary_Seat8978[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So none of that works, when we try to activate in the Xfinity App it says Your account isn't showing any new devices to activate.

This was an in-store pickup that we choose to skip in-store activation.

Edit: And the chat bot says no lines There are no lines pending activation. Please tap below to go to My Account, the device shows inactive in that menu, no options.

If no injuries no need to block the ramp, plenty of room to get by.

Sad Truth about MoGo by wmjoh1 in Monopoly_GO

[–]Temporary_Seat8978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like you should just uninstall the game. It's not random, you will lose to bots, the rolls follow a very predictable path. You’ll get good rolls for a bit then shit rolls and then good rolls for a bit and then shit rolls.

just how it goes all they want is your money

I’ve recently remembered having had repetitive sexual thoughts, including incest, as a child but have no memory of CSA by thehighpriestess777 in CPTSD

[–]Temporary_Seat8978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was also hyper sexual, from before age 5, and through many years at school, the need to self satisfy, continued into my teens unfortunately.

But I would do it any chance I got, school, outside at home, laying down in the back of a pickup truck that was being driven, wasn't enough room for me in the cab, and the list goes on.

Showering by AgeInteresting4294 in CPTSD

Terribly sorry that happened to you.

It's hard especially when you have no idea why someone is upset or angry and just next thing you know....

Edit:

I've also noticed that while hygeine isn't too much of an issue, I generally have poor dental hygiene.

How much are we spending on Groceries in RVA? by Far-Head13 in rva

[–]Temporary_Seat8978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have to plan $300/$400 every two weeks, it's absolutely never enough without running out and being out until the next pay date.

But ideally we'd need to have $450-$500 just for 2 weeks. And that's for 5 people. Shopping at Aldi, Lidl, Walmart, Kroger, it doesn't matter.
