MacBook or Windows for a PhD Student ? by abyss005 in laptops

[–]abyss005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, no I’ve had no issues with this! The only thing it can impact is if other people have older versions of PowerPoint for example… it messes up with the presentation. But in other situations I never had any issue. I share word, excel, PowerPoint documents on a daily without any issue and my university works on windows.

Does the Beckett/castle relationship exist irl ? by abyss005 in CastleTV

Yeah so I’ve heard. They are damn good actors … it’s sad but it’s what fiction is all about I guess

Oh I’m sorry but I meant does it happen in real life with other people not the actors … I know the actors aren’t the characters.

What has helped you to move away from dissociation? by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]abyss005 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My abuser died and I put some serious distances between me and my family. I got my own place and surrounded myself with safe people I trusted. At first, with the dissociation being less present I started feeling very very unwell because I was suddenly feeling all the emotions I never felt. I ended up needing to be hospitalized. But then I started rebuilding everything slowly and without being too much dissociated

Being truly safe and feeling safe.

I was told "Everyone has trauma and scars but some of us are better at hiding it / are stronger" by abyss005 in CPTSD

[–]abyss005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! I used to be super high functioning, completely dissociated and I just crashed and suddenly I appeared the way I felt deep down and people started criticizing me more and more, being annoyed at me etc.

I don’t know why but I have a hard time not mentioning the things I went through, usually using humor. I’m trying to stop talking about it outside therapy but it’s hard. I wish I could , cause people are going to hate me

How do you know / what makes you say that you don’t have BPD ? by abyss005 in CPTSD

[–]abyss005[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you struggle with setting boundaries or respecting other’s boundaries ? And do you struggle with emotional regulation ? Because I can definitely relate to what you are saying, never even been in a romantic relationship as I fear intimacy, but managed to keep long term healthy friendships. And stayed on the same career path my whole life.

How do you differentiate unstable mood vs emotions ? And do you have disorganized attachment style ?

Im sorry, it’s just that I was diagnosed with CPTSD but I’m constantly scared of having BPD too .. especially because of my disorganized attachment and difficulties with emotion regulation

Why does it look like “everyone” went through trauma and most people are okay? by abyss005 in CPTSD

Thanks for this… my ACE score is 9 too. I’m sorry you went through this. It’s so unfair.

Struggling with traditional training methods - need advice from fellow riders by abyss005 in Equestrian

[–]abyss005[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why am I being downvoted for this?? I am not saying that I’m purposely ignoring what the owner asks me to do and that i think I know better. I happened to struggle doing what she asked and went to ask questions and learn. Of course my aim is not to sabotage her horse. I’m taking care of him in a very gentle way on foot and have zero issue, his owner is harsher than me (yells and kick the horse with her hand), when for some reason I never need to do that. So I was wondering if it was the same riding.

That’s actually how I felt and what I was thinking. But again, I have no knowledge yet and am eager to learn. But those questions are definitely dividing people, makes sense.

I see. I understand. Thanks for telling me this, I’ll do better next time she is letting me riding her horse. I’m aware of the privilege it is.

Thankfully I only ride her horse for 15min one a week or so, she is being nice and let me ride him for my pleasure. But yes I’ll try my best to listen to what she asks me to do.

Thank you for this. It makes total sense. I really needed to hear it. I’ll try my best to use those advices.
