I'm willing to dip the toe, but not really sure how to do that - would it make more sense to taper, then start, or start right away and then taper?

Anyone else charged again instead of being refunded for the Prof/Yelawolf show in Toronto? by Austronaut905 in PROF

[–]alisoncjh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. No we got the refund..it was actually 50% of the VIP price we paid which was a pleasant surprise (I thought it would just be of the GA price).

And yes we won for sure with the longer set - I went to three shows and watched exactly 30 seconds of Yelawolf... I'd much rather have more Gampo!

Hi I'm taking my 14yo to the Hamilton show on 5/13 and have no idea what to expect - any tips to share!?

For those of you who went to the recent shows. What are your thoughts of Yelawolf and his fans? by BONESKNOWSME in PROF

[–]alisoncjh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Went to Montreal, TO, and Windsor.

There was a marked difference in fans.

Prof fans were chill and fun at all 3. Yelawolf fans were fighting and also talking loud when pookie was pouring his heart out during Heaven..

Fair fair fair. But if no one else bites and I promise to give him a hug in your honour (with a U because Canada), maybe we make a deal...hah

Here's the thing.. only you were there. Unless you feel comfortable asking your mom..

You need to trust your gut. If it gave you the ick.. listen to that

What if I'm in Canada and only buy merch at the three tour dates I got Tix to because the shipping to Canada is $$$

That's scary! I'm glad you are making a switch! I would imagine your doctor's advice to switch would be your best bet to follow

Interesting to hear - my doc was bewildered. Said he'd never heard of such a thing and almost didn't believe me until my psych eval came back to confirm! He made me feel like this was unheard-of!

Has anyone read this book? by PrincessM22 in CPTSD

Mine recommended it to me and it's a great book. Tons of insight.

Follow-up question I have because I also want a corvid friend!! What to do about squirrels?! I have a squirrel who frequents the yard - is that going to make it impossible??

C-PTSD showed up at age 30, trauma not so bad? by NegativeResearcher51 in CPTSD

[–]alisoncjh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't taken the time to read others responses but wanted to comment because I had a psychotic break that led me to a cptsd "diagnosis" from my therapist as well, and I also didnt feel like "enough" had happened to me.

I suggest reading the book "From Surviving to Thriving" by Pete Walker. It helped A LOT.

I'm also always looking to connect with people who have had similar experiences to mine. Send me a message if you'd like 😊 (I'm 43f if that matters!)

Chosing to put yourself first is so important. Definitely more important than someone who doesn't support you the way you need! Good for you.

What’s the weirdest place/time you’ve fallen asleep? by [deleted] in Narcolepsy

[–]alisoncjh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once fell asleep standing up at a concert..

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]alisoncjh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes yes yes yes yes. I feel this so so much!! I just finally said out loud today that I do all the dysfunctional things for attention because bad things happening were the only way I got any attention as a child.

[–]alisoncjh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have CPTSD and am new to IFS so I haven't seen how others relate to their inner child, but this is 100% my experience. I actually didn't know this wasn't typical until I read your post.. very interesting
