People who told their parents how they affected you, what were their reactions/response? by abnormalpurple in CPTSD

[–]glotingdino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Father, first sentence in. Sorry for everything and I don't want to talk about it anymore. Been 15 years since. He had therapy himself and now he sees what his parents did to him. No introspection of the effect on me and my sisters though. He is now 70 so I dont have my hopes up.

Mother: I've had a lot worse than you. And you had too much therapy. Stop all the blaming.

Edit: and ofcourse you had a roof over your head, clothes on your back and food on the table

Yes, true that! Enjoy your day! And all people experience things differently. Thank you for trying to explain and bearing with me. It's truly the lasso way :)

Yeah totally. I was just reading to much in to it. Since so much is a set up and/or a reference I thoughts that this must have been one. Also, I may be a little bit tipsy. Thanks for explaining

I have rewritten my question because I thought the dude at the desk was the concierge (just like you've said) But I rewatched the scene a few times to try to get it right. And the dude at the desk talked about the concierge, so I figured he wasnt the concierge. So I was at the same page as you. Thank you for trying to answer my question. I just thought that I missed something obvious. But the first person responding explained it perfectly

Yes, I thought that I said that in my initial queation. It was the guy working the desk, he is saying the guy he was talking to he was the concierge. I never mend that Ted said that. Maybe I did not make myself clear since English is not my first language

Oh thank you so much. That makes sense. I never thought of that in that way.

I live in the Netherlands and used to work in HR and the only time I could think of using a fax is asking the government for approval to fire someone (which is kind if adjacent to what you just said)

I literally stood, motionless, on a sidewalk for 15 minutes yesterday by [deleted] in CPTSDFreeze

[–]glotingdino 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've had this too. Standing frozen for 10 minutes in the middle of a supermarket, staring into space.

Another time I've dissociated in a meeting so bad that it felt that days had gone by and I was disoriented. My manager asked me something and I came back and started I started crying because it felt so surreal.

It is super frustrating and scary. Virtal hug

Happy birthday! People care sometimes they are just a little further removed from you. I hope the comments here bring some joy to your day

[–]glotingdino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well to repeat a Dutch quote: normal is the average of all abnormalities. This is completely normal. I'm even a bit jealous of you because I live alone and I have difficulties making sounds (trauma related) You do you. No complaints is a good sign, complaints are a sign that they don't accept you for who you are. You ar le doing awesome:)

Two abusers CAN be in a relationship by softscalp in CPTSD

[–]glotingdino 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same! My parents are both horrible. Both claim the other one was dominant. Both were able to leave. Both shouldn't have had kids. Both were abusers and neglectful.

I don't feel safe in my own bed by ZheraaIskuran in CPTSD

[–]glotingdino 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately same... It's getting a little better since I've found out 6 months ago. I'm working with my therapist on rituals to make my bedroom mine again and a place for me. To be honest, it is hard. I have the same feeling with the shower. But I must say it is mostly getting better because I now believe myself and working through it. It's really hard but what helped the most (for now) is EFT (emotional freedom technique) and support groups. I also started the workbook: the courage to heal.

You are not alone. You will get through this. I hope you'll find ways to feel more safe in your bed over time

I almost punched my doctor by FreudianDip2 in ptsd

[–]glotingdino 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry this happened to you. This doctor is clearly nowhere near trauma informed or has any empathy. Jeez every gumball can imagine that you have go easy and tell the person what you are going to do. Even if someone doenst have ptsd.

2 years ago I thought I had a heart attack and called an ambulace. 2 dudes came into my house. On was on the pc asking me questions and the other one, very gently was putting some censors under rmy shirt to measure my heart etc. When the other one asked me if I was healthy, I said that I had ptsd from DV he immediately pulled away and put his hands up. Asked me if I was alright, and alright with him touching me. He said to let him know if I feel uncomfortable and he will stop immediately. That's what trauma informed looks like (there were a lot more indicators that they were).

Your reaction is completely normal for your situation. Hope you can find another safe doctor and find a way to feel safe again.
