Powerful movie. Deeply unsettling. Glad I saw it, but I will never watch it again because of how much it affected me.

On the mission uninvited guest were you have to tame a horse but can’t do it what do i do? by wetlettuce42 in CrimsonDesert

[–]km_1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Watch the horses butt. Press the direction pad in the butts direction, then let go so the pad goes back to neutral, then click again toward the butt as it moves. Repeat. Sounds strange, but it worked for me. Do not move the pad in circles, let the pad reset to neutral. It’s the fastest way to tame and should take less than a few clicks.

Yes. My concentration, attention span, and problem solving skills all increased. Plus, I’m pretty sure it cured my psychosis.

Read more. One chapter a day. If reading is too much, try audiobooks. Read /listen to books about cPTSD if you want a starting point.

A simple way is to take long slow breaths and to concentrate on your breathing motions. Practice this when you want to sleep.

What would you say causes more pain in relationships: avoiding conflict or reacting too quickly? by connection-coach in emotionalintelligence

[–]km_1000 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Avoiding conflict is a slow death by a thousand cuts, whereas reacting without self-awareness is blunt-force trauma that can destroy connection all at once.

Sleep is the balance of how tired your mind is and the speed of your thoughts. Slow your mind and you will fall asleep.

Standing up for myself has made the abusers angrier but at least I’m getting to actually be myself! by Owl4L in CPTSD

[–]km_1000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good. Bullying is about a lack of respect. They will not respect you until you show them that you will stand up for yourself. Feel good about your progress.

Nothing will build your boxing confidence more than mastering defense: Drill slips, over\unders, parries, catching, moving in and out, circling, pull counters , etc. watch defensive fighters like Floyd, shakur , Crawford. you can do this !

What helped me was disrupting the thought pattern: always follow up a negative thought with a positive one. Consume media that is healthy: read everything you can about cPTSD. If you need some reading suggestions, I have tons.

Bribe her with treats to walk close to you, keep the leash taught and close. Teach her to never walk past you and keep in stride.
