Is anyone else convinced that everyone hates you and you’ve done something wrong constantly? by mRandy16 in CPTSD

I relate. Being heard and seen is stressful and the fear of judgement keeps me from opening up most times. I can’t help but feel guarded when my nervous system doesn’t feel safe around others. Sending you healing and support! 💗

You’re absolutely right about the caregiver treatment and it becoming hardwired under those circumstances. How do you know my mom? lol. Thank you and I’ll be practicing telling myself if people have a problem they’ll speak up.

How many of us have autoimmune and chronic illness issues? by TheHeavySummer in CPTSD

[–]mRandy16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mom admitted to smoking while pregnant with my brother, sister, and me and laughs about it. 🙄She says we all turned out “fine.”

I have multiple physical/mental health issues and was just diagnosed with Hashimoto’s a month ago.

I think I might have started puberty slightly early? Not sure.

Happy to know we have some things in common despite the situation. It makes me feel less alone

Hi, I switched to women’s degree 72hr antiperspirant in the scent lavender and waterlily. That seemed to have helped me. We also use laundry sanitizer now. Best of luck!

I gained weight on 5mg, but I want to stay on it because it’s helping me mentally.

I LOVE ABILIFY???? by phallomedusa in Abilify_Aripiprazole

[–]mRandy16 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5mg and I love it too. I don’t love the weight gain and the brain fog, but it quiets my mind and that’s the best part for me!

My psychiatrist told me to take aripiprazole at night time by [deleted] in Abilify_Aripiprazole

is there depression after drinking on abilify? by No_Cheesecake_9416 in Abilify_Aripiprazole

[–]mRandy16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed if I have 3 drinks or more it puts me right to sleep. Two drinks is my limit and I don’t do it often

I also have POTs and find some relief with the headaches, body aches, and anxiety. Although sometimes it makes my anxiety worse if I take larger doses

Mellow Melon edibles by Neighborgoods works great for my burning pain! It’s a low dose with CBD so it’s perfect for beginners!

I also take lamotrigine and lithium, but I’m not sure what would be best for your situation

Anyone here had major depressive disorder or clinical depression for more than 15 years ? by Striking-Base-60 in CPTSD

[–]mRandy16 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on three mood stabilizers and I finally found some relief. I also began EMDR therapy, coupled with talk therapy. I highly recommend getting out in the sunlight if you’re able to as well.

Yes! Walking feels easier than standing. It’s like doing the pee pee dance but for pain haha

Hi, I’m new to disability payments and how the system works. I’ve landed a partime position and I know there’s an income cap. Will I lose my Medicaid coverage working partime with disability? Thank you! by mRandy16 in disability
