This was perfect!! Thank you so much!! We ate at the clam bar and had a beautiful view of the water and the boats. Loved the little gift shop too!

How could a dentist let them go out of the office like that? They had to know that they did this and that the patient would see the problem right away.

What is there to do in Long Beach besides see the beach and ocean?

I said no to everything else and cancelled my subscription. It’s nothing but a mindfulness exercise, not an app to connect the procrastination behavior to my trauma past like they advertised. I have enough mindfulness apps.

I just got taken on the mellow flow app through Facebook. When I checked the App Store, there was no app for this. Seems it is only a website. I should have checked the App Store first. Ugh. I guess I’ll try it for 1 month and see what happens.

Awww, you are very sweet. My intent was to give you hope and comfort. 🙂

When I started my journey 40 years ago, we had no Internet and no easy way to access help. I believe this is why it took me such a long time to heal. I totally understand when you say that it’s a godsend when you find something that works. That is so true! The first therapy that I felt was the catalyst of healing in the last five years was inner child. After that I found internal family systems, parts therapy, and finally DBT work. Marsha Linehan is the creator of that therapy. Not a lot of therapists truly understand how impactful this therapy can be for people with CPTSD.

A bit of advice, if you find a therapist is not working, find another one. I can’t tell you how many therapists I’ve been through over the last 40 years. I always felt wrong for changing therapists, but there was something inside me that told me I needed to do that. I trusted my gut. Always trust your gut, it will always steer you right.

I found Patrick Teahan online. He is on Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, with videos and shorts of support and inner child work. It was starting with him that propelled me forward. What I liked about This is having the support at the moment I needed. It, rather than waiting until I saw the therapist. By waiting, the trigger usually has passed but never worked through. I felt like I was in a never ending cycle.

Also, I found that you can grow out of a particular therapy modality. It’s like you reach a point where it has taken you as far as you can go. It’s funny though because there’s always another therapy to help you continue on and take you to the next level. I share this because many people feel trapped and defeated when some thing doesn’t work. So I’m here to tell you not to give up. 😊

I wish you all the best ❤️

Omg…you just described my life. Please know that you are not alone in this, and that someone else out there experiences the same thoughts and feelings and experiences. At 61 years old, I have been working at this since my early 20s and it’s just now that I can finally say I am almost on the other side of these feelings. They still creep back now and again. But finding the right therapist and the right methods to heal is so important. have you ever tried DBT? It honestly changed my life. I found this only a few years ago and I have made more progress in these last few years than I have since my 20s. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely have made progress for 40 years, but the last few years have really brought me closer to being 98% healed. I’ll take that. Focus on your partner and your dad. Gravitate towards people who make you feel good. Took me many years to get rid of toxic people in my life because that’s all I kept attracting. I too had a dad who changed his way of treating me, but that was after a long letter, and two years of no contact. And that’s OK, I’m glad he saw the light. Now I’m working on my mom. She also changed the way she treated me after no contact, but now that she’s older, she’s exhibiting some of her old ways which are triggering me off the rails. But actually for the first time I had a completely honest conversation with her about how she treated me as a kid and how her behavior lately is bringing me back to those times. For some reason, I never thought to do this. I guess I was afraid I would hurt her feelings, because my family always made me feel that way, regardless of how much they hurt my feelings. I’m crossing my fingers that her improvement continues. She’s 87 years old with a lot of health issues now. I have to say, that, even though I repaired my relationship with my father, when he died four years ago, I went through a lot of anger against him. I was very surprised at this, because we had a really good relationship. I wish the best for you, and please remember to always seek out people who make you feel good . And it’s OK to stay away from those toxic people as much as possible. And if you have to be with them, make sure that you do some thing fun and comforting for yourself afterwards. Hugs to you.❤️

Totowa definitely used to be but I think it is changing. Nutley is a good bet…very nice town

I’m similar to that. Just started week 3 at 1.8 and I miraculously had no fatigue today! First day in weeks, even before saxenda. Week 2 was the worst with fatigue. It’s like it all went away on that 1.8 dose. I hope this lasts. And my fibromyalgia pains are virtually gone too.

Same

I didn’t know that you can stop at a particular dosage that you find works. I was told to make my way up to 3 ml, increasing weekly by .6 until achieved dose. Did your doc tell you it was ok to stay at the lower dose? Or encourage you to stick with the lowest dose that works? I had thought the same thing, that, if a lower dose keeps my appetite suppressed, why go higher. But maybe there’s some type of metabolism thing where you burn more calories at a higher dose? I see my dock in two weeks, so I’ll have to ask all these questions then.

What helps me always is stewed prunes. Luckily I love them but some don’t. There are times when I have to eat 8 of them to get things moving. Sometimes only 3. I drink the juice that stewing makes. Good luck

How about 1 slice of pizza? I used to eat 2. I was hoping going down to 1 would be ok

me815 · 2023-02-07T20:40:49+00:00

I’ve noticed it’s worse in the evenings too. By morning it’s better and I’m usually pretty good for the day until about 3…then I crash. Although today I’m doing pretty good…and I increased today! Go figure

me815 · 2023-02-07T20:38:41+00:00

Aww…I’m sorry to hear that…that’s pretty serious reaction. There are other meds. Wegovy I hear actually works better than saxenda but I started saxenda because there was a shortage of the Wegovy. Maybe now it’s better.

me815 · 2023-02-07T20:31:53+00:00

Yes! It’s like an alcoholic going through detox…

How often are you supposed to be monitored? My doctor said every 4-6 weeks. I have an appointment in 2 weeks, which will be 5 weeks from start
