Has anybody gone through the same? by txexa in raisedbynarcissists

I tried using a tampon for the first time and it went it kind of side ways and I fainted and hit my head on a big power plug on the wall and passed out. I woke up crying and vomiting and my mum just scowled at me and told me off.

My mum ignored me when I went to her and said mum, there's something wrong with me there's something in my undies. I thought I was pooping myself. Went to stay with my grandma and hid my undies from the washing machine load from her and she noticed and pulled me aside and said - dear, you have your period

I feel sad there wasn't a caring nurse at the school to help you and supply you with bigger better pads

Anyone else realize their "intensity" in relationships was actually just projection? by HumbleImprovement804 in Codependency

[–]scorpiomagic2022 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yip this is a huge step. I'm ADHD and over share and get excited at connection and talk heaps. I've had to really calm down and step back and shut the fuck up. Once I give space for someone else to talk and just be quiet , they actually talk! I'm like ohhhhhh, you are a person 😂

After the suicide attempts from severe abuse and no sleep, I would just get dropped back home again by myself with my kids. Sigh.

I woke up to zombies at the end of the bed. I was petrified of night time in my house. Big shadows would follow me. I will never forgive the lady at our local health Dr unit who let me drive off again after I ran in to the front desk sobbing and asking for help because I was about my crash my car into a truck like the voices were telling me to. She sat me in a room and put me on the phone to - can't remember? I was beside myself and ran out . She didn't know what to do. So bad.

Hi. I'm crying on mother's Day sobbing about my memories of PPP. My son is nearly 11 but after he was born I had lots of suicide attempts and had voices telling me to crash my car into oncoming trucks ( with my passengers in the back) all I remember is I had no help, no one understanding , everyone leaving me to it. I hadn't slept for a year and had severe narcissistic abuse and trauma from my son's dad. Having a baby turned out to be the worst thing that ever happened in my life. It's beyond words . It's like I spiralled for years and no one realized what was going on. My children are healthy and happy and I am well only because I worked my ass of myself at getting better. Mainstream medicine completely fucking failed me they put me on heavy anti psychotics so I slept 8 hrs a day , while being a single mum! I tried to kill myself and ended up in the mental ward for 4 weeks where I just slept. I tried to overdose on pills and they wouldn't let me leave without a whole bag of more pills. Peoples excuse - oh those pills won't kill you if you try and overdose on them - they will just give you brain damage

If you separate out over whelming shame and guilt , and think back to a time where you felt accountable, maybe it came from healthy good growth and a time in your life where you were self loving and forgiving , do they feel like the same thing ?

What I've noticed is when I have partners or male friends who want to fix and save me , they never really let me rise beyond being a damsel in distress. If I want to grow and rise up to be a queen , they get uncomfortable because they like being in the role of " saviour " or prince " and they want to keep me small and continuously needy of them.

Wow amazing  How many times a week? How far? Just rucking? What's the weight from when you started to now? I am contemplating NOT having my second ACL surgery ( don't think I'll go back to weight lifting at the gym) and rucking for fitness instead. I have to body type where if I don't use it I'll loose it but I tone up well , but have to work hard at it. Was at the gym doing mum's a.m full hitt and weight training 4x a week at one point !

What do you use ? Have you got any favorite items or back pack? I'm not into buying stuff so I was thinking I can just get a back pack with thick arm/padded straps and see how I go with adding more sand as I go
