Close Self-Injury
Treatments
- Psychotherapy Too Soon to Tell
- i am in cognitive therapy at this time and attending another therapist for EMDR for PTSD. I have an appointment with a DBT therapist next week.
- Rubber Bands Not Working
- the pain was just not intense enough.
- Squeezing Ice Somewhat Helpful
- my therapist had me try this in his office when i pulled out the razor blade. did get me thru just a little messy and inconvenient at times.
Close Personality Disorders
Type: Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD)Diagnosed with BPD and PTSD. I am in therapy with two therapist 2x's a week. My main therapist is resigning the 18th of May and moving out of state. I am having a real hard time with this and embarrassed because everyone thinks I'm being childish. I have just never had anyone that I can totally trust like him. I see a DBT specialist next week for intake and eval. to complete the DBT program. Reading this I am a little on edge, don't know what to expect.
Treatments
Open Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
I was diagnosed with PTSD and I have been in therapy with two therapist for 6 months now. I am currently participating in EMDR.
Treatments
- Inderal Somewhat Helpful
- Helps somewhat with the flashbacks. Lowers my pulse rate to 52 and I become light headed.
- Psychotherapy Working / Worked
- It is helping but the EMDR can cause some stress.
- Zoloft Not Working
- Was on this 10 years ago for treatment with my PTSD. Suicidal thoughts increased. OD on 7100 mg. of Zoloft.
Open Sexual Abuse
I was sexual molested by my great uncle on a farm one summer where I was sent to stay. Most of the events happened in the corn field. I have kept running from treatment each time I get in a suicidal crisis and it's time to get some support and take care of the hurt.
Treatments
- Art Working / Worked
- Did quite a bit of this the 3x's I was inpatient. The 5 weeks were very good in the art department. I have invested in supplies to have available at home.
- Talking Somewhat Helpful
- I have a hard time discussing even the fact that it happened. I have been able to write about it and let my therapist read it then we process but I still can't go deep into it.
- EMDR Working / Worked
- Through EMDR I am desensitizing some of the events so that I can work on there.
Open Anger Management
I have been working on hostility with my therapist. Seems that I have really been having a hard time keeping my tongue in cheek and flying off the handle. I have been going into such rages and fear for my family around me.
