Find support with others who have gone through a traumatic experience. Whether you have chronic or acute PTSD, we are here for you.
Thanks for your support this week with my struggle with my Chronic Kidney Disease symptoms from the damage a bad psychiatrist did in giving me too much Seroquel for my PTSD nightmares. Today, Friday, was a good day like last Sunday was. I appreciate your help in getting me through the days of not being able to walk due to fainting and neuropathy pain in between. I went on a lovely walk with my dog today at sunset, really grateful to be out and about. Your support helped make it happen. I'll remember that when the next CKD symptoms onset comes on. Your support can help me get through to another good day.

Jay's podcasts are really good. I watch them on YouTube for free. Today, I watched his video about motivation. In fact, I've been watching a few videos on this subject. Jay gave us an assignment to complete the following sentence: I am stuck because? I don't describe myself as stuck, but to finish the sentence, I would say that I am stuck because I am tired. When I have energy, I do...

Does anyone here have a comfort item you carry with you when you go out? For example this is my doll, Annie, and I've recently been bringing her with me when I run errrands flor have an appointment. Holding her comforts me. I've bought her clothes, crocheted for her, I recently bought a personalized blanket with her name on it. Just wondering if anyone else has a comfort item.

Fortunately, it was only against the wall, not against anything protruding from the wall. Back in 2020 I fainted at home and hit a metal water pipe on the way down, which gave me a bloody gash in my forehead. This time it was a clean fall to the wall so thank goodness I'm a hard-headed guy and no further harm came to me.
I did go without posting here for a day, which is something rare for me since I first came here in 2012. I figured, though, that it was a Sunday evening and things are fairly quiet here on Daily Strength on the weekend. I guessed that it'd be ok to go a day without coming here and that things would hold until today Monday.
Hope everybody's ok. For a fainting episode this was an ok one for me. I even got out to walk with the dog today Monday. I'm not feeling faint nor having a lot of Chronic Kidney Disease neuropathy pain from the damage done by that PTSD meds overdose by a doc years ago.
Be well, y'all.
