hey sweetie. listen, i'm in a simliar boat as you and hear is what i've been hearing: trauma is super hard and things like flshbacks are real- so that you have to go out of your way to fight and improve your whole condition. maybe i'll look up online tips and techniques for what to do when you have a flashback and get to everyone. hang in there, you are precious, everyone wants to see you hang around and turn into something great...let me if you need anything....r

i just wanted to say, i know how you feel. i close my eyes and see the guys who raped me too. i have nightmares about it. and im just now going through all of this. but stay strong and reach out to someone that you know in you heart that you can trust. i have faith that things will get better, even if it doesnt seem like it right now.

I get that too, it does not help when you are married. I am recieving cognitive therapy through my psych dr. I am hoping to find new ways of coping....Hang in there, you can get support!

    A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

    I have my maxed amount of epidural shots of my cervical DDD....(and no one cares about my lumbar DDD)..... I've done physical therapy, muscle relaxers, Amitriptyline, Nortryptiline, desipramine.....narcotics... So I decided to go to a spine specialist and they have me on Gabapentin. Its been two weeks and it did nothing for my lumbar ever... but it did seem to help my cervical and arm/hand pain...
