- For me triggers pretty much dominate my life. Everything and everyone are pretty much triggers for me to the point that I really can't do anything or go anywhere without having to cope with it in some way. Well, this evening I was blessed with a...
- I missed my chance to respond to Beachside's post about strengths and weaknesses so I thought I'd make my own post about it and hope that she and others see it. I like her posts very much as they bring us together for our common cause of recovery...
- A lot of my PTSD is about feeling trapped, even around people who I know are safe people. Tonight I kind of wigged out on my husband and only later did I realize that what was really bothering me was that one of my sisters was talking to me about...
- I know that the boards have been divided and that this is probably not the right board for posting about my son, but I don't remember where the new board is, so..... Right before school started I posted about aspergers and bullying. Well, Josh has...
- There is an old post right now on the crisis board that says "planning a suicide by gun?" The post is from 3/08 but the most recent post is from a little while ago from someone who just joined today who calls himself "Thegeneral1234" I don't know...
- Hey everyone- Just found a meeting in my town tommorow morning at 10:00 a.m. I just told my husband that I want to go and that I'll try to go by myself but if I can't do it alone (social phobia) then he said he could probably go with me. I...
- Looks like we're going out to dinner here in a little while and my first reaction was the just give up and not even try to escape the situation without over-eating. But then I though, well wait a minute....I could tell my son I need the computer...
- This is my first time to this site although I spend a lot of time on the depression DS site. I'm 47 and have had PTSD for about twenty years. The abuse I went through was so horrible that everything in my environment including my 13 year old son,...
- Hi everyone- I am new here for the first time tonight and to tell you the truth I really don't believe I can do this, even with help and support and counseling and OA meetings. Sorry to sound so negative but I have been avoiding this board as I...
- A lot of us parents of aspie kids are really desparate to help our kids when it comes to bullying and teasing from kids at our schools. My son is now at a private Christian school and yet he is STILL being bullied and teased and still the teachers...
- Hi everyone- I am at the point where I am wondering if it would be better if my son went back to live with his grandmother again. I have tried for the past six years to care for him and no matter how hard I try and no matter how many prayers I...
- Please pray for my 13 year old son Josh. He is an aspie child with only one friend and this friend has been out of town for the past three weeks.I had no idea how sad Josh was until he broke down in tears yesterday and said he felt like killing...
- I don't know why this is so hard to talk about , but about a week ago I lost a friend who I had met here at DS. Apparently I said something that she construed as being really awful when in fact I didn't mean it at all the way she took it. I...
- I guess this isn't exactly a major depression issue and yet I can't help but think that getting support for "smaller" issues can also help my overall state of mind. Yesterday I was at the library with my 13 year old son who just completed 6th...
- As a mom of a 13 year old aspie I find that I struggle to accept my son for who he is and to accept his limits. I think I get caught up with the feeling that it's not okay for him to just be who he is and that I need to do something about the...
