- I never realized how almost utterly alone I am and feel. Almost like I'm in a giant black box that resembles outer space, or an emotional coffin.
- Almost died from an unexpected, sudden trauma (that technically could happen again anywhere). Also in potentially life-threatening abusive situation with a family member with bizarre, unpredictable behavior that I had sort of gotten away from but...
- Any information /input anyone has about this would be MUCH appreciated. I am totally caught in this: re-enacting trauma, feeling a desperate fake (self-sacrificing) cheerfulness (based on abusive relationship from past). Mistreating myself and...
- Any information /input anyone has about this would be MUCH appreciated. I am totally caught in this: re-enacting trauma, feeling a desperate fake (self-sacrificing) cheerfulness (based on abusive relationships from the past). And accepting, in this...
- I am a bit new to the world of (romantic) relationships. I'm starting to feel a bit worried that what I have always pictured my ideal of someone I would in love with and like want to be with forever potentially, is not what would actually make me...
- Do people have basic advice/tips they can offer for coping with ptsd on a day-to-day basis? Like flashbacks/memories and the fear/anguish/grieving/sobbing that accompanies? (Like especially while you're out/at work/or trying to accomplish something...
- Hi. I eventually ran out of refills for my medication and had to make another appointment with the dermatologist. By then my dermatologist wasn't working there anymore lol (there are a lot at this place), so I have a new one. She prescribed Aczone,...

- I'm really struggling intensely with addiction. I know the importance of working program and plan to get back into it (got out for a while). However, I am wondering what ALL advice I can possibly get about battling addiction ON MY OWN. I feel like I...
- It's been SO beautiful the past several days, and I've been too afraid recently to go outside. :(Horrribly depressing. I feel like I'm in a jail
- Is it just me, or are popular (by nature unconventional) forms of sex demeaning to women? To me, in many ways, it practically seems like that's their purpose. I am to new figuring all that out though, so I'd appreciate people's input/perspectives....
- I had a hard time with the subject title..What I meant by bullies, in this case, is people who intimidate (I'm talking about people other than "the" original abuser/family member/partner), or even do things that are emotionally abusive, intrusive,...
- Hi. I am almost brand new to talking about, acknowledging, and trying to work through my lifelong sexual abuse since childhood. So I'm feeling a bit stunned, numbed, and overwhelmed right now. The main feeling/thought I have tapped into that is SO...
- Depression, exhaustion, difficulty concentrating, lack of will to live. :/ Worst thing is it's almost impossible for me to imagine feeling safe. I can't figure out what my life should look like! I barely have the slightest clue what I want it to...
- I am trying to leave a dangerously abusive situation. It is amazing how much years of living with an abusive relationship takes a toll on you. I feel terrible about myself. There's so much anguish in that. I have to act like a demeaned, little girl...
