- I am realizing that, even though I can be an extremely outgoing person, I am pretty phobic of actual relationships (iNcluding friendships). So even though I'm capable of having a great time, I isolate; or even if I go out and have fun, I avoid...
- Do others have trouble with nightmares and transitioning from waking up from nightmares, out of that profound anxiety state, to rest of day? I have nightmares every night. The biggest problem in my life is the morning, after waking up. The nightmare...
- Seems like I reply to soo many people's posts on this site, but few people reply to my posts, even though I'm in great need of support. That hurts :/ Maybe I need to find other avenues of support, I just seem to have a hard time doing that. Any...
- Don't know of many! Seems like hard work to figure out. Biggest problem/barrier keeping me in loneliness.
- Too traumatized/depressed to do what could save me from the life-threatening dangers in my life. Have had a lot of recent misfortune. And thus society is REALLY fucked up. My family doesn't understand, they just make it worse, mostly. Don't have the...
- How is it not enough to have a stalking, harassing, life-threatening abusive parent? The other parent has to yell at you every time you try to express what is happening? I don't know, sometimes they are supportive/helpful. That makes it hurt so much...
- Hi. I am in a unique potentially life-threatening abusive situation. It involves a parent, I'm in my early-mid twenties; so this is new to me, and I don't know very much at all about handling these kinds of things.The story is kind of unique:...
- I am wondering what people's experiences with this are, in regards to PTSD. I had a really severe trauma several months ago. Since then, being in the area it occurred had bothered me quite a bit, but I sort of ignored (though I didn't have to go...
- Hi, I am greatly improved. I feel ready to work (plus I really need to). I did some work (a semi-regular sub job) for a while, and found it mostly made me feel better and helped a lot. I am still nervous however about jumping on the treadmill of the...
- This is where I'm at now. Fortunately, I am happy to report, my addiction has improved substantially since I wrote last. :) I do not spend most of my time on it, I am largely functioning now. However, I still waste SO many precious and Important...
- Hi. I am in the process of recovery from a very intense very unique kind of sexual abuse. (This process of awareness and recovery is fairly new for me.) I feel like a disgusting, utterly demeaned little girl. I often feel like my body is really...
- I feel like such a ridiculous, miserable, disgusting failure. I am fairly new at my awareness of an attempt to struggle free from addiction, but I have not gotten very far. My attempts have resulted in pathetic relapse (I've barely had any...
- I grew up in a cult and so had to leave all my friendships behind when I left (it was small, and I didn't have that many). That was a year or so ago. I'm friendly, social, and can be very outgoing. I do have bad social anxiety sometimes though...it...
- I have had two close brushes with death in the past couple years, both fairly sudden, unexpected, shocking, and traumatic. I know life can be wonderful. But I am literally afraid to get out of bed and try again. It feels easier to kill myself, since...
- I have had depression for years. In the past two years (for the first time ever) I have had two close brushes with death. I am in danger again, back with my family (one of my parents got very dangerously violent/threatening with me last time I was...
