| | Notices | Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now. Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year. |  | |

| | Thanks again everyone.

Funny thing is, I'm glad it happened now and not after I moved. It would have been much worse for me if I had just moved and had to come all the way back for it. This way when I move, it really is a fresh start!!

| | Actually bec that totally makes sense to me, now that you explain it. You have everything out of the way now, as you say. Plus this might sound weird but personally if I get bad news or someone says something bad to me in my personal space, I feel like that space is somehow tainted or violated and it needs to be cleansed! So in your position I think my residence would feel yucky to me, not as safe anymore, and I'd be happy to move. I know that sounds dumb maybe but it's really strong feeling for me sometimes.
Anyways glad you are handling everything as well as you are. And I am so very glad you are moving. I think you're going to be so much happier. |

Nope, I am like that. You would not believe how many sets of furniture, beds and actual moves I have thrown out and relocated because it feels tainted due to a reminder or bad news. I'm horrible for that. Even if someone I don't know or dislike drops by my house, I will start cleaning and throwing stuff. Very bad habit. Have to learn to cleanse my memories instead of my house.
