| | 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. |  | |

Morgan, under Settings & Options you actually go under Edit Options, then scroll down to Thread Display options and there is a box you can tick to Show Avatars. |

Nicolette, I've tried to respond here a few times, and though I learned alot from what I had written, I didn't post it bc it all seemed to deep, leaving me feeling uncomfortable with posting it, seeing that others all could respond with a few sentences.
So, having thought much about my thinking behind my avatar change, what I came up with, short and simple, is that I'd like to have an avatar that I can identify with, but that is unique to me. Also, lately I've needed to call upon a source of strength which lies within me; And, one with some shared values with Spidey, and so I figured.....I'll go with Spidey-girl for now. So Spidey really represents to me many things; I guess some of which are: undying strength, independence, protection of self and others & justice.
So, I haven't changed none, I've simply decided to accept and own more, and if selecting an avatar (lol) prompts me to some more action and helps get this process on its way, .....then that's it.
Who would've ever thought that a thread and question posed on avatar changes would've got me thinking and responding so deeply, but it has.
Take care, Nicolette.
Hope  |

Hope, if I was to confess, it was your avatar change which caused me to start this thread! | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
