| | 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. |  | |

Today was a really great day. Not that I did much of anything. But yesterday I found a job. Not a great job or the one that I wanted but it will pay the rent and keep the animals in food until I find something I like better.
Got a message from my kid today which is still a thrill. He is such a sweetheart...he completely overlooks the fact that I get all sappy and turn into a complete cheeseball whenever I message him.
Also I got an email from my best friend. We have not talked in a long time but since she was the one who helped me do the original search for Jon I felt like I had to write and let her know. It was good to hear from her...made my week even better.

Went to the dinner theatre tonight.
My parents bought us tickets to 3 shows and I almost forgot about the second show.
Thankfully I remembered just in enough time to book the table, as it was the last week it was showing.
Chicken was amazing, but my poor attention span plus anxiety issues mean that I was itching to get out of there ASAP after food.
Anyways, it was nice to go "out" with my boyfriend.
It's been a long while, and was very enjoyable. |

But you enjoyed the food! That is great, my doc used to get on to me as if I went out I just consumed my meal without tasting it, it was all about leaving and being done. I think that is huge! Good going!
My day I saw the therapist and got a lot of food for thought. Will share when I digest it. |

I did enjoy the food, Veiled!
But probally not for the same reasons most people would.
'cause I can't smell, and my sense of taste is really messed up.
So I seek textures and temperatures I like.
The soup was so-so, with mushy vegetables (not a great texture) so after managing to eat 1/2 of it, I passed it to my boyfriend to finish.
The salad was crunchy, fresh, and cold! Yum! Couldn't get enough of it.
But the chicken was just so tender, it slide off the bone. Amazing!
I'm trying to enjoy things.
Take care all,

Maybe you would enjoy a "California Club" Many textures and fresh. A flaky tender croissant, plenty of crispy cold alfalfa sprouts, a little crunchy bacon, tender turkey deli thin, with smooth cold avocados. And of course anthony's fav, mayo hee hee (he hates it)
That is my favorite out to eat food and I would consume it and just realize it was gone, but home made I really enjoyed the mix. Now need to go post my food for thought. |

I was really P.O. about everything yesterday.
FIL not doing well and think he might have pneumonia - but neither he or H thought he should go to ER.
Lawyer(impatient, lecturing type) at in-laws to get "affairs" in order. Giving his own personal opinions of how things should be done.
My h in an incredible amt of pain from sitting(back problems) and listening to all this crap.
The only good thing, I left for a little bit and got cool fabric to make a couple bibs for the youngest grandchildren.
Just hoping today is better. |

Lost my entire morning to sleep seeing that I did an all nighter last night in very high anxiety on the edge of a full blown panic attack remaining to threaten me. So I was like on this cliff in terror and space all night, while feeling abandoned, helpless and trapped.
The rest of this day was like one big emotional hangover, worn-out, spacey and physically spent. This evening got better and has been pleasant, but quite frankly I'm feeling very afraid to go to bed. And, then again, afraid not to go to bed.

Today has been an okay day, very uneventful. I fell on my stupid arm today, tripped under my darling dogs which must get underfoot. I am icing as I type. I am planning on making Chicken for dinner and am defrosting. I figure this will be a blah day, and am hoping that I sleep good tonight. I have had some issues with nightmares again and will have to medicate if I cannot break the cycle naturally. My son Dustin called and is coming home tuesday until Wednesday, he was afraid I was mad at him as he colored his hair pink. What next. Cant wait to see this. |

Too bad my mind refuses to let me.
