| | 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. |  | |

| |  Funny Story Involving Hypervigilance
i thought some of you may enjoy this story...
so. came home tonight, the fire was on low. (gas fire) i went to turn it up using the knob to the left of our faux loggage (inside the fireplace)...and A MOUSE comes FLYING out at my head. i scream bloody murder, connecting curse words and random adjectives like never before. (in fact, the huz said it was my finest work to date) this is an accomplishment in itself, because he has lived with my hypervigilant ass for the past 3 and a half years. yes. i curse when i freak out. not even on purpose most of the time. and i stress "most". hence, sentence fragments like f-ckity f-ck f-ck F-CKER just fly out.
there are two main troubling realizations from this experience:
1) The mouse is, in fact, fire retardant, he leapt OUT OF the fire. this is no ordinary mouse.
2) Oliver (my little 8lb pup) is NOT going to have my back like i thought he would if a time ever arose . HE RAN AWAY. granted he is neutered so what can i really expect. but STILL.
this means war. but i'm actually not sure what that means. but still, it means WAR.  |

Flying, fire proof mouse? You got some tough, bad-assed rodents in your neck of the woods!!!! LOL
I'm glad to know that I'm not alone in my propensity to string together inventive and unusual combinations of swear words when I get stressed out. It's amazing how quickly your mind can put words together. LOL |

Hi Elvis
You must have some Battle Hardened mice, Jings you'd better watch out. Whats next Kamikazi mice, Frightning isn't it. Up in Glasgow the rodents give you a Glasgow Kiss (They Head-but you).
Better get out your Helmet and be ready for battle girl, and get a cat as well. :claps:
Take care
