My best therapist helped me rise out of my trauma when I was 12
I was molested by my cousin at that time, so as a defense mechanism I started dressing as a boy to make myself unattractive
So she got me to stop doing that eventually
I even was saying to address me as a he
Wow
That’s how I also know transgender identity issues are trauma
It’s not natural
Imagine if I were doing that in this day and age as a result of trauma; the therapist due to liberal propaganda would be *encouraging* me instead of discouraging it
So I’d never heal
Amazing, good point - life could be changed drastically over liberal propaganda

I’m so happy I had her to guide me out of that
It was traumatic for me bc I grew up with that cousin like a brother
So it rlly messed me up
I can only imagine
Worst part of my ptsd is paranoia and my dark sense of humor and insensitivity to death but I think paranoia keeps me alive - otherwise I feel generally healthy especially since getting off meds
That’s so great, I’m weaning off my antidepressant myself.
I have a dark sense of humor as well
I had to wean off little by little
I noticed your insensitivity towards death but I can also understand that given you being a veteran
Theyd prescribe me anti-depressants to deal with PTSD which i thought made it worse and made me more tired all the time
Oh wow
Did you take Paxil by any chance?
Sure did and that was the hardest to ween off
That’s what I’m weaning off now, for depression, anxiety & nightmares from ptsd
OMG
it is hard!
Horrible when you dont get a refill in time
The nightmares have come back hard as hell
I’m also having motion sickness
Once you get to that 3rd day without, it gets bad
Brain zaps and all
That’s what happened to me
That’s crazy
I’m weaning off properly now
Which I planned to do
But what happened was I was so busy I forgot to pick it up
And the pharmacy was closed
So I went without about 3 days
I’m back just with a lower dose still
Yepp, thats the best way to go instead of cold turkey based on my experience
