How do I deal with jealousy and insecurity in myself and in my relationship. How do I deal with my partner looking at other women or vice versa?
I have major issues with this. I have to low self esteem. I have a physical disability and major depression. I sometimes wonder why he is with me. He has become more of my caretaker than my love… read more
Hoping to hear from others with similar experiences. My mother used to hit me as a baby and toddler whenever I cried. I learned to stop crying and freeze. There was other stuff too. Decades later, I still only feel truly safe with animals, not people. So the trauma came before the depression.
Do you separate your PTSD symptoms from depression or is it all one big challenge? How do you deal with trust issues? Any success stories?
Hi
I am sorry you are living with such trauma
I had a different type of trauma as a child. Before my mom passed recently she and I talked about my memories.I also have been able to talk a little… read more
After a rough week of panic and anxiety, I was essentially anxiety free Saturday, my Sabbath) I kept checking for it, nope not there. Which is odd because the reasons for the anxiety and panic (at least this round) are on my work calendar in the coming weeks.
I have 16 puppy dogs and I'm never lonely but I do miss my hubby when he gone all day🥰
Mine is anxiety, depression, and PTSD. What other matches are out there? and what do you think the difference and the similarities are? like between someone with anxiety and depression, and someone with ODD and depression, or bipolar and depression?

I struggle immensely with self-criticism and self-bullying which is obviously doing more harm than good. My internal critic has taken control of my daily thoughts which is something I really need to curb. My question is: How can I incorporate self-compassionate practices into my daily routine when I don't believe I am worthy of my own love and compassion? I know it sounds strange but I don't believe that I deserve my own love and compassion, much less other people's. When people treat me with… read more

Other people's negative and I'll informed attitudes to our illnesses can be a great hindrance to how we understand our illnesses; can even prevent us from seeking treatment. How has the stigma affected you?
To be frank, I didn't experience any issues with stigma. I've been receiving treatment for nearly 25 years for depression. People seem hesitant but remain supportive.
I need to add something that will give a motivational boost. I wish there was a med that evenly balanced the neurotransmitters.
Zoloft is a good antidepressant. I have taken it for the last 15 years.
Never worry or be embarrassed about wanting to ask a question I had people in my home life wouldn't let me talk or made me feel stupid it destroyed me then I started listening and talking to other… read more
