Just thought I'd take a sneak peek... haven't stopped by in over a year. The site looks nice - different, but nice. And a hello to anyone who recognizes me.
Amazing how time flies when you're busy.

It's been a while...
"The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth that strength can only be developed by effort and practice, will, thus believing, at once begin to exert itself, and, adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at last grow divinely strong."

Hi Dalia, good to see you back. How have you been?
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil

Not too bad. Been mostly working, going to school, and throwing a little money toward therapy. Was finally correctly diagnosed with PTSD - not bipolar... so no more medications, which has been a great relief. Depression improved with REBT and some bit of support here and there. Doesn't mean I've reached the utopian version of my life, but it's definitely better than it has ever been thus far.

How have things been on the forum and IRL?"The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth that strength can only be developed by effort and practice, will, thus believing, at once begin to exert itself, and, adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at last grow divinely strong."

Anxiety disorders tend to be particularly common, and so I sense that the logistics of providing any meaningful treatment would simply cost too much. At least, that seems to be reasoning of most mental health care providers. Originally Posted by Kiechi

I still have nightmares, I still remember things I don't want to, and I still have panic attacks - however, I'm learning how to manage such things. It would be nice if insurance covered the therapy though..."The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth that strength can only be developed by effort and practice, will, thus believing, at once begin to exert itself, and, adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at last grow divinely strong."

Hey Dalia, good to hear things are going well.
Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.
