From one of Bobbie Peale’s boys to another… Fer a one way plane ticket to Scotland, I’ll fight ye.  Jus dun make me weer a kilt when ye do. I’m embar-assed easlee. Jim P.S. Hang in there Andy, it WILL get better.

Hi Andy, I believe I feel the same way right now.I’m new to this group, have been reading the threads for a couple weeks.  I have been struggling with my problems for years now, and I don’t know how to get out of this trap that I’m in.  The drugs I have tried haven’t really helped.  It just goes on and on and on.  And the fact that a lot of time has been taken up by my ptsd just makes me more frustrated.  I know that I can’t offer you much, but if you want to talk further, this is  the place.   Or you can e-mail me.

>Why am I haunted by something which happened 11 years ago?

Because the event(s) are yet unresolved in your psyche.  Totally I understand! Personally, I am haunted by something(s) that happened over 30 years ago.  The hauntings are becoming less haunting.  I’m becoming more aware of patterns and unconscious thoughts/behaviors.  All this takes time and very hard work with a good therapist.  Since you’ve just started therapy, things could feel worse before they start feeling better.  But they will feel better.   > Im sick of it.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Andy}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Sick of it?  Yes!  >I dont know what trhe future holds Yeah, and it’s really hard to face the future (whatever it holds) when we’re feeling so awful.     >give me >physical pain any day rather than this fucking crap.Sorry if that offends >your >American sensibilities, but

Just curious:  what nationality are you?  I’m not offended.  Quite the contrary — this is THE place to express our feelings and get support at the same time. As a teenager, I recall laying in my bed at night thinking, "Physical pain is nothing; it’s the mental pain that’ll kill ya."  It’s really tough, I know. And I do understand. >Anyone want a fight??

Shadow boxing, perhaps?   Peace, Hope and Rainbows — Ame

I should point out that I mean no offence to Americans- I just thought American based ngs were more disapproving of certain words than we Celts. Im in Scotland by the way.When I sign on to a US chat area , a message comes up warning me that US tastes in language are less tolerant than ours! Is this true, or can I carry on swearing like a trooper.I could swear in Gaelic if that would help. Andy.
