How lonely living with CPTSD can be
Until about October or November 2021, I had not met anyone else diagnosed with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, in person. There are groups and communities online where I found fellow survivors. Where they were in their journies varied differently. Heck, I have even heard from the naysayers and non-believers. They are wonderful. There areContinue reading “How lonely living with CPTSD can be”
It’s Christmas Eve, 2021. I’m Reflecting
Reflecting on what? I do not know. Exactly. Or, specifically. Nor do I even know what my intent is in reflecting, at this moment at least. The best I can feel is simply because I suspect Normalizing and Rescripting are prominent for me currently. How does it feel? Weird Uncomfortable Good(ish) Positive SCARY Beautiful HarrowingContinue reading “It’s Christmas Eve, 2021. I’m Reflecting”
5 days into 2022
And it has been a whirlwind. An unexpected crisis this afternoon. An unexpected death of a dear friend of my boyfriend and I. For Wolf, he was a second father in some ways.

Stagnation, Stagnant and Me
Dear Diary, Clearly today is not my best mood. The weather is amazingly beautiful today. (I admit, given the number of storms we have had recently, this does NOT take require a lot. Sunny and few, if any clouds. And in the 30s!!!!!) Yet, I cannot go out to enjoy it. We are stuck inContinue reading “Stagnation, Stagnant and Me”
Gratitude: Growth, Progress
Dear Diary, A blog I follow, The Write Nook, recently reminded me to write about gratitude. Yes, I have heard this before. Read it. Thought about it. Pondered it. Forgot about it. Lost touch with it. Wrote it in Daylio (app). Made lists of it. Bought books about it. (List books included). And more, probably.Continue reading “Gratitude: Growth, Progress”
Taxes, aargh!!!
Dear Diary, Three times I have gone into my account to complete this task. Three times, unsuccessfully. Next, I lock myself out of one account. Okay. Until I found out I have to wait for my temporary password to arrive via United States Postal Mail! In my area, the mail is a mess for mostContinue reading “Taxes, aargh!!!”
