In therapy today I raised that I thought I might have borderline personality disorder, and should I seek a diagnosis? She essentially said it might reduce my quality of life and access to certain things due to stigma, if I sought that diagnosis. How bloody sad is that

I’ve been blogging openly about my mental health, and have started a weight loss challenge as part of a drive to turn my life around. I’d really appreciate a like or a retweet, or some feedback. Tbh I need the moral support! And maybe I’ll help someone too fastingandfuming.net

Another post from the heart, I’m talking about the challenges of being a dad with #cptsd . Had to get this off my chest today. Scary one to press ‘publish’ on though 😰 fastingandfuming.net/2021/09/12/par…

I’ve spent most of my adult life trying not to be my dad. Now I have a daughter and whenever I’m parenting her I’m triggered. It’s like I’m a little kid again, seeing my dad’s face and mannerisms. Then I notice those mannerisms in myself and hate myself. It’s awful on many levels
Been intermittent fasting for about 8 months and felt real benefits. Just completed a 93 hour fast for the hell of it - amazing for focus, willpower and getting in touch with yourself ☺️

Hi guys, been a really tough few weeks and technically on a Twitter break but just wanted to say hi to some friends. Hope you are all well? 💜#SurvivorTough
When I was feeling better I applied for a job. Now i’m feeling shit I’ve got an interview. Give me strength 🙏 😩
I told my therapist I think I have cPTSD and not PTSD and she said “yup complex is definitely what id call it.”
Am a writer and new here #writerslift and need some friends we can grow together #WritingCommunity.
@cptsd_man Thanks you for sharing your personal and honest account from your childhood. Very brave of you. I recognise so many similarities, which makes me think there must be many many more suffers with C-PTSD who maybe have not yet received a diagnosis.

Childhood trauma causes you to build defence mechanisms to survive. It’s not until later that you come to realise your defences created a person that doesn’t fit in and maybe can’t cope with exposure to this brutal world
