Title: Hi
Post by: Camomille on September 22, 2015, 09:28:57 AM
Hi! It's Camomille.

I don't want to get too descriptive in my introduction since my background is 90 percent bog-standard around here, I'm sure. I'm an ACON, NC with all of FOO sans fretting and hand-wringing on my part. One PD sibling. PD parents are high-functioning.

I'm pretty sure that C-PTSD is at the root of my worst residual issues, if you can call them that. You could just call them 'issues'. The worst of it is that I'm still letting my superego run roughshod over my self and anything I want, and when I don't, I dread the fallout that it has been wired into my brain is coming. Even now that it doesn't. And that makes me freeze and unable to do what's best for me. Or anything at all except what I must in order to keep breathing. Actually, if it's something I must do, I do it too well, because my compliance-at-all-costs-for-the-sake-of-survival mode is still alive and well. And that's what I'm fighting.

See you around.

Hi Camomille  :wave:

By the looks of it you'll be great company.
Preaching to the choir can be fun. And afterwards you can sing along with us.

Welcome, and looking forward to see you around the boards.
:hug:
