How do you cope with being overstimulated?

Find a quiet, dark place.
Use my headphones.
Pull my hat over my eyes.
Stay near my dog.
Breathe deep and fall asleep.

I want power over my emotions and my kneejerk reactions. The power to keep them all in check.

Keep trying. So many are now "behind enemy lines" in our own backyard. We must adjust to survive in such an environment.

My dreams are getting nastier meaning that they are getting what is coming to them to people who ostracized IRL and it's helping me sleep better.

All things dull and ugly,
All creatures short and squat,
All things rude and nasty,
The Lord God made the lot.

I don't want to go in to detail but if you pray can you pray for my family please? My mom and dad are sick and my mom is in the ER. Thanks!

Thanks everyone! My mom came home later that night after the hospital took her blood and gave her 1 anti nausea med. They made her wait for over 6 hours and NEVER gave her an IV! She's feeling good today though!

I am glad that she is feeling better.

I would like to get a straight answer on how much of C-PTSD is autism, how much autism is C-PTSD, and how much they can overlap. Something isn't right. Was chatting with a girl and she said that it sounds like you have nerve damage. Boy I sure wonder where that's from--how'd I get neurological issues? I'm only 26!

My last 2 therapists suggested mine was C-PTSD and not autism. Personally, after giving up on getting an NHS diagnosis, and being unlikely to ever want to spend over £1000 on a private one - I figure I'll return to EMDR therapy when I can next afford it, as that's very effective RE: trauma.

I feel like getting on a plane and going somewhere warm.

I just want to go on a plane like every other tom dick and harry. Not been on one since Easter 2001 23 years. Get the hell out of NYC for even a few days I am sick of NYC.

Reaping the benefits of well maintained self care routine. Absolutely amazing results!

Me too. I’m losing weight. Personal training at the gym and nutrition coaching are paying off only 4 weeks in!

That’s awesome! Feeling and seeing the results is so rewarding. Happy Saturday :)

Whoo!! Mom got paid today, I got a sleek new REVVL 7 android phone, and we got a NOICE room at a NOICE hotel, Home2 Suites By Hilton!! Pics in a minute

Today is different. After 4 days of being on my new dosage of my anxiety meds. I don't feel any anxiety at all. It's gone. Just me and my mentality. Noticing things I didn't before. How could I? I was in endless anxiety. This proves that I have a anxiety disorder. Likely GAD.

wow, that's a major breakthrough towards some healing up. Good for you!

That's great, but it really is just the first step. The meds have obliterated just about all of my anxiety and active depressive thoughts, but I've yet to make any changes that move me forward.

@Cutesie It's going to be a hard road. The medicine can only do so much. The rest is up to us. That will take time. The mind needs to heal, much like the rest of the body does. But I feel like I am in a better place. Everything doesn't feel horrible anymore.

Okay, note to self: dont try to fight my spinning sleep cycle. I tried to break it. This turned out to not be one of my better ideas. It made sense at the time.

Holiday Inn Express called the cops on us to kick us out a few days ago.... And they said we never paid them. I have been down there multiple times while we stayed there to witness my mother doing so. Then when my dad asked the cops if they heard the GM say they refused our payment, they said they heard no such thing and that we were "defrauding an innkeeper". Just another reason to have more hatred for this society!

Did you pay the hotel with cash? But failed to get a receipt from the hotel to prove you had paid?

@UberScout
What method of payment did your mom use?

I was very surprised earlier this month when I went to a dermatologist and
the receptionist said they didn't accept cash. So instead of the transaction
being completed at that time, it was 3 weeks before their billing department
which is in another state, sent me a bill, and I went to the CU, got a money
order, and mailed it to them.

Just found Lemur browser as a substitute to the discontinued Kiwi Browser that works with my extension on Android.
