And some people actually don't have the skills too. Some people aren't at 7 years of experience. Your PTSD isn't everyone's, and sometimes they can't just fucking deal and that ends up as a trip to the ER. Everyone is different.

It's fairly common in academic circles (arts) to call your SO, partner. I did for years when I had one. Now I'M FREE!!!

I use to be a big Medical drama fan, and a big and blind 'doctors are the good guys' supporter. I was so naive. I'm reasonable in the sense I get that they are people, exceptionally busy, and make mistakes, but ya those mistakes are big ones.

Other days I'm like this: "They deserve to die, all of them!"

That's awful. Just gaaaaaa. /internet hugs if you want them.

Nah, the lady brain couldn't grasp what the skull and cross bones meant. I was certain it was pirate flavour and hubby loves pirates.

Good idea, exactly why conversation is so necessary. ^_^

There's probably a bad egg or two that have lied and used it to get out of stuff. But most people I've met with PTSD want their life back. I do. Now, if you asked me to go to the scene of the trauma, no. Just no. But read about a similar thing, with ahead notice, I can do that, but I don't like surprises.

I'm an instructor with recent PTSD, and in 500 students I had one mention it to me. They only mentioned because I stated I have PTSD, and they thought I'd understand. I tried to be sensitive and give them a heads up warning when difficult topics came up. It worked, sometimes not, because you can't control every…

For me trigger warnings are a heads up. When I am aware that the material has content that is triggering I am better prepared to handle it. When it comes and ninja's me, I can't contribute to the conversation, and I probably won't process anything that was said. Hell, reading a book these days is feat of strength.

Pranks calls freak me out. I'm so glad they got what was coming to them.

I've said it before, if you talk to me for long enough I will tell you all about my period horror stories and how my period almost killed because you know that shit is totes in your head.

On the rare instance I date, you will get the details of these stories and how it triggers my PTSD and instructions on how to deal…

If I had to guess, it was probably the straw that broke the camels back. So many little things added up and then BOOM!

Rage quit?

Damn, if your grad school was like my grad school, maybe they don't let you add because FB knows it's either an unhealthy or emotionally abusive relationship. But me and my imaginary friends, that totes healthy.

Is "In a relationship with a fictional character(s) and/or imaginary friend(s)" an option on FB?

That looks so familiar, what is it?

Oh this I agree entirely, it's really messed up. People are horrible to strangers because they don't try to hide or control their nastiness because no one will see. (My point in the previous post was to support your 'you don't need to be an asshole.')

I'm gonna guess that guy has issues? Dunno, for years we've had the same family call us and I still say sorry wrong number. Amusing 2 years ago my friend notice that our number was 1 number off their SOs. Turns out, they were trying to call my friend's significant other's family. Yes, small world weirdness. I am…

Press their earring and say "Show's over Synergy" and you'll find out.

I'm pleased to see they are getting Stars too. I might be in the small few, but I loved first season and R in DiC dub. After that... the english version is pretty hard to watch.
