I got a new phone last year & have a different number.
My uncle said he called my old number the other day & somebody else answered.
They don’t know my phone number & I don’t want them to but I really need to get into my patient portal!! What should I do?

I’m already disabled but the pulled muscles happen with little movement/for no reason.

Today during my session, we were about to discuss something I wasn’t even gonna process or address but my words slipped ahead of me.
As I was trying to process I had to stop because I was feeling so nauseous & like I could pass out but I was afraid to tell my therapist.
Has anyone ever experienced similar symptoms in session?

First & foremost, I’ve lived on my own twice! Even in a whole state by myself!
I am disabled now & no longer able to work due to a work injury & I struggle with mental health & learning disabilities.
Anyways, my family member asked me to come live with her because my mom was abusive.
I’ve been here for about a year & 1/2 but things are getting so bad & worse everyday.
She admits to going through my room & things in my room, she’s opened my mail/stolen a package from (she wasn’t even gonna mention it so I went into her room & took it).
She locks her door everytime she leaves & I would NEVER go into her room!! I have no reason because I like being in my own room.
I can barely leave anywhere without her being nosey.
I bought my car with my own money & everything!
I am capable of more than I’m given credit for.
She tried to look at a paper in my purse & gets nosey about what appointments I have with whom & what for.
She thinks I’m supposed to discuss every detail of my life with her.
I’m feeling very disrespected.
I am grateful however I need to get back on my own now that I am financially independent & stable.
She has tried to degrade me just like my mom!!
She makes me eat what she makes because she thinks it’s healthier (because she doesn’t season anything?) TF.
I needed to vent.
I’m in the process of trying to get out but she says shit when she catches me carrying stuff out to my car.
She NEVER lets me just be here to clean my room & sit outside.
She expects me to go everywhere with her like I’m a child!
She didn’t raise me & she doesn’t need to raise me.
I’ve spent my time here & now I need to get back to my own responsibilities.

Anyone also been diagnosed with Psychological Non-epileptic Seizures.

I basically feel like I’ve passed out but I just sit there & don’t move & barely blinking.
Ammonia tabs do bring me out of it.
I always wondered if it tied into my POTS.

I haven’t been treated since 2018 because I was what I call in “remission”, until now, it’s even worse than it’s ever been!
I can’t stand longer than 20 minutes without nearly fainting, blood pooling so badly I feel like my hands & legs are on fire!
I wear compression stockings, hydrate with electrolytes, etc.
I already have a fractured vertebrae in 2 spots due to falling 4 years ago so that adds extreme pain & limited mobility so I’m looking to buy a rollator just so I can do my daily tasks & errands.
Showers are the worst/most difficult. I can barely finish hair washing before passing out.
I just needed to vent. I feel very alone & misunderstood.

My legs will feel like they’re burning!!
Anybody else?

Please help. We’ve met twice. We’ve been texting everyday for weeks & have a lot in common & have made it known we’re attracted to each other.
I really wanna ask her out so bad but I’ve never asked a girl out.
Should I wait a while more even though my heart is nearly exploding lmao.

My therapist had me run through the whole event.
He encouraged me to cry when I needed to.
I had a 3 minute small panic attack but it was not nearly as bad as they’ve been in the past.

Then I had coping skills group afterwards & starting feeling sick to my stomach, hot, lightheaded.
Cried a bit.
I had a very very rough week last week after processing mom trauma (ended up in the ER twice; one doctor refused to treat my dehydration because he said “it’s all in my head, it’s anxiety”.
I have a health condition actually, which he refused to even try to comprehend.
He was hard to understand himself because he was foreign.
But that pisses me off that they don’t even try to hear about someone’s condition(s).
He didn’t even do blood work or anything.
The next ER actually did something! It just sucks because it’s a bit further away.
So I’m very nervous that this one will trigger worse physical symptoms since it was more intense to process.

Does anyone have an addiction that led to trauma?
Like even the behaviors were traumatic, the thoughts, etc.

I’m not sure why but when I’m in a bad flare, I can barely hydrate because I am so nauseous. Even after Zofran.
My HR gets so high & that exasperates it.

How do y’all hydrate while dealing with severe nausea & the fear of getting sick?
I already ended up in the ER last week.

I haven’t been on a BB or anything in years because I was in remission until now.
So I now need to get back into medical appointments for some relief.

In the US. I just wondered if I ever took a microwaveable cup of rice on the road if I could warm it up in a gas station microwave!

Does anyone else in here do EMDR therapy?

I had my 2nd session, it was intense.
I ended up with a bad flare up & had to get IV fluids.

I know I should hydrate better on the day I have session.

Does anyone have any further tips or suggestions?

I genuinely couldn’t function without almost passing out.
