Love these videos when you talk about what's going on in your life.

I read The Body Keeps the Score. Worthwhile. 450 pages. I made a point of not remembering the date of my mother's death. I do know what it is, but I don't think about it on the day. My biggest regret and biggest mistake I ever made was I did not stay away from my family when I moved out. Big mistake. You might benefit from Art Forentyna's channel. She has a narcissistic mother. Boy howdy does she ever. She's a writer too.

I've heard of the book. I had no idea what day it was. It all made sense why I was so extreme in my mood when I realized what day it was. Forget about my mother, it was the anniversary of one of the most stressful days in my life. Seeing my sister for the first time in like 15 years. Being guilt tripped by my cousins. Having to clean out her apartment in 3 days. And being massively pissed off at her medical "care." It was a bad day.

@@ck2d Yup that's a bad day. I remember you talking about it. Esp. that part about your sister. Plus I don't know how you get the apt. cleaned out so fast. It was way way too much responsibility to be on one person's shoulders. My T recommended the book. It's very popular. It's about childhood trauma esp the chronic kind when living with someone who is a daily stressor. I've been dx'd with c-ptsd. You have it no doubt. :)

@@engleharddinglefester4285 Yes I've bern diagnosed with cptsd too. The real kind, not the one some wackadoodle is peddling on youtube. But to me the whole alphabet soup of diagnosis doesn't matter to me. It's all more or less the same, and the therapy overlaps. So long as you work on the root issue the rest will improve. For example, I have depression - due to my AvPD lifestyle. I can take all ghe meds they want to throw at me. It won't make a difference because the problem causing the depression won't change.

@@ck2dIn the book he mentions linking up with people in a kind of rhythm. It's about getting in with people and getting in synch with them, like dancing or acting. I think card games or board games will help too. I don't play games, but I am/was a guitar player. I truly feel like myself when I play in a group. Haven't done it in years but it's so remarkable I remember how good I felt the last hoot I played at. For all I know, sports games are good; being in the crowd and participating sort of as a member of it. Car races. Maybe war too. Observe there's a rhythm to machine guns.
