Working with Dissociative disorder is the main key;
.
For most years; and most of the time in the recovery process; most of the time; Ive been working with or on Dissociative disorder; Depression Agoraphobia, Avoidant personality disorder; Longer term PTSD CPTSD…
.
I did use drugs in high school; this lasted for about 4 years; I ended up with psychosis and stopped; later in my 20’s I started drinking; In my late 20’s I stopped; I was forced because I could not stop drinking… However; I ended up in the Nuthouse for PTSD reasons; And ended up in the recovery meetings… And this basically stopped all alcohol consumption. I learned from my ignorant perspective; I learned about alcohol and drugs and how dangerous it is to get involved or stay involved; I learned; I got out of it; My whole results of using drugs n alcohol was to escape; I was looking for relief for untreated severe mental health problems…
.
And thats what got me involved in 12 step meetings; It didn’t click at first; I took about 6 months after my first meeting. However; later I started going and it caught on. That was about 30 years ago. Through most of this I was dealing mental health problems that will get more severe and worse; to a point; Im basically schizophrenic like. Meaning; totally disabled.
.
Here N Now;
Im still Disabled. However; something wonderful has happened; In the attitude department; in the spiritual department; things have changed; In the Hope department; things have changed. Im interested in setting goals; In setting goals and working with a higher power; Universe; Sunny Jesus; The Holy Spiritus of the universe; Things have changed… Im seeing changes; positive changes…
.
Im still extremely triggered from massive PTSD.. My deeper inner self is never present; Its from a war like condition of the past.. And Im in that war zone; Im like a guy that was in WW1; out in the battle field and the bombs 2 many times.. I never left it.. My inner self is always on alert from the past.
So; the prognosis is; Ill be disabled for the rest of my life; And I am. Nothing has changed from within. Well; thats not true; but that base of who I am has not changed; it remains; I remain ruptured and on high alert from within. And generally; I feel; the general victim of this will never function again….
.
However; And then; Theirs me; SMILE!
.
Because; not only the shrinks and therapists and psychologists and nut meds; All the years of theropy; I also; spent years in the recovery meetings…
.
For someone almost completely disconnected from life and society; These meetings helped… I didn’t feel anything when I first started; I was not present… Within the years I started to wake up; it wasnt easy and the meetings were not safe; Anyone can come n go from the meetings; Lot of criminals at times and so one… narcissists and so one.. sociopath and at times stalkers… brain damaged people.
.
At some point; I start opening up more n more; and I study how to open up again to people. My condition is much like someone who had a stroke. Ive had to relearn everything concerning the outside world… And I continue to learn from this day…
.
God led me to start studying success based thinking processes; How to be a winner and how to Think and grow rich; This kind of thinking; I started this about 11-12 years ago; I really got hooked on it and never stopped; I still use it today all the time… I love this way of thinking; The law of attraction; manifestation and so on… believing Ill get something because I believe it before it shows up and so on… I write allot of stories about what I want before they show up….
.
.
So; Here I am now….
.
And where am I at right now;
.
I have a good attitude… I believe; I have hope….
.
This hope leads me on… I have a belief in my higher powers help and protection…..
.
I have massive hope for my future; it just keeps ge...
