That does sound like PTSD, David. Is she getting therapy? It seems like it might be necessary if not.
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.

Spike's Bitches 33: Weeping, crawling, blaming everybody else
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

She's seeing a therapist, but I told her to talk about PTSD specifically. I'll have to call her and remind her tomorrow because she literally can't remember things we talk about the previous day. She's incapable of really taking any information in right now.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

This. And something like tai chi or yoga might be good. Something to focus and calm the mind for a bit.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Hey, all! I'm a wee bit tipsy tonight. Today was my Official Last Day as a full time employee. They bought donuts for the whole office in my honor, took me out to lunch and took me out for drinks after work. Then, one of my collegues took me out for a really nice dinner after drinks. I'm seriously gonna miss a lot of those people.
After reading this thread, I want that pink fur purse that Jilli linked to (OMG so cute!) and a crack mat for my cat. That last one is really for my own amusement.
Dear me. I start student teaching on MONDAY!!! What if they hate me? What if I suck? Dear me.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
What if they hate me?
Not. Gonna. Happen. You're you, after all!

MiracleMan, I ordered the book, it's on the way.
Pete (and rest of frag-fest-folk). It looks like I am GO on the X-box! :) dunno all the details. He's in process of moving this week. Possibly take possession in about 2 weeks or so. I now know what the gift cards will go towards! So, is there a generic 2 month free trial thang for Xbox Live?

Awww, thanks, y'all. I'm having some serious wiggens about the whole thing right now. I mean, I've worked pretty hard for 4 years getting to this point, I've quit my job, and now that it's here, it doesn't seem quite realy and I'm scared that I made a HUGE mistake.
One part of me knows those thoughts are my doubts speaking and that it'll be okay once I actually start. But, damn, those doubts are really loud right now.
