New to the group

Hello all, I’m Kat and I have a few challenges so I thought I’d come find my people as well as be a cheerleader for those who are struggling. I have C-PTSD, borderline personality disorder, and some symptoms of bipolar 2 disorder (they can’t say yes or no on the bipolar because the symptoms could be the C-PTSD and Borderline. all three disorders and all symptoms are covered by an umbrella cause - prolonged, consistent trauma. To top it off, I also was diagnosed with anxiety, panic disorder, and akathisia. I also have chronic fatigue syndrome and long COVID, thanks to having been positive for COVID 5 times to date. While trying to diagnose the CFS, they discovered I have asthma and a vocal cord disorder. I am a mom of 6, a wife of a man who could not possibly be anything but an angel, I’ve been in Human Resources for over twenty years, I am a trauma informed life coach and working on starting my private practice, and I recently became published author.

Gentle reminder that whatever you say to yourself in your mind comes out and affects you even if you don't mean it to

I definitely need to work on how often I vent frustration with the body I have been given. Every so often I have to stop and readjust my thoughts for the better, thanking my body for all it does to try to do what I want.
It does the best it can and I need to appreciate what it can offer.

Fired my psychiatrist #Depression #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #PTSD

2 wks ago my therapist wanted me to get on Klonopin to calm my thoughts cause my beta blocker wasn’t working. So I called my psychiatrist and scheduled an appointment. Well, that went over like a lead balloon 🎈. She was only going to give me 2wks worth. I asked will it be 2 wks worth every month she said no. 2 wks worth isn’t going to be enough. Beta blockers should not be prescribed to anyone who has asthma. So, I made a appointment with a Nurse Psych practitioner at the place where I wanted to in the first place. This place I love because the psychiatrist helped me so much with my postpartum depression and anxiety. She ended up giving me gabapetin. I looked that up and it says cause significant weight gain. No way Jose! I’m keeping my weight off since I have been walking. I have been the same weight this whole time. Caplyta helped me loose weight besides my walks.
