If You Wake Up After a Nightmare, Coping With Trauma Related Dissociation

[image ID: If You Wake Up After a Nightmare

If you wake up at night after a disturbing dream or nightmare, or feel anxious and panicky, it is important to be able to calm down and comfort yourself and other parts that are anxious. Work with yourself and your therapist to develop various ways to help yourself.

• The first step is always to get your bearings in the present. Use all the anchors to the present you have put in your bedroom. Talk to yourself quietly and tell yourself out loud where you are.

• Turn on the light and get out of bed. Perhaps have something to drink and find something to distract you.

• Splash cool or cold water on your face, hands, and the back of your neck. This will help you get more present and awake.

• Consciously slow your breathing. Try some breathing exercises.

• Do some gentle stretching exercises to help your body reorient to the present.

• If you have a pet, spend a little time petting or cuddling with him or her.

• If you have physical symptoms, such as a bad taste in your mouth, or pain or discomfort, be mindful in talking to yourself inwardly as you do things to soothe yourself (for instance, brush your teeth, have a noncaffeinated drink, suck on a mint or hard candy, massage painful muscles): "I am in the present now. Whatever happened to me is over. I am safe. My mouth, my legs, my body, etc., are in the present. I am doing all I can to help all parts of myself." Try to be aware of any internal sense of what might help.

• Some people find that it helps if they write down a distressing dream or image and then put it away, tear it up, or bring it to therapy. The idea is not to go further into the experience, but to contain it by putting it on paper and leaving it until a more appropriate time.

• You might try "changing" your nightmare. Add a supportive or strong person to the dream, invent a way out of the situation, or give yourself special powers to overcome any sense of powerlessness or fear in the dream. Your therapist may be able to help you with this kind of technique.

• Some people wake up from a nightmare and find they are unable to move. Although this is extremely uncomfortable and even frightening, it will not last for very long. It is simply the state of being paralyzed by fear. If this happens to you, make sure you have some anchors to the present visible from every angle from the bed: on your left, your right, even on the ceiling. Even though you cannot yet move, you can begin to see the anchor and gradually perceive you are in the present. This perception will help your body shift out of that paralysis mode. Try starting with a tiny movement, for instance, blinking your eyes, and just barely twitching your toe or little finger. When you can do this, then move the opposite toe or finger. Then make a slight movement with your hand or foot, then your arms or legs. Continue slowly and patiently until your entire body has become more able to move.

Actors role playing DID can be identified from differences in brain activation patterns, compared to people with DID - and brain activation patterns depend on whether an trauma holder alter / EP is in charge or a Apparently Normal Part / host - supporting the Theory of Structural Dissociation of the Personality (TSDP).

Multiple brain scan studies support structural dissociation, brain activation differences between alters, brain activation differences between people with DID and healthy controls or trained actors pretending to have DID.

Regions of the brain activated are those known to be associated with self-referencing and sensorimotor actions, but not the regions linked to imagination

I was diagnosed with DID (Dissociative Identity Disorder) in 2022 and these past couple years have taught me a lot. I'm always seeking to understand and be understood. I hope this video can help even one person.

According to my iPcounter, people from Detroit and LA check up on my blog every day. This would be my biological mother or family, and Alyssa. They are on here almost everyday, often multiple times a day. All parties hate me ans attack me for being honest about bring trafficked, abused, and having severe DID and PTSD. You people are fucking pathetic. I don't stalk any of you people. I don't keep up with any of you people. I don't know what any of you are doing on or off the Internet and I don't want to know. I don't want to see or hear from you nasty abusive stalkers.

Sorry I'm so beautiful, interesting, creative, and entertaining that it broke your brains and now you can't get enough of me, I guess.

Happy DID Awareness Day! This post is a brief explanation of how the pandemic affected my mental health and allowed me to finally get some answers via a DID diagnosis. It also serves as a simplified explanation of what DID is.

Happy DID Awareness Day! This is a brief explanation of how the pandemic affected my mental health and is a simplified explanation of what DID really is. Early in the pandemic, we spent a lot of time by ourself. We had just moved into our dad’s full-time, he worked all day and our brother was still living with our mom. For the first time in nearly 20 years, we were alone. And we were safe. We…

How Can Adjustment Disorder Symptoms Be Managed?

Adjustment disorder is a mental health condition that can develop in response to a stressful life event or change. It is a short-term condition that typically occurs within three months of the stressful event and lasts no longer than six months after the event has ended.

Adjustment disorder is different from other mental health conditions in that it is specifically linked to a stressful life event or change

adjustment disorder Symptoms

Sure, here are some common symptoms of adjustment disorder:

Feeling sad, hopeless, or overwhelmed

Anxiety, nervousness, or worry

Difficulty concentrating

Changes in sleep patterns (sleeping too much or too little)

5. Modifications in appetite (eating excessively or insufficiently)

Irritability, anger, or aggression

Avoidance of certain situations or people

Reckless or impulsive behavior

9. Physical signs include headaches or indigestion

Social withdrawal or isolation

These symptoms may vary depending on the nature of the stressor and the individual's coping skills. If you are experiencing these symptoms or other mental health concerns, seeking help from a mental health professional, such as a therapist or counselor, may be a good first step toward healing and recovery.

treatments

The treatment for adjustment disorder may vary depending on the individual's symptoms and needs, but here are some common treatments:

Psychotherapy: This may include cognitive-Behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, or other forms of talk therapy. A therapist can help the individual develop coping skills, identify and challenge negative thought patterns, and learn to manage stress.

Medication: In some cases, medication such as antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications may be recommended to help manage symptoms.

Stress management techniques: Relaxation exercises, mindfulness meditation, and other stress-reduction techniques can help reduce symptoms and improve overall well-being.

Social support: Building a strong support system, such as through friends, family, or support groups, can help individuals with adjustment disorder feel less isolated and more connected.

Lifestyle changes: Making healthy lifestyle changes, such as improving sleep habits, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly, can help reduce symptoms of adjustment disorder.

It's important to note that seeking help from a mental health professional, such as a therapist or counselor, is often the first step toward effective treatment for adjustment disorder. A mental health professional can work with you to develop a treatment plan that meets your individual needs and helps you feel better.

At TalkToAngel , we offer online counseling services with licensed mental health professionals who specialize in helping individuals with adjustment disorders and other mental health concerns. Our therapists provide a safe and confidential space to discuss your concerns and work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan to address your unique needs and goals.

After my one post where we found out you didn’t need blackout amnesia to have DID went viral, and after I met a system IRL at school who though they were osdd1b (was actually DID) I’ve come to the conclusion

we all have a condition called “ohhh I don’t have it that bad”

like we’re severely underestimating how LITTLE amnesia you need to qualify from osdd1b to DID

I don’t think I realised how deep this unhealthy attachment I have to my mother actually runs. 

My mother was just as involved in everything as my dad was, but for some reason i can’t seem to bring myself to break contact with her. The idea of losing touch with her completely breaks me every day, despite knowing she isn’t the woman my child brain made her out to be. 

I’m learning that there’s no right way to process this kind of thing. That it doesn’t make the abuse any less true, and that it doesn’t make me a coward. Nights like these make that a bit of a hard fact to swallow, though. Especially when you have that child part of you that is constantly crying out for her mum.

Hi guys,

I really need your help and it's not about money.

Any form of interaction (share, comment, like) will be helpful.

We will have a big project for our uni soon.

We want to prove that people with DID/OSDD are not dangerous and that movies/media have negative impact.

We want to prove that people with DID/OSDD are as dangerous as any other human being and often because of trauma they are less likely to hurt people.

This is serious job to do. We need your opinion, we need your contact, we need to know some stuff about you (we won't ask about trauma).

If you want to help with our project contact me please. We won't use/share any info about you. Only our uni profesor and the person who will check our work will know about it and it's serious project which will help me to finish this year.

If you have DID/OSDD and you are diagnosed with it contact me please. I can't do anything without you.

I don't care about people opinion so if you want to write that systems are dangerous just stay quiet. That type of comments will be removed.

Thanks for reading.

Everyone Loves the Dead Pedophile

I wrote, in passing, that my father molested me (grandfather if I hadn't been adopted by him) on my social media, and several family members proceeded to gang stalk me - particularly my biological mother and brother in law. They both tried for over a year to reason with my mom to kick me out and render me homeless. My brother in law threatened to fly to America to kill me. My shitty crackhead biological brother told me, a disabled person who is extremely ill, to get a job and otherwise had no contact with me. Neither my brother nor my two sisters talk to me, they "sided" with my biological mother.

My biological mother had a tearful reunion with my mother where my mother comforted her and my biological mother told her that my dad molested her. And yet... she spent over a year harassing me on the internet and telling everyone I was a spoiled brat (including one of my friends who is an autistic teenager - she literally started insulting him when he told her to leave him alone) and that I made up being molested. She harassed me for over a year on a lot of my social media posts and kept making accounts to get around blocks.

WHAT KIND OF A FUCKING PERSON DOES THAT. Is my biological mother a pedophile or someshit?

Long story short, half my family disowned me and several began harassing me because I was honest about my adoptive father molesting me. One of the people harassing me is another victim of my father so she KNOWS I'm not lying. She's literally just trying to hurt me for sport. What a fucking sociopath.

She brainwashed my siblings into thinking there was something wrong with me for speaking the truth. I don't believe information pertaining to pedophilia should ever be kept quiet. You know someone that's a pedophile? Fucking tell everyone and make sure your community knows. I don't believe in keeping abuse a secret.

My biological mother told my family two separate accounts of being molested by our father (by adoption, my biological mother is my sister since her parents adopted me), although she claims it was just one time and doesn't remember telling two different versions. She was around 7 or 8 I think. My mother and father sent her to a therapist who told them she lied, so they sent her away to boarding school "for unruly girls" for the rest of her childhood. She was erased from the family, they didn't take family pictures of her anymore, they sold her possessions including her saxophone.

I thought that was a fucking tragic thing and so unfair. So as much as I don't consider biological mother or siblings my family anymore since they chose to be emotionally abusive towards me and bully me, I do think there's a beautiful poignance to her life.

Steffanie, my biological mother, lived a very hard life, even after she left the family after getting married. She never really had a good chapter in her life, everything has been difficult. She struggled to raise three children in abject poverty. The truth is, although she's never claimed it, Steffanie is too disabled to work and always has been - I think in part because of what happened to her. She briefly worked as a stripper and sugar baby, which I think shows that she has always had a difficult time with sex.

While I'm pro sex work legalization, it's still a difficult class of jobs that has very real emotional tolls on people who engage in it. It distorts your relationship with sex. I've never been a sex worker but I have dated or had sex with people I otherwise wouldn't have because they helped me not be homeless, and that was traumatizing for me.

Steffanie has dated many abusive men that physically abused her. Most of them were hard drug addicts. She has lived in poverty in the countryside, then moved to the inner city of Detroit with her second husband (he wasn''t abusive as far as I know, it's a shame he died so young). Poverty and exposure to gang violence (several family members were affiliated with Detroit gangs) and violence in her relationships has absolutely shattered her.

Here's to Steffanie. She fucking hates me and I'm not going to be around people who bully and abuse me. But she has a story worth telling.
