Hello garnet!! So nice to see your message!! I'm doing a little better than before, thank you. Just needed some sunshine, good therapy, and a bit of self-care. New pdoc next week--I'm hopeful!
Ah...hypervigilance...you know that's what my therapist was saying to me. That, for instance, hypervigilance is going into a room and wanting to choose the one seat where you can see where absolutely everyone is. That's me!! I think sometimes it's hard to register when my mood is low--that what I'm experiencing is not my worst fear, but an explainable set of symptoms that I CAN work through. Thank you for that reminder; one day, it will work its way through this thick skull of mine. :)
Garnet, so good to hear from you. How are you doing???

> Well quasi-paranio is really hypervigilence in context with PTSD. Maybe it would be helpful for you to read up on hypervigilence? I know when my very first therapist pointed this out to me, it was very helpful. Come here more often, ok? Let me know how you are doing. : )
