So i've always been interested in watching a Clockwork Orange but have for years refrained from an attempt due to being wise about triggers. Thought i might be able to handle it tonight ( Read more... )

dbt, the journey's the thing

Clockwork Orange is an incredible movie, but is incredibly disturbing. I have a hard time with it as well. Some of the scenes haunt me with one thought.

So proud you are being so wise and proactive! Thanks for sharing your list. Not just things you CAN do to find relief, but things you HAVE done to be proud of. I like that. Great work! :-D

Thanks so much! I got through last night! I am feeling pretty proud. I wish i didn't get triggered so much, but i am glad i can say i rode it out better :)

I've never watched it because of worries about the same thing.
A huge WELL DONE to you! You've coped with it amazingly. It's still early in the morning for me and before coffee so my brain isn't quite awake yet but I just wanted to say that.

Aw, thanks so much! i really, really appreciate it. Yeah, it just may not be something for me to watch, and i'm working on accepting that as a possibility, not just for Clockwork Orange, but for other things too. I may handle reading the book better..the visual images really get to me.

Thanks again for your support, it does mean an awful lot.

I just wanted to say that I am SO EFFING PROUD of the way you handled the triggers. You're working so damn hard at putting dbt methods into use in your daily life, and that is so admirable.

You are getting stronger every day and I am honoured to be able to view your journey from the outside, with a glimpse of your thought process tossed in there, so that I can frankly easily see the difference that your hard work relating to dbt is working, and its working REALLY WELL.

GO YOU! YOU RULE! Keep up the great work.

Thanks so much, Alexis! That means SO much to me. I'm trying to keep it up. I'm very thankful for your support and encouragement. Your work in sharing DBT with me and everyone else is very admirable and greatly appreciated. it is making a real difference for me, and I'm glad you can see it.
