    I just have questions like "what's it feel like to have something in there" and things of that nature.

    Isn't this Metal's exact story?

    Not exactly. I've seen some combat and I may have some residual problems from flying, but most of my PTSD problems stem from my childhood, where I was badly abused and a murder happened a couple doors down from me that basically made me disassociate until I was about 17.

    Oh my gosh I have tried to make this post three times from my phone and it still isn't on the damn page.

    Dang girl, I am really proud of you for challenging your past and your environment to better yourself in an effort to have a beautiful and happy life. And because I have tried to post this so many times and I am actually at a computer now, it makes me really happy that you choose that picture as your avatar. I really meant what I said about your smile when I commented on it the first time, and when you responded that you never thought you would get there, it broke my heart a little bit. Once you hopped in this forum you blew your guts open to us and I am once again so happy to have learned so much from what you have brought to the boards. And I am even more so happy to watch people come from shit situations where life itself seemed like hell before you got the chance to sin and take a look at themselves later and say "That happiness I feel right here, I did that and I did it for me." You are pretty awesome Metal, and I haven't even met ya yet.

    Well we usually have coffee at some downtown place on Wednesday evenings. That applies to any other portlanders, too.

    The pacific north west reminds me so much of New Zealand, particularly the South Island of NZ. It really blew me away at how similar they felt

    Hugs for @Metalbourne, hugs for all.

    Gotta go to school soon but I am mulling over the whole 24/7 thing a lot now. Would have to come out to the rest of my friends and work so that's super nerve-wracking. But I totes wanna do it some day soon. Still haven't gotten hair removal on my face, dangit. And I think I need it.

    Metal, DDV, Chris Titus, Dubh, and to a lesser extent Psy and Firetruck help me out in so many ways.

    To overcome or continue to struggle despite what happened in your life makes me what to continue. I mentioned in the heart thread awhile back but seeing people being that open about themselves and also letting others help them... I helps when depression hits me.

    This is kind of accurate but it's kind of a varied response depending on a lot of things? I'm assuming you mean in a positive way? Cause having been through a surprise!transvaginal ultrasound to check for cysts not too long ago having something in there can range from "really nice in a sort of warm tingly way like you just sat in a really hot bath kind of but not really sorta" to "not exactly painful but moderately uncomfortable and I'm going to go home and cry and feel very violated for a few days". I wish I had better language for it but it's not really a thing you think to sort of empirically consider how to describe. 'Like mixing increased blood flow to your skin with that sort of pressurey feeling of having to pee but in a really nice way not in a negative way or maybe when someone touches you really really softly and it's almost tickly but in a deeply pleasant way and all of this is localized but also not localized at the same time' is probably as close as I can get but that doesn't really sound sensical
