Dysanix Official

Here!

@WillHunting Hey yes! I am here :-)

Or personal profile rather

Do you think this is a good personalia for a resume?

That is what I have it as right now

And yes I turned it into employers :-)

Thank you!

I was just about to send it away

Phew

Very much appreciated

Thank you for all your kindness and help

Alright! I will be sure to contact you soon

Did your PTSD symptoms worsen by a lot when you got out of the traumatic situation? I am not sure if I can ask that question or what your traumatic experience was, so if you do not want to give a reply that is fine. Because it took me by surprise that my symptoms of flashbacks, dissociation of the world around me and anxiety levels shot through the roof when I finally started living on my own and got to rest

I will be sure to check it out! I have been looking for good movies for a while now, it's always nice to see a highly rated one you haven't seen before

@WillHunting I will keep this very close to my heart.

I think that is really good advice. That is another reason I stopped medication; I think medication prevent you from being comfortable with yourself or proud of yourself for overcoming things. I think the joy and self confidence you gain by overcoming things is one of the most important things on your way to recovery.

I am even paranoid to a degree when it comes to psychologists, medication, etc. because if they would actually solve problems 100%, they would be out of work. But that might be a skewed way of thinking caused by occasional times of pessimism

I personally have stopped taking my medication as well. I do not think they help, I feel like they mask problems that can be solved through other means and are able to change you to levels of which I am not comfortable with sometimes.

Thank you very much, I will write it down right now

@WillHunting You are right about that. I guess I didn't really think about it like that in the context of effectiveness of treatment

It makes me wish selfimprovement is infinite, because the moment you hit the wall with that you have reached the end of to which extend you can control your condition

That is true. I think a big part of severity and symptoms of a mental condition are also influenced by way of thinking, sensitivity, your perception of your internal and external world, how stress resistant you are and one that is overlooked a lot; lifestyle

I wondered because they are advising me to follow that treatment option, but wasn't sure if it helps. I personally do not have any firsthand experience with OCD, but I have read about it a lot and I can imagine it to be a nightmare, especially in certain settings

Do you have experience with EMDR?

I thought it might be too over-the-top

I noticed the excellent thing as well.

I personally don't feel very ready to go on a cruise ship and thinking about leaving the house makes my anxiety levels rise through the roof.. but in my personal experience I think it is the best way to get my life back. I can imagine your case being even worse than mine, though and I honestly wish you the best of luck with my whole heart.

And of course I truly wish you the best. I myself have been diagnosed with PTSD, severe anxiety and agoraphobia and haven't been to school or work in the past 2 years. Knowing how hard it is thinking time slips by and the trapped feeling it creates, and knowing you haven't been able to work on your dreams for the past ten years is awful to say the least.

May I ask you what kind of illness? - If it's not too personal

It hurts me to hear that, honestly.

Oh, could I possibly ask you for one more favor?

I would like to thank you a lot though. A lot of your help with my earlier iteration of my letter helped me on my way of creating a letter I am confident with. I think that is the best gift you could have given me

Only one chance hehe

I want to come off as very professional and want to make sure I have the highest possible chance of succeeding

I agree. However, seeing how English is not my native language, I want to be sure that some of my stylistic choices are not informal or an insult in some way

And yes that makes sense!

but I am not sure

I think that might be a weak opener to a pretty strong letter (in my opinion)

The only thing I am left insecure about is the beginning of "My name is..."

Do you personally think this letter is an improvement over the other one?

Seeing how it's the Holland America Line I think it makes sense

And yes, I think using American spelling and punctuation is better, even though I prefer the British English spelling and punctuation

And I cannot believe I did not see some of these mistakes even after reading it through multiple times

Thank you very much for the heads up on 'you and me' and 'you and I'. I really wasn't sure which one was correct, even after Googling.

This is what I have now :-)
