  • Hi. I am usually pretty private on Lemmy but I’ll post about my experience now.

    I was abused by my parents. PTSD has affected me my entire life. I’ve read books and articles extensively on the subject and those helped but what really helped me was finding a good, trustworthy therapist. My condition was so bad, my therapist suggested a psychiatrist instead. I asked if it’s possible to just try therapy first, and the therapist agreed.

    While I knew the beginning techniques for, my therapist was able to see what works and adjust accordingly. Also having a guide to all this, with minimal judgement is a benefit in itself. We were able to define what good mental health was together, which helped me a lot.

    Getting one now, might not help much for the holidays, but this post is for your future. I know it can sound expensive, at least for me it did, but being able to have pockets of peace and more control of my life is worth it.




  • I don’t have a product you are looking for but advice to find a replacement.

    Measure the length of the sticks from button mechanism inside the tank.

    Measure the height of the button from lid to the sticks.

    Measure the hole diameter when you take these out. If your lid is unusually thick, measure the thinkness of the hole.

    Look in the tanks. If there is a gap of the internal buttons more than a few millimeters, measure that too.

    All of these measurements will make find a replacement easier. A lot of the replacement buttons have really short sticks. Watch out for that.
