    I currently see one myself, I quite like her and I find her very supportive. I know what you mean by so-called friends. I don't make any effort in making friends. However I do deal with severe PTSD related illness which many times have been life threatening. I started to see the CMHT myself since May this year because I was close to allowing myself to die from giving up living after a flashback.

    My knee locks uwhen I’m in a chair and when I get up expecting to take a step, I fall and have to do the whole time consuming manual straightening it out until it pops thing... BUT I’ve had no injuries in the past AND it comes with no pain, it just randomly locks when it’s less than 90 degrees and I don’t know why Stats 6’1” 156lb (69kg) (underweight) Age 20 It’s got me worried because I keep on hearing “meniscus tear” but I’m 100% sure I’ve had n injuries, and I think I’d notice some kneee pain in the past if I had... it’s bizarre and an inconvenience

    This happened to me the other night I was stuck for 1.5 hours in the same position because I couldn’t unlock it 😩 mine makes a real loud popping noise when it’s popping back into place. It is damage to the LCL Lateral Collateral Ligament. I have never had any sporty experience or a knee injury that could result into Ligament damage so I don’t know how on earth i done that. I am going to see a GP and ask for a referral to a Physiotherapist because I’ve read up untreated joint/ligament/cartilage damage can lead to osteoarthritis.. hope you all find peace with your locking knees

I wish people would leave me alone and stop asking questions about why I'm acting wierd again and not explaining myself clearly about how I feel and why I'm so messed up when I'm having a dissociation episode. I think I'll send this video to my friends and family, so I don't have to keep explaining my madness over and over again to new people.

    I get this sometimes too. The easiest way I’ve found to fix it is just sit down in a chair and then kick my leg straight as fast as I can. It hurts for like a second then sets back and the pain is gone. Kinda like ripping a bandaid off rather than peeling it slowly. I’m finally seeing a doctor about it after this has been happening occasionally for years, got a referral to an orthopedic surgeon. My primary doc says in minor cases where it doesn’t fully dislocate most people can repair it with physical therapy.

    If you be really gentle and move your leg kind of to the side not straight out and just keep trying to get it back to normal it won’t hurt so bad. You still risk locking it again but it’s way better than doing it the fast way

    Aw no! Sorry you get the same. I didn't realise so many people had it! I didn't fix it unfortunately but I had some physio which means it happens much less now. It's about strengthening the muscles around the joint. So it's worth getting referred to physio if you haven't already :)

    I feel your pain my right knee pops out of socket when walking. And two nights ago i went to straighten it and it popped and wont go back in so its stuck in bent position. And its the weekend. Then last night popped a second time even harder and bent even more so i called the doctor i got to see him in the morning him and physical therapy are going to place me on a hard surface place books upon my knee and pressure and pop it straight again im so not looking forwards to this. Then i have to see the surgeon for a knee replacement. Something i tried to hold off from doing since i just had the other leg done less than three months ago. It bites.

    I'm so sorry I only just got back to you about this! I hope you've had some help by now. My GP at the time referred me to a specialist orthopaedic physiotherapist. I mentioned hypermobility in my other joints too. My fingers lock sometimes, and my collarbone and ribs pop out too (I didn't even know it was possible!). After an examination and some physical tests, the ortho physio diagnosed me with Hypermobility Syndrome. x

    Hi there. I"m sorry to hear you are struggling so much with this. I think it's a good sign you are able to not only talk through it, but make and post a video as well. I understand it's hard to talk on the phone when you don't know what to expect. I recently joined a chat group for "spoonies". They have one chat group for under age 25 and one for 25 and older. If you are on tumblr, I would be more than happy to send you the post with a link to the chat group. It's helped a lot because there are different channels for different discussions (happy place, dark thoughts, advice, general chatting). Everyone is so nice and understanding and sometimes even really helpful with advice. :) I hope you get to feeling more like a happier medium version of your self real soon. <3

    Hey! Good to hear from you. Sounds like you are working hard to work through this. I can understand anxieties about giving up trying to get help. If it comes down to it, just try your best to explain what you think you need help with and if you have to, say the words that you aren't even sure where you would need to go next to continue getting help. I've learned it's okay to explain when you are lost and confused about what to do next or who to see. If it even comes to that, they will probably understand and will hopefully be able to guide you in the right next direction. I'm happy to see your progress and you already seem more confident in your videos. ♡

    I haven't watched your most recent videos yet (or this one), but I'm wondering if you are still doing the Interpersonal Therapy? If so, how many sessions have you completed, and are you finding it helpful? If not, how come? (Please feel free to link me to the video if you've already explained all this!)

  • @amycullis4487

    Unfortunately I stopped Interpersonal Therapy quite suddenly! It was nothing to do with the therapy itself, but with the therapist. I'd been struggling a lot; in the run up to my last therapy appointment. I opened up to my therapist about a diagnosis I thought I might have, but he showed very stigmatising views of that, and I lost all trust in him. I found he wasn't taking me seriously, when I said I didn't feel safe. After that appointment, I was referred to secondary services. This is the vlog where I explain what happened: kzread.info/dash/bejne/h6OCptCohKbbj5M.html I would love to resume Interpersonal Therapy with a different therapist, but I guess it depends if anyone else in my local mental health team (whether Primary or Secondary care) who is trained in this therapy, is available.

    Thanks for replying. It's very unfortunate that this happened. I hope you are able to continue on with the Interpersonal Therapy at some point. I'm curious, have you ever tried ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy)? Can you explain to me the difference between Primary and Secondary care? Are you in the UK? Thanks for answering my questions. I appreciate it. I may have mentioned, I am a psychology student, but I have also been a client myself several times over the years. Thanks for your videos!
