Thank you for divulging your personal experience and being honest.I was not in a war or prison. I have PTSD from 8 years of divorce and custody court. After 15 years, I can manage with meds & determination. I can walk by a court house and talk to attorneys. Still haven't been inside a courtroom. But I am working on it every day! Again, thank you!
The high alert is what ppl don’t understand. It’s not just nightmares and bad thoughts, it’s being rewired to always be on alert, trouble relaxing and falling asleep, and the sound of calmness which seems unusual where as to most ppl it’s peaceful. Been a career firefighter for the past 2 decades, I lift weights a lot and travel as much as I can, it helps keep on the up and up. Self destructive habits unfortunately claims the livelihood of may ppl
My PTSD is from domestic violence and my current partner is paying for my ex's abuse. I try not to but the flashbacks are the worst for me
Yes the hypervigilance is a horrible part of it
cPTSD from almost 2 decades of being trans without even realising it due to my autism (that caused cPTSD on its own…)
Despite constantly wanting to end myself and being miserable, I didnt see how I could be suffering from (c)PTSD. I mean there are people that "really earned it", right?!
Well, my psychiatrist shattered that delusion.
Big hugs 🖤🌻
