Hi Cookie,

Welcome to the forum. Will it go away completely? No, it won't, however; you can get it to the point of a near non-existance within your life, providing you control your lifestyle a little, so you have reduced stress, anxiety and reason for depression to set in.

Once controlled, you will get minor spouts of symptoms come through at times, but they are exactly that, minor, and easily controlled again. Is it easy? Well... I certainly didn't walk any lovely rosy path to get to that point. It is hard work, mentally challenging, sometimes physically exhausting from the mental strain, but very achievable to see good results in six months, vast improvement over twelve months, and pretty non-existant after two or more years, providing you maintain a healthy lifestyle that fits around your PTSD to some extent.
