Hi Hoople,
I suffer these symptoms as well, from the lack of pleasure to not being able to plan for the future. Part of my PTSD makes me believe i will die a violent death. I have been on meds for so long, I can barely register anything other than base emotions, and when complex feeling come up, like anger and aggression, or extreme depression or rage, I'm so terrified of losing control, I self mutilate. I do not recommend it. Often times I feel numb, most of the time, when I do, I'm grateful for the break.

There are really good people here, and a lot of great information. I encourage reading up on the info the furum provides, as well as seeking a therapist familiar with PTSD, as there are therapies (is that a word?) like EMDR that can help.

Take Care and God Bless! :biggrin:
