Hiya Spiritofnow

I just thought that i would let you know that i found it huge relief to know i had ptsd as i then realised that i wasnt just going insane. Not to say that i was glad to have it. Not at all. But it has helped me to look for the support i need. I say if you dont know whats wrong you cant fix it.

I have a little story about how i bacame a little more of the person i used to be. My cousellor asked me what i used to be like before the trauma and i realised that i used to wear skirts and didnt anymore. Now i have the confidence to wear skirts again. Not much but a start. I can wear very long skirts but i still cant wear short skirts like i did in my late teens but that isnt such a bad thing with my legs lol.

Anyway try to see having a diagnosis as something positive and please know that it is possible to get the good parts back of how you used to be.

Take care
