You have taken the first step on a difficult journey.

I share your experience and understand your frustrations. Many frustrations you have described is the consequence of PTSD. Eventually it will smooth out and not be so disruptive but it takes time, counselling, and patience.

The most important aspect is taking care of yourself and needs one moment at a time regardless of the use of medications or others beliefs. You and your therapist design the best fit program for you! Give yourself down time and warm fuzzies (tea, walk, hot bath, naps... etc) and Celebrate each accomplishment no matter how small.

The forum is here to listen and understand your frustrations. It is a tool for you - use it carefully and purposely to ease your journey. We have all walked your road and are on your road at different points.

Never forget to take care of you! You are your best resource!
