If I understand you orginal post correctly your problem is lack of concentration and being tired ALL the time.
Welcome to the club. I don't know if you are on medication, but I am. That is one
cause of the exhaustion. But Marlene is correct. Living with this IS exhausting. The
result of this is lack of concentration.
It took me a very long time to accept the nap thing. Took mom even longer to accept.
She was concerned that I was "over medicated" untill I sat her down and explained this
to her like my doc explained to me. The "old me" (pre PTSD) is in a battle with the new me (Post PTSD) to be and live like I use to. Can't and won't ever happen. Hence the
complete exhaustion we go through.
I have come to treasure my naps, but the concentration thing still makes me crazy.
I some times think I have that thing--alzheimers----! But it is just a result of this
little inconvience called ptsd.
Sleep my friend, enjoy the naps and WRITE THINGS DOWN. You will be happier if you
give in to these 2 things. |
