Hi

I was just diagnoses with PTSD two weeks ago along with anxiety and depression. Being a middle aged male, I didn't' seek help because of being so ashamed and too afraid. So all my life I've lived in fear of people, and in, what my psychiatrist calls, a dissociated state, I have sleep problems, anxious dreams, nightmares, and images in my head of past childhood abuse. And huge gaps (years) in my memory. I get so exhausted form the anxiety.., I can't talk with people without shaking, can't concentrate...

Enough said, I don't know if I should be here.
