I think for me there is some relief in reading other threads that describe what I'm going through at times. I can get answers to my own thoughts by reading other people's posts.

I don't know anyone in real time who has PTSD so it's nice to come here and share experiences and know that most people here understand why I feel insane without an in depth explanation.

I like to share my experiences with others because it helps me to release my frustrations through writing, which is a form of my creativity and self expression. I'm unable to do this with my family and friends.
