Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now.

Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year.

Default Why Am I Always Stressed?
I just don't know why, but recently my emotions have taken a turn for the worse. I am stressed-out 24-7! Boredom brings stress, being around people brings stress, being alone brings stress, trying to go to bed brings stress, trying to relax brings stress, , watching television brings stress,...I get stress from everything! I feel a constant pressure on me, a pressure that tugs on me and won't let me go! I don't know how, I don't know why, but I do know this: there must be a reason I have all this stress, and there must be a way to get rid of it. This stress is humming my head I cant bare this any more. Things are getting worst and worst. Help me please

What can anyone say? This is just par for PTSD when you have issues that need to be finished with. As you get closer the eaiser it gets. The more you try to force those things mentioned the more stress and counter productive they are.

i know its hard but try to think of the positives of doing those things instead of the negatives and see how that goes.
if you think of good things that cane happen you tend to focus on those more than the bad.
maybe try some relaxation tapes to listen to aswell.

I need to practice what I preach but exercise helps alot. Motivation is always a problem. You on any meds right now ? Beta blockers and calcium channel blockers are used for the symptoms but as I've found out they are not a cure. Counseling is a must
