| | Notices | 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. |  | |

My day was better today. I felt good about going to work. But I am realizing the toll the day takes and then to add the 1.5 hr bus ride home. I am fit to scream by the time the bus reaches my stop. At least I got home early today (6:15pm). |

Woke up this morning feeling quite ill. Whole right side of my head and throat in pain and was aching (temporal, eardrum, glands). Husb. home today as son has allergist appt., while I will be in conference with children's teacher. (Normal school appt.) Also, woke up from frightening nightmare, (involving mean biting dog and nice young man changing to deranged, evil and threatening man toward me before my very eyes). Fortunately, my husb. will most often, listen to my nightmares, as he did this morning. Children off to school this morning smoothly, husb. happily busy and myself busy and still in my pajama's. Though sick today, have nic. patch on and haven't smoked...also, finding myself with unexpected joy and much laughter this morning. |

Y&A. I'm glad you're feeling better! I am feeling much better to. I have more energy and motivation. It's weird how I go through little dips like that. I should be thankful they're not huge drops like I used to have.
Hope, I'm glad you laughed today. On the worse days, just cracking a smile takes too much effort. |

I've been sleeping!!!!
2 nights, eight hours a night. Almost feel human.
bro dearest is giving me the creeps. Not that he's doing anything unusual, just my spider sense is tingling.
Other then that, just peachy. |

Great stuff GR... really great news. It will continue getting better the more you heal. A cycle if you want, so you will have nights of no sleep again, but the faster you deal with everything, the faster life returns to some sort of normalicy. |

I am doing okay this morning. I took three sleeping tylenol pm pills last night and got some sleep. Dreamt about my old house (where I did alot of my growing up) again last night. Talking in my sleep about my mother and an old roomate I had my freshman year of college.
I am terrified of making mistakes at work and I was rocked hard yesterday by my fear. Old thoughts came back of I would rather die than make a mistake. Haven't felt that in a while. Why am I so hard on myself? "Past-training," I know. I get my first paycheck in over two months tomorrow. I am excited!!!! |
