| | 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. |  | |

| | Hugs back at you cass, I am still in recovery mode myself. But good to get it out.
My hubs said he read something somewhere and it reminded him of me, he said it went something like this... If you have skeletons in your closet you may as well teach them to dance. Made sense to him but it went completely over my head! |

I think it is a when you have bad shit, get it out and accept it and remember/ deal with it by your rules. Keep the memories and remember but in such a way that you have control. Otherwise they bite you on the ass.
Oh, Luke had a look around the other day. going to get him to sign up and actually say hello :smoking:

| | Mouse, remember you are not alone, it took many many 'bad days' before things finally starting looking up for me.
But it is possible, I'm confident you have what it takes to work through this.
At this point you have to take it second by second, don't rush yourself, don't pressure yourself... try to be patient (I know how hard it is) But you need to just work on the basics right now.
I think if you wrote your "troubles" down in a list form, tackle each problem one at a time... I don't know... I just want you to take care of yourself and know that we are here to support you.
Ughhhh... this morning I woke up with a killer migraine (I'm so darn lucky I wore the mouthguard last night, I clenched all night long)
Added a T3 to my morning 'cocktail', so the pounding has slowly become less intense (yes!!) hopefully soon it'll be gone :)
