| | 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. |  | |

| |  A lifetime in a day
I think I just went through my entire life today! My husband tripped over crutches that I will be using after Thursday's surgery. (The third surgery this year) It's scary anytime he trips because he has a muscle disease, has numbness from transverse myelitis, and possibly ms? He had just come back from caring for his parents which I do during the week between work hours. I wrote 4 emails to my therapist( I hope he reads fast) I've been spacing out most of the day remembering the past. Haven't done anything I've needed to do. I even feel wierd writing this because I can't feel it, but I did earlier. I've sat here questioning memories, feeling like hurting myself, and wanting to just die, and then it is all gone. I guess the anger is still there. I just want the past to go away so I can just be here and with my husband like he has been here for me all these years. Am I incredibly strange or do a lot of people do this trying to figure out everything in a day thing? Sorry if this doesn't make sense it's probably anxiety over the surgery.
Hope you all had better days!

Starting to crawl out of my hole.
My mom is in town so I can't hide in my basement.
Went 3 places, and I made it through each one without panicking. |

:loopy: My life here has been rather horrible of late....For several days I haven't been able to access this site or any other for days....Don't know if it's my modem that's a problem or if it's my ISP...I've called my ISP and they said that they had no problems on their computers over the weekend....I called Apple as I have a mac but my son has to call them because he's the one who bought the thing in the first place....I am amazed at the moment to have actually gotton on this site!!!! I have been battling bouts of horrible stomach queasiness and nausea for 2 weeks stemming from my food poisoning incident....My med doc has called in 3 different meds for me to try.....the first 2 did little....but this third one seems to be helping....Today was the first day that I've woken up without the nausea whatsoever!!!!  I will write more later if I can access this site.....KEEPING THE PEACE |

Struggling some with motivation and feelings of impending doom. Was painfully awake all last night without any sleep and my mind focused on past subjects I'd rather just leave alone. Still always frightening to feel at a lack of control of what plays over and over in my mind. Unhappy with myself as I experience PTSD symptoms that I thought were gone, dead and buried. Seriously contemplating given up the cigg's that I've been using to help medicate and immediately replacing them with daily evening and/or daily doses of librium. If I'm going to be addicted to something, may as well make it the lesser of the two evils. Where has all my strength gone. I need God!
