Hi,
I just found this site yesterday and I have learned so much about PTSD! I can't believe that other's have the same symptoms that i've been so ashamed of and have kept to myself for so many years. I am a sexual trauma survivor with PTSD. As you all know living with PTSD is very dificult and although I have been in group therapy none of the things I've read here was discussed in group. I just moved to a safe place and could relate to one of the success stories and now I understand that what I'm going through is alright. In the past I suffered from hearing voices and now because of this site I know that it is one of the symptoms of PTSD. You guys have no idea what a relief it is. I just learned how to drive and I'm going thru some serious fear of driving and I've read posts about that too. All I can say with tears in my eyes is .... Thank you all! Now I know I'm not crazy... Thank you!
