New Here
I'm a recreational scuba instructor, did a body recovery in 2014, among other childhood related issues. I've been kept up a lot of nights, addiction issues. The nightmares and flashbacks have gone away a bit since I've started prescription meds, seems like other things have surfaced, anxiety attacks, dissociation.
Just want some one to chat with, maybe someone can help
 
@scubarr welcome! You have come to the right place and will learn so much.

I dissociate a lot as well. I wish I could stay that way to not feel. What happens when you dissociate?

Have you seen a therapist? My therapist is the one who told me I dissociate.

Glad the meds are working somewhat for you.

You are not alone. Continue reaching out and reading the forums. One of the best articles I have read is about PTSD Cup. Have you seen it?
 
Welcome :hug:

There is plenty of us here, so you should be able to find someone, just look around :)
