Hi everyone,
Well, this is hard for me to write. For the last 18 years always dx with depression. recently went and saw a psychiatrist who dx me with ptsd because of my history. my mom was murdered 18 years ago by a family member. he poured gasoline in my house and set it on fire. i was able to get out of the house without any injuries but unofrtunately my mom wasnt so lucky. i have never been right after that. I am not sure of this dx and I guess I am just looking for some support. Noone has ever even brought this up to me before. Is it possible for me to really have ptsd after all of these years???
