You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Ronin]

When ^ makes you laugh. The good laugh, life's good, laugh.

The therapist commune you wouldn't mind going to, unlike all the other communes you were wished at! :D

 

[Anrish]

When you get angry about people who told our chief that they get therapy because of depressions and they get treated like a fragile egg...and they only care about themselves and whatever happens it's never their fault and they are always the ones who are treated badly...because you struggle to live and to live with others and support others and you know that you also make mistakes...and you still have to be cautious around these...people.

 

[Ronin]

Lemme guess, they're all males, who had a few down days, and suddenly are 'depressed'.

:facepalm::banghead:. :hug: My friend. Hang in there.

@Cashew

One is a male colleague, the other one is female. ...she's highly paranoid and always complains about too much work but still has the time to check on everyone else so she can say "They got less than I did!"...:banghead: ....the male one is...uhm...I fear he was born without selfconfidence but he's not even trying to really work on it or try something. He's a nice guy...but...I get so angry when I see how my chief treats them...:meh:

Thank you for your support! :hug:

When you look up, and wonder, after all this work, who the hell you are and does any of this have any meaning whatsoever.

 

[Ronin]

When you figure ^ means you've processed heckuva lot, because now your mind has time for philosophy :D

That or you had one too many drinks. But you don't drink, currently, so philosophy and good signs.

 

[Friday]

When the best dream you've had in ages still somehow manages to end up with you getting your ass kicked, in the rain.

Really, tho, I need to get back to sleep so I can finish this dream. It was, is, an awesme one.

 

[Ronin]

Shoo, go sleep Friday.

I can't go back to sleep after mine, despite weather quite suitable for grief making me sleeepy, so imma watch. You nap.

When SAS survival guide is what makes you grin this wide in the day. It's got English to your herbs, herbs you remember in very messy Congolese.

So many of your memories of very mess situations are all plants & nature.
Being able to study it from a far, in a language that reads 'not alone, some mofo is having your back'? Wonders. :giggle::inlove:

 

[ladee]

@Cashew, you can always find the words... ya, a philosopher, cause I ain't drinkin' !! I like that better than feeling hopeless.. so a philosopher it is !!

 

[Ronin]

@ladee, one of my teachers was like 'All thinking is essentially philosophy. Some times bad philosophy. Some times bad thinking. But that's still better than none thinking' :D So I try to go with that. :D

Other of my teachers told me tuning out and thoroughly not thinking is a needed rest. Not so good integrating that one. I'm easier doped out of senses than dropping into that lair voluntarily. But working on it. :ninja:
