You can't help PTSD in 6, or even 12 sessions. What's that about? I'm sorry that happened to you. This is a good place to work through things though, and learn things and heal. I hope to see you around the boards.

It helped me. I was a hot mess when I first came here. I was hospitalized so many times that I can't remember. Now I am functioning. Not high functioning, but functioning.

The Netherlands has a very good reputation for Mental Health Treatment and PTSD in particular. I think the first Therapist you had was very unfortunate that he could not see past the 'classic' symptoms. You are certainly not the first to have PTSD and TBI and he should know that. Difficulties with emotions and feeling can be attributed to either. I do hope you can find another T who can help you better. Perhaps your GP can recommend somebody.?

I have to go back to where they tested me for ptsd for evaluation. If they think i still need help they will send me to someone else probably. I can't go to my gp for this because its work related. My company doc wants me to go to a special ptsd inpatient facility. But i don't want to. I think i'm better off without therapy. Why can't they (docs/therapists) just leave me alone.

i dont know what i want anymore... just want it all to be over. i want to get better, but i don't trus...

I understand the feeling of just wanting to get better and NOW! It's is a process....some people will take longer than others in getting better and maybe some won't get better at all. I have just been diagnosed recently this year with Complex PTSD.Ihave lost all trust with people and people with authority......depression causes us to do things we shouldn't be doing.All I can say is good luck with your journey ,head up,move forward and continue your faith that you will get better. My best wishes and you are not alone
