You Know You Have PTSD When...

[rjtransient]

• When you forget your current student address while filling out a form, which makes you feel like an idiot, then you feel guilty and apprehensive because you realize this makes you look suspicious, and later on you feel irritated with yourself for feeling guilty when you haven't done anything wrong.
• When you're walking home in a perfectly good mood, and you're idly thinking about whether or not you really could take off across the lawn and jump that fence.

You know you have PTSD when...............

You are leaving your hotel for your next destination and ask the desk clerk for directions, check the GPS, verify it against the map (in case the GPS isn't updated and the desk clerk is wrong) and still end up managing to get lost.

You know you have PTSD when...............

You have been feeling better for a few days, people are starting to notice and comment on how well you seem. You can't put a name on how you feel - Is this happiness? It is so long since I felt like this, but it is good.

You know you have PTSD when;

• You and your friend can't play 'Bunco' without you having to ask EVERY ROUND 'what round are we on?'
• You are looking forward to the day when you have just ONE major symptom you're working on
• When you keep asking your loved ones 'haven't I told you this?'

When you waste an hour shouting "Who is it?" because your landlady won't answer who she is and you won't answer the door unless you know who it is. :confused:

Your stats professor asks you to send your homework forward and you pass up an EMDR information packet by mistake.
