You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Heather]

You know you have PTSD when you take your 7 y/o to the DDS and you can't remember if she's allergic to any medications but SHE CAN (penicillin). Then the DDS stops asking me the questions and continues to ask my daughter!:p

You know you have PTSD when you click on a thread to read it, leave, click on it again realize you've read it, leave, and click on it again only now you're feeling pretty stupid.

You use the phrase, "Sorry. I haven't had my coffee yet today," to explain your morning mistakes and you don't even drink coffee.

Maybe I should start using this..... Any suggestions for the afternoon and evening? HA!

You know you have PTSD when you try to understand that stupid F**KING WORLD MAP CLOCK and no matter how many times you try YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANYONE IS TALKING ABOUT!!

I have no idea what you are talking about. Seriously.

You know you have PTSD when it takes you a week to learn how to quote a comment and you are so feeling so proud of yourself while doing it only to find out that you still don't know how.

I know I've done it right a couple of times. It just won't stick.

When you just took a Xanax but are not sure if you definitely took it or not. So..You take another (there's no way you are having a panic attack at work again) and you end up asleep in your cube.

The only way you remember your friend's birthdays are when Facebook reminds you.

You know you have PTSD when EVERYONE is a suspect. I swear every man who looks at me in a store is plotting to follow me to my car.

I just had to try again. I'm obsessive that way.

Any suggestions for the afternoon and evening?

How about, "Sorry, my neighbor's dog kept me up all night last night and I'm exhausted."

(I've really got this quote thing down now.)

You know you have PTSD when...the phone rings and the number resembles friends you once knew. You answer excitedly prepared to talk to your long lost friend ... you raise you voice and exclaim KATE and they ask to talk someone else it’s the wrong number. The phone call remains the highlight of your day
