Ptsd Forum Vs Facebook

[tired...]

So I have been signed up to ptsd forum since friday... a whole 4 days.

Amazing huh... Considering I have the concentration span of a moth..... oooo look a light ....

Anyhow, my topic this morning is (and because here in the U.K its 4.46am and there is no sign of me dropping off in the near future, I thought I would ask why I haven't checked my facebook in these four days, bearing in mind I do not place any status's on it I don't add any friends that request me or reply to any messages sent ...( ERM.... IS THERE A POINT OF ME BEING ON IT ) Well it is nice to see other people going out having fun being with their family's and poking ... (dont be rude If you thought I didn't mean poke-ing ie facebook :)

On the other hand in the last 4 days I have not been off the ptsd forum.. To be fair I have a lot of time on my hands SO it was either this or look up funeral plans ... I dont wanna lie to you and say I haven't got other things to do, my house is a bloody mess.. anyone up for any free cleaning help .. bring your own rubber gloves and a mask!

In conclusion I have decided that the ptsd forum is now the place to be, maybe to make it more popular with the youth of today it should be called ptsdforum-TwitterBook.

I have just like your post Abstract ... thats not because I like the fact you cant sleep ... its just nice to know I am not the only nocturnal being this evening / night/ morning/ what ever time of day it is.

Hi tired...

I love FB and have a business page on there as well. I have family in the US and friends all over the place so it helps me to stay in touch with people. I do have problems when others plan going out and I know there will be no invite for me but I also use it to advertise my art so it is worth it. I like to read some of the funny stuff that comes up there!

I was on the PTSD Forum all the time when I first joined because I needed to be. Now, I am much better so drop in whenever I want to, to read post and, see how others are doing and offer encouragement. Of course, I have my bad days so post then also. I have problems with concentration too but usually have my e-mail, FB and the Forum open in different tabs at the same time. gets a bit confusing but I manage.

I'm in the UK too, you were not the moth that was flying around my bathroom last night are you? :D

Tired, Welcome to the best place on the planet. Facebook has it's place however I am sure you will find more here.

I wish you success on your journey! My favorite read is the Wiki section. Factual articles of understanding and rising above.

This is me too Crafty Cath, accept I also have slacker on for music.

Like Crafty Cath, I was on this forum all the time in the beginning. More then anything else. I took a brief break from it but I'm back now.

I like facebook to keep in contact with family and friends, as I am usually housebound.

Welcome to the forum! Hope it helps you as much as it has helped me, or even more.
