You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Gadgie]

Does anyone in here go to group therapy for their PTSD? I only ask, because when I was receiving therapy (a few years ago ) I asked if there was a group therapy I could join.

She told me that there wasn't enough people with PTSD to warrant having a group session?

I find that hard to believe, as while I was waiting to go in one time, I met a fireman coming out, and he told me that there a few, in his station alone who were having therapy.

He also knew a few police personnel, who were friends of his, who were going there for therapy as well?

When you want to overdose because everything is crashing in and around you.

When you want to overdose

It would be crashing AND you'd have to deal with the overdose's effect. It's not a help.

You Google to find out what everyday objects can be used as weapons

Eventually: You google all the other and intended uses of them, because it's those you're in the dark on. :D:banghead:

The only thing you're told in that line? Is to run away from this therapist, because they have f*ck all idea about PTSD.

@Cashew I said I wanted to do it, not that I was going to do it. Thanks for your concern though. Very, very, very angry and need to let it out.

When you almost apologize to a nurse at your doctor's office when she asks you if you've used your inhaler yet and you have to tell her you haven't used it yet.

When you want apologize & say f*ck you, run & stay, shut up & keep talking all within 10 seconds and just nod your head because you never know what's the "appropriate" thing to do in any given moment.

When you can understand the posts that other folk have posted.

Don't read "Detective Conan" (I think it's "Case closed" in English) then...you will get a total paranoia from that manga series...:roflmao:

When just asking little questions is a huge obstacle and you don't feel worth of even verbalizing it. :sick:

When... Nope. I most definitely don't have PTSD. And I also didn't need the loneliness of the woods in the middle of the week to restart, because people were pissing me off, down to very cherished & reasonable & we're-copathetic, people.

I just love trees that much. And I wasn't in central Africa half of the time mentally, either. It's all about nature. I don't have PTSD.
