In my case, I feel I need something else than just talking with my T. I feel that I need to talk with some people who are through similar stuff as I am - so a support group (which unfortunately is really hard for me to find one). Maybe that solution would work for you, if you aren't sure the...

Hey, sorry, that I'm answering so late, working and studying are taking most of my time recently. About my job I can say it's great (comparing to that what I was afraid of). Usually it forces me to focus on my tasks what really helps with PTSD.

I feel that I should write something after a month of my working. Especially, there are some stuff to write about... I had my first panick attack at work. Now I'm scared to go to my work tomorrow. I was trying so hard to make that place to give me calm. I do really like what I do there and I do...

As I promised, I'm writing after my first days at my work. And I must say, it is nice, I wasn't even that nervous. I tried to make myself believe, it's going to help me in my PTSD and not be next reason to stress. I think the mission completed :D Of course, it was just a couple of days but it...

Well, my main problem is that I didn't get PTSD due to one exact incident. So I can feel awful constantly because everything can make me stressed - I can get a little panick attack in any moment (hopefully I know now how to deal with them, so they aren't such a problem instead of making me very...

It'd be really nice :) I really appreciate it :) Of course I don't say that my problem is the worst thing from PTSD but I wanted to see someone else's expierience because I thought that many people could(can) have such a problem.

I know what you mean and right now I'm able to distinguish the stress which is totally normal before any new situation (and I also feel it from time to time now) and the stress which is caused by PTSD. I try to meditate and do breathing exercises (unfortunately I still can't do it regularly)...

I hope that just starting the work will help but I'm so tired because of PTSD. I'm so tired sometimes that I cannot focus on anything and I get nauses, head ache and little vision problems. On the other hand, some of my tiredness passes while I'm focused on something. But I don't see any rules...

I'm going to be a business analyst in a bank. The work place and people seem to be nice, my feelings are more general, they don't depend on type of job at all.

Hi there, I'm starting my first job next week and I'm so scared because of my PTSD. Since I'd got it, I've been afraid that I won't be able to work normally. When I was studying I knew I could just not take part in some classes or just go home ealier if I felt unwell. Now I won't be able do...

As it has been already said, I also find vit. B and magnesium very helpful. That and vit. D (with vit. K2) are the only things I take. But even that makes me feel little uncomfortable.

It is nice to read that there are so many people who deals with PTSD without any meds. I am really scared of taking any meds, I am sometimes even little afraid of taking suplements...

I do not feel my memories from the beginning of my PTSD, I just know what was happening (for these few months) as I learnt it by heart. And I do not want to remember it but very often (even if I do not want to) I think of the time when I was too afraid of going outside my apartment and now I so...

Thank you all for replying. It is nice finally to meet people with the same problem and at the same time I am really sorry you have it. On the other hand, I have to say, it is little terribly to read that it can be that horrible for the rest of my life (I forgot to write it, I am 23). So many...

I were surprised because there wasn't one situation or accident which could cause PTSD. My therapist said that there had been much too much stress in my life. And because there was no exact cause, it is harder for me to understand and maybe accept it.
