To be honest, I'm not entirely sure what to put here that doesn't sound melodramatic.
Call me RC. I currently live in Japan, which is where my delayed-onset PTSD was diagnosed two years ago after a pretty spectacular breakdown. I was on medication (sleeping pills and Paxil) and then got off of the medication when I returned to the US. Now I'm back in Japan and relapsing and am back on medication. I don't think counselling is going to be an option for me, both because my insurance doesn't cover it and because although I speak Japanese, there's something like a filter between my emotions and what I'm saying, and I don't think it'll be very effective to do counselling like that. So, I'm here. To try and take control of my life before I really screw up something important.
There are very few people in my life that I feel like I can talk to about this, and some of those people have a lot of things going on in their own life, so I don't want to bother them most of the time. I'm here to find people to talk to, as well as people to listen to. Let's try to get through this together?
