From late November to Mid January I struggled with this because i went through a major depressive episode. What I did was ate a small meal when I finally did remember to eat/felt physically up to it and I feel you should do the same BUT you should also set a schedule and stick to it, perhaps set...
Thank you for the advice. I'm going to start doing that until I can be around people in public every day (like a job which I'm looking for) I need to realize that not everyone will either verbally or physically assault me just for existing like they did in high school (I was generally known as...
I'm going to cut to the chase here. Due to being the subject to some of the very worst of human nature (literally surpised I haven't been murdered yet); that being said, I've noticed the past two months I've been increasingly timid. I live in a hot state but I dress practically like a nun when...
Okay so a former friend of mine turned out to be a vindictive c*nt and basically had a mental breakdown, blaming his problems on me mere days after saying none of it was my fault, I'm on my period really bad and you ladies know how THAT goes, and yesterday my Rottie Stormy who I had since I was...
I could understand that, but it's the mix of anxiety that's throwing me off. And the dissociation and the fact that now every time I have a panic attack every textbook symptom of PTSD shows its self due to the fact I've gone months without therapy

Hello everyone. My name is Shadow and I am nearly 20 years old. I've had PTSD since I was 14 but have had anxious and depressive tendencies all my life. It was undianosed until I was 17, but the signs were there since 14
Depression runs in my family, Atleast on my mama's side. I came here...
I do that too, but it's more or less trying to shrink myself or curl into myself in the face of a perceived threat. I go into straight-up Bert the Turtle mode hahaha -laughs at own self-
I feel this pretty much to a T, especially in school. I try to not stand out much at all, and I'm constantly hyper-vigilant and trying not to provoke anyone. From the moment I step in, to the moment I get home, my body remains in what I like to call "You're in f-cking danger" mode. Even when I...
This actually makes a lot of sense, due to the fact that School is a major trigger for me.
I don't feel very safe there due to my fear of people and the knowledge that anyone could do something to me at anytime.
It's not very rational because there are teachers, staff, and friends that could...
