    MVA Waking Up From Accident And Chondritis??

    In regards to memory of my accident, I suffered a mild concussion, but recently when I get my flashbacks, they're not as vivid and seem foggy to me. I don't remember any of what I'm seeing, but it sort of makes sense, but there are still a lot of blanks too. Can this be possible even though I...

    MVA Waking Up From Accident And Chondritis??

    I had a two year old shattered tooth that has been infected and needed a root canal. The ER doctor that diagnosed me gave me that as a possibility, if not the accident, of where I got the chondritis. @JEKBreatheandBelieve and @Kailani I've started to take notice when I get too stressed or...

    MVA Waking Up From Accident And Chondritis??

    I was in a car accident in which I remember hearing the impact, but didn't/don't remember seeing it. All I remember is waking up and being in a dream-like state. I don't really want to go into the accident itself, but I feel like this is a start. I believe I ended up getting Costochondritis from...

    Is It Just Me Or Does Everyone Feel This Way Sometimes?

    If I may ask, what are some of your techniques/skills in dealing with the pent up anxious energy? I've pushed myself to do chores, despite how exhausted I feel, but it always builds right back up! I usually have to wait for the feeling to lessen on its own.

    Is It Just Me Or Does Everyone Feel This Way Sometimes?

    There! I was so bored, but at the same time, uninterested in anything. I was internally frustrated with everything that I almost want to cry. It's not all the time, but boy when it comes up, it drives me crazy.

    Wish I Knew How To Get Over This...

    I'm so sorry that your family doesn't support your the way they should. Don't doubt yourself and don't feel bad for your problems. I'm only finding out about PTSD and the way it can be for people who aren't in the military and how it still affects the same way. Trauma is trauma, regardless of...

    Is It Just Me Or Does Everyone Feel This Way Sometimes?

    It's so hard to describe sometimes. I feel so exhausted, but agitated, or rather just frustrated. I want something to do, but I'm uninterested or unfocused to do much of anything. I tend to grind my teeth and bounce my leg without noticing until someone points out that I'm tense or extremely...

    Did Your Nightmares Start Gradually Or Right After You Had Trauma?

    @seedling I can relate to the blackouts maybe after three months after my trauma. For the first three months, I had vivid nightmares that shocked me awake in cold sweats. After three months, either it was odd dreams or I couldn't remember (the blackouts). After four years I'm having nightmares...

    Sufferer Hello! "if It's Not One Thing, It's Another.

    Thank you for the warm welcome. Now I'm really glad I found this site. I've been managing my symptoms since my accident 4 years ago, but they only keep getting worse. I started therapy in February and it has been great. I'm currently having a difficult time with my psychiatrist who only wants...

    Sufferer Hello! "if It's Not One Thing, It's Another.

    "If it's not one thing, it's another." A run-on saying in my family ever since I was little. My father was raised in a broken home while my mother was raised in a loving one. I have two older siblings and a baby brother who is Autistic. About 20 years ago when I was 5, my father became a veteran...
