I totally freaked out during sex again. I either feel really distant or like I'm being abused again even though my boyfriend is very loving and caring. It's so frustrating! I am so depressed afterwards too. I had been doing well for a while untill recently.

My PTSD is more related to sexual and other types of abuse but I'm kind of interested if your ok with that. Do you know of any support groups in the MN area?

I live in Elk River, MN and have had a very hard time finding any support groups or anything like that. Although I am so happy I found this place! I'd be willing to drive pretty far for anything like that. I go to Alateen meetings sometimes which is somewhat helpfull, but it's not a place I feel...

Thanks for your input it was very helpful, and thank you for not being judgemental :-)

I feel good about my relationship but I wanted to know what others thought. I am 18 and my boyfriend is 39 I know it's a big difference but we get along well and he's supportive and loving and has never been abusive.

Thanks for replying. Yeah I am in therapy and it has helped but I can't afford much. The one I see now is great though, I got lucky. She works at the teen clinic I first went to to get on birth control because I was scared I'd get pregnant from what was going on. Although I have an extremely...

Thank you! I don't think I'd be talking about it this freely if it wasn't for the anonymity of the site.... I'm so glad I found it it seems safe and caring so far. I even have such a hard time talking to my counselor that I email her what's really bothering me because I can't seem to get...

I'm wondering what has helped people here with dealing with their PTSD. After I was diagnosed I worked with relaxation and just trying to talk about it, which I am horrible at except in a way like this where it's pretty anonymous. Nothing has really helped much I realize nothing will be a quick...

Before I go for the night I also wanted to mention that I am still in contact with my mother and father and it's making things very tough. My mother is currently in treatment but it hasn't worked for her in the past. Even recently she had me meet her boyfriend and said, "He's nice but he might...

I have a hard time talking to her though... I really like her as a counselor but It's hard for me to talk to anybody about the stuff especially in person

My counselor is a licensed clinical social worker and she works together with a doctor who presecribes my meds.

Everyone is different (and I'm not a professional) so I woun't say if your doing the right thing but it amazes me that you're being so suportive and positive about it. I have had trouble with my boyfriend because of my PTSD and my behaviors and troubles dealing with everyday things. All I can...

I'm so glad I found this site I have been having a hard time lately. I was sexually abused since I was very little and although I finally am in a good and loving relationship I have flashbacks during sex and often start feeling like I'm being abused again. I start crying and pushing him off. The...
