    Not Wanting To Leave Home

    This has probably been covered countless times, but is it normal to not want to leave my house? I really tried to get out more in the beginning by going to the mall or going skating or taking long walks, but recently, I just feel really anxious/scared of leaving home. Too many people and...

    Loud Noises

    Sorry for wasting another thread, everyone, but loud noises and commotion really gets me upset and makes my anxiety kick. I don't know when this started, but I can't stand too much going on around me anymore. My family (God bless them) have absolutely no inside voice when they speak and I find...

    Being Alone Forever

    I have this feeling that I'll be alone forever, or until I die. I see happy families in real life, on tv, and this forum and I think. And feel so sad. I'm very happy for everyone, and hope that they appreciate each other to the fullest, but for me personally, I've never really had a real...

    Opened Up For The First Time

    I'm still hanging out at my best friend's house. We watched something that triggered me and he saw that I was upset. So we went to his room and I finally let it all out. I told him everything. He listened. Reassured me that I would get through this and that I would be stronger. And if I ever...

    Ups And Downs

    Maybe I'm just really confused and lost at the moment. I'm sure I am. Is it "normal" to have ups and downs? Really steep ups and downs? One minute, one day, I feel pretty okay. Pretty good about myself. I love going out and enjoying myself, but then the next, I feel completely low. Like a...

    Thrashing Around?

    This hasn't happened to me since earlier after the trauma, but I still thrash and swing or my muscles tense up and cramp really bad when I jolt awake sometimes. My heart races. Like a couple of hours ago. It was so scary. I sob for a while after it happens. Has this happened to anyone else?

    Fighting Against Myself

    I don't know what to call it. I want to break free from the fear. I feel the need to fight back against my darker half, my negative half. I feel the need to conquer and overcome it. But it feels pointless. Futile. Every day. Every hour. I'm swinging at my negative side, yelling at it to get away...

    Comic Books

    Anyone else here into comic books? Of any sort. I'm 100% certain there are. I've been into them since I was a little kid, but could never really afford them. Or know where to buy them. But lately I've been building up my collection. Although, I prefer graphic novels. Single issues don't cut it...

    Anxiety Hours

    Okay, when all of this began, I would get hit by anxiety and fear hardest around noon all the way to five or 6pm. Then for a while, it was 5am to 7/8am. Right now, my peak anxiety hours are from 9am to around 2/3pm. I don't know what's going on or why my body keeps messing with me. I'm so scared.

    I've Just Been...

    I've just been in a real bad place for the last week or so. The 28th was the anniversary and ever since then I've just been in bad shape. I went from 60 to 0 like nothing. A real whirlwind of emotions. I think I went from anger- just pure hatred towards the guy responsible, overwhelming me. I...

    Sufferer A Little Over A Month In

    I don't know if this thread belongs here, but hello everyone, my name is Ti. I'm 20 years old. After only a few sessions with two different psychologists so far, my school's Mental Health Counselor and a regular... "outside" one, they both concluded that I'm suffering from "a trauma". PTSD and...
