    I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for helping me get through yesterday. I know you all know how hard it is. I had my intake appointment this morning and they said yes you have ptsd. Is it bad when after you finish your story the intake specialists says "wow"

    Thank you and thank you. I like fb. It It also really sucks because you can see when someone is just flat out ignoring you or all the other stuff you'd be better of not knowing. And it's not like we're random friends. We've been close friends for years

    It sucks and it's kind of heartbreaking. And after being heartbroken every day for 20 years by my now dead husband I don't know how much more I can take. And quite frankly I'm angry right now. No offense meant

    How do you deal.with the fact that those who said they'd be there for you (friends and family) seem to.be absent when you reach out to them. Some I've known for 20 years and you're left feeling all alone as you go through your struggles

    Sufferer Trying To Figure Out Who I Am At 40

    I am still struggling so much in dealing with what happened to me. In response to kwanygirl (I hope I spelled that right) no my oldest son is not harassing me any more. I think it was his natural response to the terrifying experience of having his dad attack his mom and then kill himself. In a...

    Survivors Guilt And Very Low Self Worth Image

    I'm Not sure this is in the right forum or even where to begin so I guess I'll just jump right in. One year ago I left my husband of 20 years. He was mentally verbally and emotionally abusive. After I left he tried to rape and kill me and shot and killed himself in front of me. We have a...

    Hi all. I think I have ptsd. I haven't been to a therapist yet but my primary care doctor thinks I do. One year ago I left my husband of 20 years because he was very emotionally verbally mentally abusive. He never laid his hands on me although he punched the wall next to my head a few times...
