Understand AI use at MyPTSD: all AI use is explained in our AI help page. AI use is by choice here. It exists if you want it, but does nothing unless you choose to use it.
I'm still working on it for now but I'll certainly let you know if I do find something that helps. I did order a white noise machine so hopefully that'll work. I have noticed that having the washing machine going when I go to bed helps cover up the extra noises but that's just because my washing...
That is a damn intense job man good for you for real being able to do something like that. I'm sorry you hit a deer though :( that pushes a lot of people off the edge. I'm glad you are physically ok or well atleast alive though deer accidents are messed up. I live up in New Hampshire and it's...
I wouldn't be super worried about celexa I was taking it for a few years and it's really mild. It's similar to zoloft if that helps? I'd be more concerned that it could be to mild for you. Have you taken any anxiety/depression meds before? I'd say out of the few different meds I've been...
I deff hear you there my sleeping habits are just crap. I stay awake for a day or two sometimes or I just wake up every hour on the hour it's a mess. I have been taking a vitamin supplement recently called Valerian root which seems to help. It doesn't make me tired but when I do fall asleep I...
What brand white noise machine do you use? I've been browsing online for one and there's a billion. Hmm maybe if I get a few of those rug like tapestries that'll work. The insulation between the condos is just super crappy unfortunately I can legit hear her coughing if I'm in the living room and...
If you ever feel like you want to talk I'm always happy to listen. I think ptsd is just one of the harder mental things to deal with because so much of it is indescribable and people without it just make you feel crazy regardless of how good their intentions are. So far though it seems like this...
Thank you very much ^-^ Everyone I've spoken to so far has been very kind. But I suppose with everything everyone on here has dealt with empathy for others in similar situations is a prerequisite.
Thank you so much I really appreciate that. I actually feel really optimistic about joining which is weird for me. I'm kinda afraid to be hopeful but I am anyways. I think talking to people here could really help me in a significant way.
Sometimes that helps though i can't seem to sleep with headphones in I always end up pulling them out. I'm thinking maybe a white noise machine might work though or a loud fan. But I have to say because of the way the condos are set up with their lack of dividing insulation I can hear a lot from...
Hello, my name is Carolyn and I'm 26. I've never really been very open about my ptsd beyond generalized snippets with few exceptions and I usually regret it when I do. I'm not great about talking about it with therapists because I just don't know or trust them and it's not like when you talk to...
Thank you so much for replying and being so kind hearted I really appreciate it. It helps knowing I'm not the only one that feels that way and I mean logically I knew that but it helps hearing it all the same. I just don't feel comfortable talking to anyone that's in my life about it either they...
This is my first posting so I apologize in advance for any errors. I live in a condo and I can hear every little or loud noises my neighbor makes. Even though the logical part of my brain knows there's a 99% chance that it's ok and it's just my neighbor and her dogs I can't stop myself from...
