Putsch hysteria
New Here
Hello folks, 24 year ptsd sufferer, only diagnosed 3 or 4 years back, intensely suffered through the years as per this living nightmare of a problem.
I've joined this forum because I want to learn more of what others have tried to accomplish ways of living better, not truly for me, but for the family that sticks loyally by me, yet puts up with the crap that comes out my mouth and the furious mood swings.
Also along with the fury n anger my main problem is social anxiety, I gave up on the general population long long ago, I've lost around 30 to 40 jobs probably in total, I've kept any chance of new friendships at arms length and that's the same length I've kept old relationships too.
I'm very accoustummed to living this way now, and it only bothers me slightly. I've accepted my illness and all it has become of me, but I refute to stop trying to better these anger issues, issues that have been dramatically worsened by the ongoing stress of corona virus. Wow, this year's blew my mind stress wise and I'm sure everyone here would agree likewise themselves.
I've had 2 sessions of psychology counselling cbt, and prescribed beta blockers to calm the anxiety, which I must say probably saved me from suicide. I've been urged to try some other medications, but I'm not keen... Citralopam and mitrazepine have been tried before and both just made me feel weird on top of my usual feelings, no help at all, in fact the mitrazepine nearly messed me up worse than I already was.
Which brings my question, can anyone share positive stories about ptsd medication they've successfully tried?.
Also, if anyone would like advice or to question me on my dealings and findings over the years, then I'd gladly share my knowledge with them..
Thank you for reading my intro, and hopefully helpful advice can be traded both ways. Wish I found this site years ago.. Cheers
