I'm confused that you have PTSD but no memory of an event, when the event (Criterion A) is part of the diagnosis. Is it that you have factual information but no personal recollection?
You say you have had anxiety all your life. I'm trying to understand so I hope you won't mind me asking questions. Do you mean you remember having anxiety from when you were a very small child? Or since you were 8 years old?
That is a good question & I apologize if I wasn't clear enough. I have no memory nor any factual information. However I have had a very detailed nightmare since the age of 8 which deals specifically with a child being sexually abused. That together with all of my symptoms brought doctors to the ptsd diagnosis.
My anxiety is part of my first memories. I can't say a 100% exactly what age that was... Probably around 2 or 3
