Sufferer Alone In My Ptsd

[lifeisdifficult]

Not sure what to say, I guess I'm just looking for help and not to feel so alone. I was 16 when first diagnosed with PTSD as a result of my childhood. I have been struggling with it since then, counseling has helped some recently, but the feeling of loneliness has been overwhelming lately and making the rest of the symptoms worse. That's how I ended up here. The anxiety attacks have been the hardest thing to deal with and not too many people I have met understand. I'm nervous about joining, but hoping that it will be beneficial.

Hi. Jump in when you are ready. I did a lot of reading before joining. There are many coping techniques during anxiety attacks that you might find beneficial. Just put in a search. Take what you want and leave the rest.

@lifeisdifficult Welcome to the forum!

One of the great things about this forum is finding a group of people that really do understand what you are experiencing. It definitely helps make a person feel less alone.

Yes, we can relate. I'm going though a tough time right now as well. It's really easy to feel completely alone.
