Analogy: My Ptsd Feels Like...

[Keming]

My PTSD is The Mist, but all the monsters are pretending to be people.

 

[mbrady]

Like I swallowed the red and blue pills. Some days I'm fighting to find the truth and unplug from the matrix. But then I find out and want to go back and believe whatever I want to believe.
And some days like I'm Mr. Anderson going through the motions of working with black and white people/sentient programs knowing there must be something more to life. But then I find the something more and can't make the jump. No matter how many times I try.

A wall that never seems to end. Take one layer of bricks down and theres another and another and another.....

 

[Socha]

...like it's a ghost from the past. I've never felt this stable, happy and healthy in my entire life.:)

 

[Nyssa]

Living on an active volcano.

 

[Lionheart]

feels like, such a part of me now, that I would not know what to expect of a life without it.

 

[Lee2001]

A marathon with no finish line!

 

[Deadman]

like I should have had the good graces to die when I should have.

 

[amosmorris]

...digging, slipping, sliding.

Like the experience you get before you're almost about to die, even in a dream. It's that extreme anxiety and fear and not knowing what lies ahead.

I didn't post an analogy because my finger slipped and hit post too early -_-. I would say it's like being sucked from an airplane and hanging on the wing and hugging it for dear life.
