cielito,
it's important, no, it's very important that you find a way to be "in the world" the more you can. it's also for this reason that i told you to attend some course: building something inside you while you are between people, even if they don't know about your suffering and about what appened to you, helps you to have more "sense of the reality". more, it's important that you create some relations, even if they are not relations of real friendship.
sense of reality is the most important thing in mental health, don't forget it.
and your mind need human contact, too.
don't desperate and look for joy...:kiss:

I cant hepl felling that im left out and forgotten
i dont have any friends at all left
and i have to have a person with me all the time am outside becaouse of my
attacks i have and i cant controll them at all
and the police arent werry understanding here at all and always think that im drunk or druged
so i have someone with me all the time when i leave the house
this is so humilyating that i have to have someone by my side
and it makes me feel less like a person
im tired and scared
 
Yeah the dreaded 'ALONE' feeling, I've been feeling it a lot lately too. I never was one to have many friends, even before my trauma. Now I have none, I have some family that are close to me and my hubby, but I still feel alone and misunderstood. :dontknow: Hang in there and take care of you.

I am unable to leave my house most of the time so I understand your frustration with
needing to have someone with you when you go out. I also understand the fear.
The feeling of no control over your life is a frightening thing too

Alone, an awful feeling---I know it well----I found that I had caused my own isolation
I am still alone with no friends, but now, with therapy, I understand why. It does not hurt so much when you know why!

I remember when I was at my lowest level. It caused me to seek help and discover
the cause of my feelings.

Just the fact of knowing "What" was wrong, actually made me less anxious. I was able to put a name on what was wrong with me. That in itself was a healing.

While you have no asked for it, I am going to give you my opinion. Seek help. Talk to a professional. They can help and do! Once I opened up to my T> amazing things began to happen to me and my thinking and my life.

I am still a sufferer but knowledge is power and just knowing what my problem is has helped me.

Hi
I have pushed just about all my friends away. I have a couple that have stuck with me. They left me alone when i needed it and there when i need them and i hope im a good friend to them as well.
Im bringing so many memorys out with my T at the moment and nobody understands what im feeling and that makes me feel very lonely
 
friends.... I have my Marine Brothers I served with and they are all scattered across the world. Sometimes we talk on the phone and maybe a short visit, but other than that. No friends for me.

I have a Wife and 6 children, no time for friends really.

Having PTSD and Major Depression with a house of chaos I'm lucky not to be totally insane..

For me I think its a trust issue and having someone who can relate to what I have been through. Regular people tend not to understand.
 
wow! This thread hits too close to home. I think everyone's pretty much covered my thoughts about this. Right now I'm still trying to understand my thoughts, emotions, etc.... but I have been pushing people away from the beggining leaving only myself to, well, myself. Never really had much of a friend in the first place, always kept to myself. But now it's like total isolation, except when I go to work. I've become especially less talkative.
