I should probably get a professional for this but I just want some opinions. Not that I don't trust doctors, I feel better if people who are experiencing this can relate/give me some answers.
I also do not know if this is related, but it is something I touch more on in my first post (if you can see that, I'm new to this). I get a strange "arousal" or sensation in my privates when my father comes near me, raises his fist, or touches me. It's not a sexual feeling. It's like a response, since I cannot be aroused or feel sexual attraction. Is that related to PTSD?
So for a while I wanted to know if I had PTSD because of my bad emetephobia. I got confused on phobias and PTSD, but then with the new discovery I was (most likely) molested as a child, I think something is wrong with me. Whenever an adult or person touches me, even if it's my friend or mom, I depersonalize/detach from reality and my schizo kicks in in high gear, or I just float off for the rest of the day. I get very depressed, sometimes anxious, exposed, and suspicious. Sometimes, if I'm having a bad day, I will hallucinate and see people/images of people coming to hurt me for that day.
I just don't know if I got PTSD because I don't have panic attacks when I'm touched or have nightmares, since I have no recollection of my being "molested". (Again, it's too late to physically tell if I was raped as a child. I'm getting checked out soon and will talk to a doctor. For now, it's just a strong hunch.
In all honesty, I don't know how PTSD works because I can't relate or find anything online describing this illness. I've taken tests, but I no longer trust them. I just don't know.
I'm 17 and very confused and troubled.
