Welcome here, Silent One! I hope this does make a difference for you. It really has for me. I've had PTSD for 12 years and I only just joined this site a couple months ago. It has helped me be real about my health and it has helped me accept that it is real and not just something I made up in my head or a result of being weak-minded. As for me, my mental health has gotten better over time, but since getting PTSD, my physical health has been in decline, no matter the effort I put into keeping healthy. I'm sure all my physical ailments are due to emotional traumas and PTSD effects on the body, so, in some ways, I feel like I'm just getting worse too.
On this site, I'm sure you will find others who will understand what your life experiences are and who will support you as you go through victories and set backs. I hope it makes a difference for you.
