Sufferer Finally Opening Up About My Ptsd

[saoirserylyn]

I was diagnosed officially around August 2012. After years of struggling with minor PTSD symptoms, I final event happened that year that sent me off the hinge. I am proud of myself for finally finding the courage to talk about my ptsd outside of my close friends and boyfriend (I am lacking a family that is supportive). I also deal with panic disorder (anxiety) and depression.

So, hello everyone and I look forward to getting to know all of you amazing people (I've been peeking around here for quite some time and reading the threads has made me feel comfortable enough to sign up and actually post something).

Glad to see you make that first step, as often times the first post is the most difficult. I hope you find the information and support here helpful to your healing.

Take care.

Yeah. Who ever would have thought you could have social anxiety online. But that's what it felt like when I started posting on here.
