Sufferer Hello. I'm Ready To Talk About It.

[Worldwarwhatever]

I have lurked this forum and others but this is the first time that I have ever registered or posted on one. I have finally reached a point in my life where I am no longer able to just ignore my issues or keep them internal.. I have PTSD resulting from various trauma spanning the majority of my life.. This has lead me to issues with addiction, the law, relationships and family. Triggered episodes led me to prison which created a cycle of new trauma and triggering past traumas as well. I have never been able to fully speak about my feelings to anyone besides my wife.. Though some of my issues involve or are the result of situations with her as well so it's difficult. Anyways I am happy to have found this forum and look forward to making some progress and figuring out how to get back to being myself. The old self that I actually loved and miss dearly.

@Worldwarwhatever Welcome to the forum!

I have never been able to fully speak about my feelings to anyone besides my wife..

That is one of the best parts of this forum is being among others that really do understand where you are coming from and what you are feeling.

I find this forum so helpful because sometimes I think it's just easier to talk to strangers then it is with the people in your life. I hope this group helps you on your journey of healing.
