Sufferer Hello, just found the forum

hello imbroglio. welcome to the forum. i will second @Friday's compliment on your choice of username. as a linguist, it is a rare event when i have to look up a word, but i thoroughly enjoy the thrill when it happens. i will be looking for opportunities to use the word, imbroglio, all day long. ptsd is, indeed, an imbroglio.

getting back on topic. . .

i hope you don't mind if i answer your other post in this post. i have had several institutional level psychotic breaks in my long, hard recovery from child sex trafficking. psychosis is the most isolating phenom i have experienced in my broken life. i have yet to see a one-step method for coming back from the isolation of psychosis. in my own recovery it is a long journey best taken is itsy, bitsy baby steps. those itsy, bitsy baby steps add up faster than it feels while i am struggling to understand WTF is going on.

support helps. support such as can be found right here, in this very community. welcome aboard.
steadying support as you journey. the imbroglio will sort itself at the speed of healing hope.
small steps, big faith and lots of prayer.
 
Thanks to all. I'll try and give a potted history. I'm English in my mid 40's and have had PTSD for most of my life I was bullied at school due to physical and psychological ill health. When I was 16 I was told why I was physically disabled. Years later I found out that that diagnosis was wrong, In that same year 2021 my family imploded which led to a lot of revelations and d@ath threats.

That misdiagnosis led me to become a hermit and waste my life. The family split left me with my heart broken, Put those 2 together and you have the barely functioning mess that is me.
 
Evening all. Called my GP today and have a phone appointment with a mental health triage nurse. To be honest I feel like a failure because it wasnt that long ago i ended therapy

Giving up is failure. Your not giving up so I would say your pre-successful. Keep trying to improve yourself and you will prove that to yourself.
