Hello

Hello Everyone,

Have lost my way here a bit. Lost my password - took me ages to find the motivation to get a new one. Seem to have a difficult time dealing with any changes to the website design. Can't find the friends I had made! Will try and figure things out as I go along - and that will be slowly! I have, however, been checking in here regularly and reading posts, which continues to help me, a big part of what helps is knowing that others are going through the same thing - that this thing we suffer from is not 'madness', is not 'a weakness' - it's PTSD - an injury and a natural response to our trauma.

Thank you to you all for being here, just the mere act of you writing helps me, because I can read and empathise and feel so less isolated. Have isolated myself a great deal.

And a massive thank you to Anthony.

I always feel embarrassed saying thank you, don't know why. Makes me feel like a sychophant, I suppose. Why, I don't know???? Bell sound keeps going off on my computer for some reason. Can't seem to get out what I want to say.

So goodbye for now, don't know if chit/chat is right place for this?

Lots of love,

Louisa xxx

Hope to hear more from you. I relate so much to everything you said. I isolate too. And I love your definition of PTSD ...so true.

Hi and welcome back. I hope you continue to improve and not isolate as much although I must say I completely understand. I have days where I am perfectly fine until my family gets home and then I just have to hide. I usually choose my closet because it is close enough that no one can get in without my knowing it.

I have found much help here. For many years I thought I was a freak and there was no one like me in the world. Boy am I glad I was wrong.
