...so...
Hi all,
I'm new here but not to PTSD. I was formally diagnosed when I was 16 and then again last year just in case it had gone away (medical system). I was abused daily from the age of 5 to 13 by a wide range of male humans who don't deserve the title of men in my opinion. I was trafficked out of the country where the abuse continued until I was almost 16. I have combat PTSD from time in the Corps and more tramatic events at the hands of my ex husband and my ex best friend. I go through periods of being a high functioning damaged human but have found myself struggling to make new friends the past several years since the incident with my now ex best friend.
That about covers the larger things in a rough and pleasantly avoidant blanket.
