Sufferer Hi, nice to meet you :) preschool teacher with lifelong trauma.

Hi,

I've struggled with symptoms of PTSD since I was a small child, and my entire life has been filled with trauma.
I've been through LOTS of mental health therapy, I've survived many horrible things, integrated from severe dissociation, and here I am.
I'm a happy, positive, and really supportive person. I'm a preschool teacher and I live as a live-in support for a young woman with autism.
Just trying to work through the kinks and problems that remain as a result of my life.
But always trying to keep a sense of humor :)

Nice to meet you.

Hi there! Welcome to this community forum. You have found a good safe place for us to come share, support or be supported as need be.
Glad you found us. You are not alone in this, many have suffered as you have through your whole life things just continue to happen.
My trauma's were over a 17 year period starting as a young child. The damage has been over my whole life time. It seemed as though I was destine to have lots of trauma in my life, I wondered why did this all happen to me and not to other people. Now I know it is everywhere I am not alone. I also know so many that are away worse off than me. Some times I feel my problems are so insignificant when I read others stories. I know we are all hurting.
Again welcome glad that you found us
Peace be safe
