I’d like to give a shout-out to ptsd for f*cking up the following things!

[Deleted member 37474]

:( I used to like this stuff.

The Mall
Loud Restraunts
The train
Sporting events
Sex
The Grocery Store
Driving
Social events
TV

Walmart: So it is always the pet isle, tall men just have to always come a little too close. What is this? So, I escape to the water purifier isle, trying to breathe and ground. Who would go there? Well... apparently everyone. Because it is the perfect empty isle to get to the next row of consumer joy.... never ending.

Family. :bored: I really love them. I have a good one. Just wish they understood a need for alone time. Quiet. Peacefulness. How scary dog toys can seem when they fly past your head. How everyone and two pets in my bed all at once when I am trying to calm down is not a fun memory for everyone.

What did PTSD f*ck up for you?:O_o:

Everything !!

My mind

 

[scout86]

People. Mostly people. I just don't get how to deal with people in anything more than a pretty superficial way.

 

[Deleted member 40995]

My ability to feel safe
My ability to have a normal conversation that doesn’t end in triggers and screaming
My ability to trust, even good people
My sleep
Ability to handle emotion without becoming overwhelmed or afraid to have emotion
My ability to process things and conquer problems without getting overwhelmed and having a panic attack
My self worth
My family
My outlook on the world

 

[EveHarrington]

Relationships.

Oh and I’m now a codependent magnet. Apparently I’m the cutest f*cking puppy dog with a broken leg that needs to be mended. SMH.

 

[mumstheword]

My family - I can hardy handle being around anyone in my family, including my children (I make extra efforts for them though)
My body
Functionality
Not being able to work
Finances
Living in this town
My house - can't maintain it
My social confidence
Socializing at all
Study - couldn't this, year next year unlikely I'll be able to too
Yeah sex has taken a nosedive lately, I have somatic and infection pain down there that coincidentally escalated with some early sexual abuse memory surfacing, damn!!!

 

[hymnless]

Sex
Crowds
Loud noises
Eating
Movies
TV
Using my phone in bed (or any screen that gives off blue light in the dark)
Having people walk behind me
Being touched
Being easygoing
Changing plans with late notice
Being alone with my thoughts

And like everything else but not always

 

[Sunny13]

Always on guard, can't stand crowds, My dreams are now nightmares (sleepless nights). Low self worth, no self-compassion, my emotions, trust, high anxiety, relationships, sex, driving, shopping, friends and family...

 

[MrMoonlight]

For f-ing my ability to live in the present moment and leave the past where it belongs. Also a big thanks for my inability to consistently be the cool laid back guy that I am.

 

[Friday]

Almost everything. Twice.
