Undiagnosed I Am New Here Today

[seekinghelp]

I am very nervous about posting. I feel very silly and am not even sure I have PTSD but really need to find out so at least then how I am feeling has a name.

I don't know where to start - I am locked in grief following the death of my mother six years ago (this month) and can't remember anything about her before her death. The last three weeks of her life are like a video playing over and over.

It seems pathetic to feel like this when people face so much worse and who have witnessed so many truly awful things.

Hello seekinghelp,

I find it a good thing that you posted. Welcome to the forum. :)

This is good place to be -- even when nervous, feeling silly, having doubts...

I think you will find what you are seeking.

Again, welcome.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

What you are feeling isn't pathetic, it is grief and it is real. No-one here can diagnose you and I would suggest you talk to your doctor about what you are experiencing. Only then can you recieve the full help you need.

Wishing you well
