I Am New To This Site And Want To Say Hello

[KrisMC]

Hello. My name is Kristin. 22 year survivor of PTSD and off/on severe depression. After 6 years of being "well", I now find myself going through PTSD again. Not sure of the trigger this time and not sure why I have it again, so I came here. Thank you for having me here - Kristin

Hi Kristin,

Welcome to the site.

Hmm, yeah, PTSD can be a bit of a rollercoaster! I hope you find some help here to overcome your current difficulties.

Regards, CB

Hello fellow newbie! It sounds like you're going through that blasted "onion peel" again. I hate that. You think everythings been taken care of & whammo! there it is again. But you have the tools now- since you've gone through this before -to take care of you as you travel this new road to healing.

Just remember what worked before & do that now, too. Have you recontacted your therapist & updated them? I would encourage you to do this.

Welcome New Member & Longtime Survivor;

I'm sorry to hear that you are having troubles again. If its any help, I have found that no matter how I feel, whether good or bad, that I need to face my issues each and every day. In some form or another. If I go too long without doing this I have a relapse. No doubt its tough to journal or address my issues when I feel fine, but this seems to keep me very balanced. I am accepting that this is going to be a part of my life forever and I truly feel things become easier with time.

I wish you the best of luck in finding your balance. You've come to the right place!
