I Have Found The Cure For Ptsd

[Me Myself and I]

Awful indeed!!! Still better than a doctor asking me if I was faking just to stay in the UK and get a visa though, Not realizing I have an Italian passport and the visa was the last thing I wanted!!!! (Well I don't need it anyway)!!!

I felt terrible afterwards for quite a while, didn't want to go see no more doctors!! Just in case!!!!!

It was hard, but I did it. I feel like a million bucks.

I am so proud of you! I was unable to shake the appropriate way so alas, I still have PTSD.

I hope you are up to filing a complaint. That is pretty poor treatment.

After reading your post, I shook for 22 minutes. It was hard, but I did it. I feel like a million bucks. Well, I don't need this place anymore. Goodbye everyone!

*Rolling on the floor laughing my butt off* Well I guess PTSD wasn't really hard to get over in the first. Problem solved! XD Yeah right!

Okay, I'll share. First I kind of shook like someone walked over my grave to get me started. Then - needing a little help and positive thinking - I downloaded "I Feel Good" by the incomparable James Brown. I started feeling it. I then added a little mindful meditation to my shimmy shake and in popped the suggestion for the Isley Brothers song, "Shout", which I had on CD. Now the trembling and shivering and vibrating had a life of its own. I was moving and a grooving. I played that 3 times. Then Something whispered in my ear - Peppermint Twist! Again I downloaded - all the time shaking and a breaking (in a good way) I tell you I was twisting like a dancing fool. My husband shouted from the bedroom - what the hell are you doing out there? I yelled, I'm unloading the PTSD baby! Finally came the last perfect inspiration - slow and mellow but shake-able. "Sally Go Round the Roses". I finished and collapsedon the couch. Exhausted yes, but free. Free at last.

Well now, I think I've dated myself.

Join me fellow PTSD-ers. You have the solution. It's up to you now.

I wonder if it's possible to shake off arrogance and ignorance... :facepalm: If so, she better get started... gonna take awhile.

So sorry you had to deal with that, Monster. :(:mad:

I am laughing so hard! This is what I needed. I feel better overall. I'm still upset about my treatment and I'm thinking of writing to NAMI.

Wow. Just, wow. Yes, everyone has stress. Yes, some stress can be simply shaken off and let go of. What that has to do with PTSD is beyond me.

I cannot even express how much that shocks and appalls me! PLEASE file some complaints against these people, and that nurse in particular.

PTSD = "just stress," are you kidding me?! Wow. PTSD can be just "shaken off?" Yeah, okay... what colour is the sky in this person's world?

OK, not that I can see to respond.....I was laughing so hard at some of these responses that I was crying! :roflmao: (Thank you for the great laugh.)

But in all seriousness, the ignorance shown by some medical professionals to mental illness is appalling. If you are up to it, file the complaint as it is time that all disease be treated equally and with the same compassion and concern.

You have made an awful situation a reason to laugh!! You are a kick! Love that sense of humor!

Today I sent an email of complaint to the Dept. of Health, Joint commission on health and the hospital. I was afraid to at first, since it is my word against theirs, but I thought maybe others had complained, and this would be a pattern.
