I managed to hunt loads of stuff out here in the uK if it is relevant to you. Im also work for an emergency service and have access to lots of organisations that might be good for you. So if you are based in the UK (and Im not asking you to tell me what country you are in) please do ask.

Wish you well either way.

Hi Scared,

I'm sorry I missed your original post. If I would have seen it sooner I most definitely would have chimed in.

I'm glad you stayed!! :tup:

I was told by a therapist whom I trust very much that some PTSD symptoms do mimic some symptoms of schizophrenia to much lessor extent.

At first before I was properly diagnosed I thought I had schizophrenia. I too was experiencing some hallucinations and things.

What happened with your daughter just breaks my heart to pieces. I can only imagine what it did to you. And that is a side from all the other abuse you received at the hand of your ex partner. :(:cry:

I also understand your fear of Dr.'s. Like me, you will probably have to do a very wide search and interview many before settling on one. And I do hope you start the search and try to find a professional Trauma therapist to help you.

Please never feel alone here. Just keep posting and also answering other posts will help you make some friends and get more involved in the forum. It really helps.

You can always PM me anytime if you need to talk.



warm regards,

solo

I guess this is not the site for me...I thought I could get support or help here and no-one is bothering..story of my life...I will deal with it myself...

You've been through hell. I give you a ton of credit for having survived it. You might feel down and out, but you're really very tough. Maybe you can use your hardships to help others. I often try to do that myself. Hang in there. I'm routing for you.

Sorry I havent been on here to chat and see how you are coping. I have had somewhat a week from hell this week. Pushed myself to go to the dentist to have a tooth out. The pain and tugging, particularly in my mouth sent me over the edge. Ended up in bits, flashbacks and a panic attack in the reception. I told my supportive boss, who is obliged to tell senior management and they took the decision to book me off sick for a while without asking me how I felt the following day....so not happy about that. Work just dont get it and keep taking control...so frustrating. I have now taken the decision of not saying anything to my boss and withdraw. I dont want to, she has been sooo kind and I need her (taking me to counselling etc), now I have to go alone, but I have to draw a line in the sand if I. :O_o:

Anyway, less of me, how are you? Have you managed to find the right kind of support yet? I hope so.

:-)
