Hi Gloria,
I only just saw your initial post. It's hard to know what to say because you've suffered an awful lot but are soooo determined to not have the dam PTSD control your life. You sound frustrated at times but it looks like you're really making every positive step you can to get better, which means you will.
I just wished to mention that the thing you're doing which can't help but heal HUGELY is your rescue work. I don't know all the technical, scientific reasons that reaching out in compassion for another being helps heal onesself but for whatever reason it just does. Your dogs and your horses benefit from your lovely care, of course, and you're being put back together a little at a time by helping them. Cool how that works. :)
Thank you for the interesting post. It gave me some things to go look up!
Take care,
Anni
