Lurking For Months, Now A Member (scared)

[CraftyCath]

Welcome Hunter and thanks for sharing. There are so many people here with similar stories to yours and it is a VERY safe place to open up and share.

A word about dementia. I'm 47 and I have 'senior moments' all the time (like trying to put the dirty laundry into the freezer, going into a room and forgetting what I went in for). Most people with PTSD, especially complex (complicated) forms, experience severe memory difficulties. It is because our glass is full of PTSD junk and nothing else will fit in. Anthony has a good thread on this somewhere if anyone would be kind enough to find it.

Dementia is different, I would seriously get another medical opinion on this.

I wish you all the joy in the world. x

Dear Hunter, your brain has been seriously wounded from PTSD. I totaly agree with CraftyCath get a second opinion.

Dear Hunter, Congratulations on taking that huge step in not only becoming a member but by introducing yourself, be proud of yourself for doing that.

There is such good, easy to understand information here, as well as friendship and support.

As the last 2 posts have said ask for a second opinion re the dementia. Your T is a T not an expert on dementia.

Now that you are with us, you have joined an amazing community, you need never feel alone again.

((HUGS)) if you will accept them
Wishing you peace
