Sufferer New Here

[Fran]

Hi, I'm new here. I'm also pretty new to PTSD based on some of the other threads I've read so far. I have had it less than a year but it's been terrible.

I am also new to the whole concept of "forum". I'll try to get the hang of it. I want to post/come regularly as my health insurance only covers a certain number of therapy sessions per year and they're all out now, and I was becoming pretty dependent on them.

I've never been in the habit of sharing with friends or family, it will be nice to do it anonymously I think. At least at first, maybe later I can talk about it more freely.

Hi Fran,

Welcome to the forum. :)

This is a good place for me to come back to when I need or want to. I hope it will be the same for you.

A forum can be overwhelming at first, so just take your time. :)

Take care.

Sorry to hear about your health insurance issues....that is a major problem with health insurance in this country. Could you maybe find a practitioner that does sliding scale? I actually actively emailed people explaining my situation and issues and explained that I had financial issues and found one that would take me on a sliding scale....just a thought.

At any rate, welcome to the forum. Its helped me a lot.

I have found this forum to very informative and supportive. It has also bridged the gap between appointments with my therapist very nicely. My therapist also finds that I am progressing faster with all the work that I am doing on this forum. I hope you find the support you need here also.

Welcome!
