Sufferer New To The Forum

[DucatiGirl]

Hi everyone, I forgot to post an introduction. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to do so!

I was diagnosed with PTSD and various anxieties 15 years ago due to sexual assault by strangers about 20 years ago. I was pronounced "in remission" ten years ago, but I seem to be having a bit of a relapse, possibly a cyclical relapse, and am trying very hard not to slide further down the rabbit hole. I feel like I'm scrambling up a steep hill on shale at the moment, but I don't dare give up the climb. I'm in a new city with a new therapist and don't have a lot of support as, like a lot of us, I've done a fantastic job of alienating myself from friends and family.

I'm very happy to have found this forum, and I look forward to the support from this fabulous community, and from lending my support to it.

Cheers

I have personally found this site to be full of very kind and supportive people. I hope you'll experience the same! :)

I relate so much to this, I have done the same thing and now I feel so lonely

This Forum is amazing, I am so glad I have found it, as well as you have.

Welcome on board, together we are much stronger!

Welcome to the forum.
That's a lot of new stuff all at once.
Hope you get along well with the new therapist and can form a good relationship.
Lots of people here to help out.

@DucatiGirl Welcome to the forum! :)

Any type of stress can make symptoms flair up and a move is a big source of stress. I hope you find the support and information here helpful.
