No Therapist, Triggered Badly.

(((Okradlak))) *linking arms also*

Few hours now since you posted; how are you hanging in there now?
 
I am still in pain. That is a huge trigger because it is trauma related. I went out with an old friend who invited me, did a lot of blocking.....

I am hoping the pain will stop soon. If not I am going to the ER. I am not going to slide down into oblivion.

THank you for the support that is on here. I know it's up and down and up and down to the point of madness. It is just that PTSD seems to make us so fragile A good day and one little appt or reminder and boom.

I am linking arms back with you!!
 
Gathering this is from the medical appointment yesterday? :( I wondered how you'd be after what you shared then. Hope the pain eases; but yes please do go to the ER if you think you need to at all! *hugs* Is anything helping you at the moment to ground?
 
Hi OKRADLAK,

I hope today is a little better. Is you not having a T due to insurance? Do not mean to be intrusive, or sound like I know anything, or imply you haven't explored every possibility to find one you could think of. I was able to get help when I had no insurance through a church, that's all. Some with ordained ministers do this, with zero requirement that you belong there and do not base the counseling on a religious perspective. I'm not saying all, but for whatever reason some ministers also pursue even higher counseling degrees than what is required for thier profession. Perhaps not all of these will have the ability to address the PTSD in what is needed but it's something. Plus, they tend to be well connected in the mental health fields and may be able to put you in touch with those who can genuinely help. It depends on the individual organization, I think, whether or not a church or minister will respond to a request. Just a thought, but do not mean to be intrusive with this.

Do take care, and wishing you Peace.

Anni
 
Hi Okradlak,

Hoping you are feeling better. It is so hard dealing with this disorder. Don't have anything to say as I don't know what your trigger is, what caused your PTSD or what your pain is from, but am glad you are getting support here. Hang in there.
 
Hello, friends...

I am still in pain. Once it gets triggered it is hard to stop it mentally and physically. I am going to wait a few days before going to the Dr again. Would be nothing they can do anyway. I appreciate that you guys were thinking about me, though!! I care about how you all are, too, and sometimes during the day I actually send warm thoughts to those who have shared a particularly bad day. It helps us that we do not feel so alone,
