Sufferer Ptsd Life Interruptions

[JeResiste]

I was diagnosed with PTSD several years ago. I was managing my symptoms okayish until this past semester. I crashed hard and had to withdraw from grad school. I'm devastated :(

I feel like I can only get so far before i'm knocked back down. I'm stuck in bed again and off my meds.
Sigh..

This, probably more than anything else, is what pisses me off the most about PTSD. Once my feet get knocked out from underneath me? It can take so much time to right side up things, again.

Welcome to the forums :)

Welcome to the forums @JeResiste! I had to withdraw from school due to PTSD as well. It was so heartbreaking. :hug:

@JeResiste Welcome to the forum!

PTSD does come back, but when it does, you know what helped the first time around and it is possible to get back up. I hope you find the information and support here helpful as you work on getting back on your feet.

I had a similar thing happen. I was (am) very close to finishing my Bachelor's, but the fear and panic attacks just trashed me over several semesters. It was a massive kick to the gut, and has caused friction with my family. They don't understand...
