Ptsd Specific Emot-icons

Leave me alone !!! A monkey with a machine gun.

Or the front of a bank vault for isolation.

How 'bout bent-out-of-shape question marks, exclamation points, ampersands, etc. for inaccurate thoughts (cognitive distortions)--what I call "dysbeliefs" or "twistbeliefs."

< triggers> but of course it might be too controversial... :speechless:.

Probably for current political correctives of mental health standards, more like this within a emoticon...


Roy Rogers horse named Trigger :p
or a smiley showing...

 

[stillstanding2]

Something like the hugs:hug:, but the faces stare away from each other (dissociation)

@Recovery4Me, I do believe the picture of the horse, Trigger is my absolute most favorite... still:roflmao::roflmao::roflmao: !!!!

I usually see a birdcage rather than a dog kennel. But they both kind of imply the same feeling..and.. hmm.

Well I have a huge collection of emoticons on my PC (that I used in ages long gone, when MSN Messenger was still a thing - let´s have a moment of silence for MSN Messenger -). The ones I relate to PTSD though are pretty offensive because I have a crude sense of humor sometimes and I enjoy dark humor to get me through the shitstorms.

Maybe it´s better if I don´t describe them haha. I don´t want to offend anyone.

Dog kennel 100%.

Oh wait no, birdcages are me because it represents someone who can fly, has all the ability to yet is trapped in this cage waiting for a key.

So no, birdcage 100% for me.

( crying face ).....deep sadness from the pit of my stomach.

An old-time camera, its flashbulb going "pop" (flashback); a dripping half-moon (night sweat); bloodshot eyes (for insomnia); trembling hand (for jitters); exploding firecracker (for outburst); drooping "Rx" (drugs/meds); pants-down butt (overexposure/TMI); file stamped "classified" (secret);

Eegadd! I'm sounding like my nemesis, an ADVERTIZER!!!

An old-time camera, its flashbulb going "pop" (flashback); a dripping half-moon (night sweat);...

ADVERTIZER would be a bold dollar sign with a forked tongue!:mad::mad: (help?)

 

[Recovery4Me]

(help?)

Breathing deep gentle breaths might be my emoticon of choice for you in this moment. It is all good: we get it. :hug::hug: :)

Sorry if someone already mentioned. My memory can be lacking....

Leave me alone !!! A monkey with a machine gun.

A: Sir.
