Ptsd Stemming From Workplace Assault

[Ane Jackson]

I was assaulted in the workplace in April 2016 of this year. I reported it, and it has been a living nightmare for me ever since! I'm hurt, embarrassed at times to think that this even happened, sometimes I can talk about it and other times not, I'm dealing with frustration and so many other feelings. I'm screaming inside and outside at times. Has any one ever gotten over PTSD? All of these feelings are new for me, and it's really difficult coping with all of the matters that have truly grown out of this situation!!!

PTSD isn't curable, but it is manageable. With time, patience, learning coping skills, facing your trauma, therapy, possibly meds and a few hundred other things and tricks, you can manage pretty well. It's daunting, but workable....

I've been through a similar situation and I can relate. I haven't been the same since. I think you can work through some things, but quite honestly I don't think I will ever be the same. My assault happened about 7 years ago.
