Ptsd to the 3rd power

[Deleted member 40217]

hello, writing from my mental health inpatient treatment center. I'm being treated for ptsd and just started chemo for returning cancer nodules in my thyroid cavity bed. I have a angel in this forum that encouraged me to seek help last Monday. Between having no thyroid,menopause and returning cancer this sent my ptsd into overdrive. I am ever so grateful I stumbled upon this forum this year. It's a place where ppl really get it. To be able to be mad,sad,angry,vent ,help ppl,ask for help and especially learn. Even on my most suicidal days I come on here to learn how others cope and some ( including me. Haha ) don't. NO ONE that has never expierienced trauma will ever understand the constant struggle we go thru and how important it is to fight the fight. One chemo to down 4 more to go. Going to be rough ride I'm told so if you don't mind I will continue to seek support from you all on here if that's okay. I'm apologising in advance if and when I get moody:( lol. Much love:)

Hi @AlexandriaSupertramp

Wish I could offer the wisdom of the ages... can't, but I'd love to keep in touch with you. You sound like a real fighter. I could learn a lot from you.

It's hard to reach out... very guilty myself, but you have the drive to get well. Keep fighting. Yes, you stumbled onto a great site where lots of ppl want to connect.

Keep posting.

So sorry to hear what you are going through! That's some intense shit to have so many things happening at once. I hope you get lots of support in the "real world," as well as the support I know you'll find here on the forums. Sending prayers and gentle hugs, if you accept them, chocolate if not!

Thanks @stp2012 I'm not going to lie, Its been hell! I have only been feeling good and strong these past few days.... so I was encouraged to share the good with the bad. I will definitely keep in touch because I know how hard it is to reach out let alone open up. We can learn to do this together:p
