Hey everyone
Without going in to more details than the title (I would be happy to give more details privately and with trigger warnings) I was involved in an armed robbery five years ago where I fully believed I was going to die. I have been very lucky to reach the point I'm at now, where I am generally happy and my triggers have a much smaller effect on me than they did before, but of course I still have to navigate the world with my PTSD in mind and may well do for the rest of my life. Anyway, I am trying to specifically find people who have gone through a similar thing to me. I've talked to people about PTSD but never found someone who I felt understood the actual trauma. If this is you, or if you know a site I should look on, please message me. Thank you so much and you will all be in my thoughts
