Ut, Usa. Two Friends Wanted. (internet Friends Ok)

[rainydaze]

Hi, I am looking for two friends.

I am in rurual Utah and don't expect to find someone near me, so an Internet friend would work just fine. Here are a description of the two friends I am looking for:

PTSD sufferer/survivor/thriver:
I would like a friend that also has PTSD so we can talk like real people (if you know what I mean). I would prefer a friend who has trauma caused young adult or adult experiences. I feel most connected those those whose trauma was caused by such things as war/violence, abduction and alienation, long term violence, total loss or property and displacement, or psychological coersion. I'd really like a friend who has experienced Stockholm syndrome (or whatever it is now called). I feel I best relate to those who have experienced these things. I sympathize with all who have PTSD, and would love a friend who has PTSD for any other reason as well. I just thik we could benefit each other the most if we have had similar experiences.

Person in a relationship with a PTSD diagnosed partner:
I would like a friend that is in a relationship with someone with PTSD. What I would like from this friend is someone who I can be honest with and get advice about how to be a better companion to the man who has stuck by me for the past four years. I've put him through hell, but I have slowly learned how to do better by him. I still have a ways to go and I would like to be able to ask this friend questions when I encounter situations where I don't know what to do.

I am in my late twenties, and am female. I don't mind male or female friends, or where they are located. I don't mind any age.

Please consider becoming my friend!

Peace and love!

Read my profile information see if you would like to consider being my friend. I am looking for friends too. I like to Skype chat not video chat, it is a lot easier.

I am inspiring, kind, childhood sufferer of childhood sexual abuse, I think of myself as having post traumatic growth not post traumatic stress. I approach everything with a holistic point of view. I am 26. I go to a university in the US. I am looking for new friends to chat and relate too. I am positive, happy, upbeat, encouraging, smart, funny, resilient, empathetic, and I am a very good friend. A very good person to talk with. I am studying sociology and women studies.

Send me a message if you are interested I will give you my email and Skype if your interested. :)

I just started using this forum again yesterday. I joined a year ago, posted a couple times then withdrew again. I haven't done my profile yet but I will!

Until then, here's some basic info: I am also living in utah. I've got PTSD from childhood and youth that manifested when I first started college about 10 years ago. My mother has BPD (she doesn't know this yet, but she has also been diagnosed with PTSD). I am 28, I'm married with a baby who was born earlier this year. Nobody I know (including family) other than my husband and therapist know about my mental issues so I obviously keep it together pretty well in public, haha. I was a "career woman" until my son was born, so the adjustment has been...challenging. Not really into play groups and homemaking gossip so I have been feeling a bit isolated and lonely. I've got female friends but I generally have trouble relating to women on an emotional level since I don't really openly discuss my emotions! So yea, I'd like a woman to talk to. :)

I'd like to think I'm a good friend. Kind, empathetic and understanding. You're welcome to contact me if you're interested!
