What To Never Say To A Ptsd Sufferer

[mumstheword]

It sounds like I said sexually abused by doctor. Just to clarify, Dr told me to go and get a job, but wasn't one of the sexual abusers.

This was written in sarcasm.

Ever had a comment made by a family member/ friend/ coworker/ stranger...

"This hadn't changed you"
I know they are trying to be supportive, but this is simply not true, even though I wish it was.

“Does that make sense?”

NO! Your f*ckING brainwashing does NOT make sense!!!!!!

My mother tells me
"Put your feelings in a box and forget about them."
My abusive husband would tell me:
"You have false conceptions of reality. Only I know what is best for you. I will speak to you again when you aren't crying."

Wrong thread.

If you can bring yourself to watch TV, lol.


@Rhoeth, maybe you can put your mother in a box and forget about her. Put her in there with your abusive husband. (I hope I'm not offending you)
