Sufferer When You Think You Have Your Ptsd Under Contact And Then It Charges And You Dont Feel In Contact Any

Feel like my PTSD is really getting too much for me at the moment. My head feels ready to explore. I'm so angry, snappy and moody and i just feel like i've got so much going on at the minute in my head. I'm an emotional wreck, not stopped crying all morning. Just wish i could go back to the person i used to be. Think i'm just having a really down day today. Does anyone else feel like its all just getting too much for them at times? I get so angry at the slightest thing and i've noticed over the past few weeks its becoming more and more. Something can upset me and then i will be in a mood and its hard for me to swap out of it. I'm so scared im going to push the closest person to me away.

Hey. I know actually what you're going through. One thing that helps to avoid the effects of being triggered is to accept them. I dont know what caused your PTSD but whatever it was I'm sure it wasn't you're fault so to be angry at yourself is in a way neglecting yourself. One thing I do to avoid having a lost day due to stress is to envision myself as who I was during the time of the abuse and counseling that person mentally. I tell my former self that I'm okay and that its okay for me to feel this way because I was abused. I grip myself up almost like giving myself a hug and I tell my former self I'm safe because I'll protect me. I sometimes still feel the helplessness but it becomes manageable to the point where I'm not moody and projecting on to others. Running away from you're symptoms is a definite no in my opinion because it avoids the problem at hand and subconsciously you make yourself feel emotionally neglected. I believe the best to way to heal is through acceptance and patience. Love yourself. All parts of you.
