You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Friday]

<whereupon Friday steals @jaccat's notice board> :sneaky:

 

[Ronin]

When you remove 'sorry' from your vocabulary again & regrets still down you.

Nope. Move. Born to raise hell & born to protect heaven. I'm not going anywhere.

 

[Ronin]

When getting up is your greatest accomplishment

When you dedicate whole week of stay-at-home vacation to /making/ it again an accomplishment.

As that means appreciating life in its simplicity. As something manageable. As something more than: as something beautiful.

 

[Anrish]

When a friendly invitation sounds like a threat to you.

Related to my last post:
When you tell your son that you have slept better in the last 4 days than you have in the last 4 years, there's a pause and he comments "Now, THAT's really saying something!"

 

[Ronin]

a friendly invitation sounds like a threat

& When threats sound like friendly invitations and you need to constantly double check what would your entirely good peoples friends you're rather keeping faar away from your life say to what you've just received.

when one picture, one lyric in a song, one situation on a show can cause a downpour of tears into your wine glass.

 

[Anrish]

When you dissociated even while sleeping and the night seems to last forever.

When you dread going to your Pain Management Dr. And tell him the intense pain in your lower back is at a 2 instead of 10 because you ended a toxic relationsship.

When you still have nightmares from past...wake up feeling disturbed and yucky

 

[Lola Nocheprieta]

When getting through your gyn appointment without dissociating is a huge win, even though you still cried through the pain caused by too tight pelvic muscles.

When you so rarely leave the house..when the dog sees you brushing your hair she flips out because she thinks she's going bye-bye.:hilarious::hilarious::hilarious:
