You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Friday]

When... I haven't had that much fun in years! :D

Sorta kinda involved immediate threat to life :bag:

f*ck me, though, that felt good!

When two days in a row, you have gone out in public with your shirt on ,inside out.

you have gone out in public with your shirt on ,inside out.

You are not alone, I did that many years ago. I think it only happens to you a few times. LOL>

Whe Hacksaw Ridge is a feel good movie.

You watch an entire half of a football game only to have to restart it because you haven't seen a single down.

When you fight back tears for days. When you just close the door so you won't have to talk.

When you're scared to share good things, because they'll be taken away.

And when 'don't share -> protect' & 'share -> protect yourself' are enough of a clash to give you a headache for weeks.

When you can feel the action of your heart... In your chest, belly, fingertips, legs.

For no reason.

Except, you know, for the emergency that's not. :banghead:

***

All systems go! Next crisis! ...there is no crisis... There WILL be. :banghead:

No. Breathe. Chill. Tranquilo. Shhh. Back it down.

When you start having anxiety because a fellow member is anticipating a crisis and you don't want that to happen and hope she..... Breathes. Chills. Tranquilos..... Shhhh, backs it down.

Every single time that I post on this forum, (and I have been a member for many years), I still get afraid that someone is going to give me hell for being ignorant (or some other flaw)...even though I post words that are straight from my heart. I do it anyway, but it still upsets me.

So, you know you have PTSD when you are scared to death to post on this forum.

When the easiest task can turn into a horrible obstacle as soon as something is involved what hurt you in the past.

When life gets stressful and my minds response is to start hallucinating scary shit

When that happens at work and I panic, calm down, then just carry on as normal

When I think things have calmed down, but I'm wrong because life never calms down.

Just when I think sleep is better, sleep stops and everything just becomes one long rollercoaster
