You know you have PTSD when you have to take RX Vitamin D pills because you never leave the house.

HeeHee!

OMG Ayesha.....it's scary how true this is!!!! LOL! What's even worse......I have a photo of my T on one of his emails to me that I always have open on my computer so that I can switch screens and look at it just to calm me downwhen I get anxious! :crazy:

----when you think of your T voice and it calms you down. I like his "where are you?" the best.

....when you open your mouth and nothing comes out because you haven't said a word in hours.

....when you stay on this forum all night because you have no friends and nothing else to do

Mine is...when I look at his photo I hear him say "You can do this" with such conviction and compassion, it makes me believe I can. Sorry, hijaked the thread.

You know you have PTSD when your standing "date" is for your therapy session!

Me Too!!! You know you have PTSD when your husband as nothing to wear to work and you have no underwear. You collect clothes to be washed and open the washing machine...Oh, that's where all the clothes are!

More serious but...you know you have PTSD when your T emails you back and its says "Please verify receipt of this message."

To second Ayesha, you know you have PTSD when its 1 am and you're still on the PTSD forum instead of going to sleep. Great posts Ayesha, I can see myself in all of them!

Good night all.

You know you have PTSD when someone gives you a hint (bluecat) that maybe its time to sleep...and you think sleep? maybe later...

You know you have PTSD...

and have had it for life when the only Happy Birthday you get is an email from PTSD Forum, and you're very grateful. And smile. And you know you have PTSD, and have had it for life, when you break down and pray to god to please...please help me heal. And rid me of this shame. And finally, you know you have PTSD, and have had it for life when you cry after a post like this. And while writing it, too. :smile:

 

[Lady of Longbourn]

Amen, James.

I had that kinda of Birthday too...and was grateful for the email too.

You're going to make me cry too...

You know you have PSD when...
...your whole life seem to center around the things that happened. But you never actually think of them. They are never you.

.... you feel you can identify with Rambo lol.

.... the first thing you do when you wake up is come here, you don't bother to check email or facebook, because for some reason people have always treated you like you don't exist.

How depressing....

You know you have PTSD when:
There must be something wrong with your hand because you cant even read your own writing.
When you were in a session with your T but are not sure if you were really there ?
When you actually leave the house you have to go back because you can't convince yourself that you closed the garge door 10 times.

You know you have PTSD when you empty the can of tuna in the cats dish, mix mayo with the cat food, spread it on bread, eat your sandwich and don't realize what you've done until your husband goes to make a tuna sandwich and screams "What the HELL????.....UGGGHHHH!

Urgh ... really ..... did you eat cat food?! ......(sorry just off to vomit!)

You know you have PTSD when you are willing to sit and wait in your T's waiting room for 30 minutes before your session, just because you feel safe there.
