You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Ronin]

When your moment of joy of holidays... is @ISupportHer 's annual Christmas post.

When you distract yourself by a lot of awful jokes about & by political prisoners, because hilarious shit that's... apparently sad to the rest of the world. This is why I don't tell jokes.

 

[Friday]

When you really wanna hear the political prisoner jokes :cautious: :shifty:

 

[Ronin]

Lots of Nelson Mandela. Didn't know he's a Nissan (main) dealer for one, @Friday.

And why can't Dalai Lama vacuum under his bed? Because he has no attachments.

When you freak out about your body...

 

[Upside Down Eagle]

@Anrish agree

When you go to the city to buy groceries, but end up hiding behind some bushes like a spy

 

[IamJenna]

When u can't focus enough to find something to eat.
& it takes a whole hour to make a cup of tea ️.
"What am I doing again?"
"I should walk over here right?"
"Why am I over here again?"

 

[Ronin]

When asking a fairly innocent question about relationships takes you a whole week of dissociating, god knows how long of trying not to puke, and several attempts to kill yourself by stupid things you're aware of only in retrospect.

Right. I'm not trying to deal with that one. Back to heroes that didn't go sour, Mr. Mandela I'm looking atcha.

When you're ready for an attack from the side and realize it's just your shadow!

 

[RandyMac]

You learn the difference between a strong panic attack and a heart attack.

 

[Lost Marbles]

When you suspect someone has been trying to get into your home while you are sleeping. So you place you bed mattress at the foot of the door and that is where you sleep because they can't get in without waking you.

 

[Teasel]

When any and every loud noise makes you jump out of your fricking skin.

 

[Chiqui]

When you can't sleep the all night because next day someone is coming home for few hours and previously this person has triggered you, and you are afraid may happens again. And embarrased because probably I will react or hide on my bedroom (or both)
