You Know You Have PTSD When...

[ladee]

:laugh: :giggle: :laugh: I would @Ronin if my brain worked. Maybe later. :laugh:

:D

No worries. I still need to find an appropriate fitting hat for when you do. Ain't been cowboy proper for years.

When... Actually other than just f*cking around, you're working on triggers. Both cowboys and Texas. Separately or not.

 

[mumstheword]

...when you start feeling really unsafe, on the ptsd site, lol, and when you are relieved it's a global lockdown, coz it takes pressure off you, to leave your house.

...when people say you have an attention problem but you’re really dissociating from the situation cause its too heavy emotionally. But u let them think its an attention span problem cause its better than having to explain the real issue.

When...

Talking in a single symbol is too loaded talk, too. :shifty:

 

[Changing4Best]

When I keep finding myself staring off into the distance, empty headed and then not. But I don't understand what is in my mind when I wake to its contents.

Some introductions are so :wtf:

Hello, trauma brain, please catch up with the rest of normal functioning ASAP.

Aka no problem walking into places & being shot at.

Net intros where completely safe? Shaky mess for days. :meh:

Either the disorder is a mess, or hilarious as f*ck. Prolly both.

You come to the point of just snatching all of your power back and you feel better than you ever have in your whole life.

When email alerts scare you,

your hungry but too scared too order takeaway because it means talking to someone,

your scared of yourself and what your capable of.

 

[Ronin]

your scared of yourself and what your capable of.

That scared may be a good thing... pointing to what one doesn't want to do, or be like, at all.

They are more than fears, but pointers & road signs to a better you.

Just because you're capable of something doesn’t mean willing to it, and just because you may be willing, does not mean you have to.

Even in situations one's hard pressed to, you have a choice.

Just fears? Are hard... but there's a woorld of choices. To do & be good. In any sense of that word.

Long noodle aside... That fear maay be just hunger talking :sneaky: Hunger does it with minds. Hope you ate since posting, or can soonest.

 

[ChildofGod]

instead of being scared of my abusers, I would love to publicly name them for all to see.

 

[Ronin]

You manage to forget a PTSD site.

That you've spent posting years on. :banghead:
