You Know You Have PTSD When...

[Ladyghosthunter]

...when all you seem to attract are narcissists that care only about themselves.

 

[Ronin]

... when you shoo narcissists because you're really hard to impress, and their flavor of impressive bores the living daylights out of you.

 

[Nighthawk]

When you are me.

 

[Ronin]

When being Nighthawk sounds good, because she's the chick with a new rooad. :hug:

When 99% of people you talk to are a part of a ptsd forum, or a psychiatrist

 

[Ronin]

When you talk to plenty other people and you are so boooored by them and annoyed you have to censore the majority of your life because it is not the lives they have lived.

When you absolutely panic during site migrations

 

[Ronin]

When you panic when having to be anywhere too long. Persuading your brain staying at one place =/ being an easy target doesn't work.

 

[Rosewater]

When you have no idea how to describe your experience to anyone in a way they'll understand.

 

[sun seeker]

When you are trying to explain your fears to a friend with a history of trauma who doesn't have PTSD... and they still don't get what you are talking about.

 

[Ronin]

When, on the topic of relatable people, you're permanently head desking. f*ck sake, can't talk just to soldiers & dissidents.

& your favorite conversational topic is still the weather. The weather fits conversations everywhere and doesn't tend to offend the speaker in some yucky, how the f*ck did I insult you now, way.

When you find out your 12 y/o daughter has been molested and you flip off the abuser's mother because she was too busy sitting on her cell phone on the porch to know what was going on in her own house!
