You Know You Have PTSD When...

You find matching earings @ladee ?? :wideeyed: :tup: ;)

When longjohns are dressing up to walk the dog, versus PJ's. :)
When you can't decide if things matter a lot, & or they don't matter at all. So you choose the latter because the first takes way too much energy. Except for worry, that matters a lot.
Your watch is loud but the alarm clock on full volume music is too quiet.
When you could describe every inch of every ceiling but can't remember your neighbour's name.
When you realize partying was easy,no substance, no expectation, no disappointment, no sleep, no questions asked, no answers required.
When you despise hearing be proud you survived, then hate yourself for being disgusted at someone's support. But still wish you hadn't & know they don't get it.
When you come to despise the initials P.T.S.D.
 
When simple questions prompt a several hours long lights-out & nobody's home state.
When you push yourself out of that state because you remember beloved people smiling at you when you did it the other time and palming your cheek.
When you try to just suck up the awareness not only they're not here, they won't be again. They're heere and soft palming of your heart instead. It's okay. They're here, they're sleeping.
 
When you have been visited big time by the distorted cognition fairy and you realize that b*tch didnt leave you even a quarter under your pillow.

When moving to a different seat brings relaxation and clarity of thought because you were trapped in anxiety in the first chair.

When your T high fives you for deciding to move yourself back to the anxious seat and continue on with what trapped you in anxiety.
