C-PTSD

I have PTSD @JP81, might even be C-PTSD, but perhaps others will be able to offer you a better response. It's hell, isn't it? I hope you're doing alright despite it. I send you best wishes. You're in good company here.

Hello@historylover

Thank you for your response.
c-ptsd & ptsd… same same really.

ive been here before. But … of course i isolate and dont want to share my issues with others.
am in down patch and thought i gotta try it again..

i hope you are well too 🤗

Welcome back then @JP81 😄Glad you have decided to give the forums another go. Though its likely your return is due to an increased need. I really hope you find what you are looking for this time round. I too am a diagnosed c-ptsd sufferer, and yeah its pretty hard to deal with at times.

So sorry to hear you're in a down patch at the moment @JP81. Perhaps, like me, it's always bubbling away just under the surface. I'm also isolated. It has become a way of life for me. It's the only place I feel safe. I just try to make the most of my situation. I guess you do the same.

Do you have interests? Things that keep your mind occupied as best you can? I'm in Melbourne and it's really cold this past week or so, and still so much more to come.

Spaghetti Bolognese tonight. Forcing myself to cook and eat something substantial.

Hi @JP81

c-ptsd here also and I had spaghetti bol for dinner too.
It’s a hard life living with this…

@JP81 @Bow, that's really funny that spag bol is the default meal for PTSD/C-PTSDers today! As for me, @JP81, I just checked my weather app and it said that you currently have 11° and we have 10° here in Melbourne. I just can't get warm.

You're welcome for the message. I know when I am feeling really low and need to reach out here, it feels so good when I get such warm replies. It makes so much difference. Makes us realize that good people still exist.

Sorry @Bow. I deleted this post. I'm getting myself a little tangled up with out of sequence posts. I must be tired. 🤔
