Ihave been in the worst flare of my life.And also have alot of personal problems going on.I went to new DR this week and also got dx with myofascial pain.The few times i was able to get to computer and read what is going on has me scared and not wanting to post or talk to ppl.This is a set back for me, like alot of you i have my own story as to why i have PTSD.I go to a trauma group and there it is such a "safe place" and everyone tries to be supportive.I was always scared of the internet and"big brother" and the ppl that caused my trauma.But when found this sight it made me finally see others with this same horrible disease and not feel so alone and bounce ideas around and just vent.Now i'm skeptical and it is ashame.

Hard for me too. PTSD sux. I am keeping much less presence for a while till I sort stuff out.Take care of yourself, we understand:-)

I hope you can stay - I understand how the drama would trigger though. I have triggers of my own although they're different.

Take care of you. You are wanted here but you need to feel safe, whatever that takes.

Don't be ashame, I see where you are coming from about DS.

Too much drama going on for me. I have even wonder if some people are identity thefts, Just never give out personal info and don't post your picture, your childrens pictures or the town you are from on the internet,

Scary world and we don't know who is sitting behind their pc, what part of the world or prison

Hope you stick around.

I hope you stick around. We need each others support to help us cope with this terrible disease. I do understand where you are coming from.

laurjil~ I hope you stick around also we need this support. I thought about leaving also as a matter of fact I was MIA for a while but realize I need this for the support. I just try to only post with the people I think are positive and here for the right reasons. I hope you have a great weekend and we are here for you. Take care.

I've been pretty quiet about all this, but it has caused me to have an unsettled feeling about sharing and being here. But like you all, I do need the support dealing with this awful disease.

I'll hang around, but I'm being more cautious now.

I can totally relate to how you're feeling....I've been off for quite some time and was really disheartened to see the discord...had I not had some members here I still trusted, I know for sure that I would have been on and off again without anyone noticing I was even here. It seems to be better now. Sincerely hoping you stick around. Gentle Hugs!

We all need to support and band together and not let anyone take advantage of us and stay strong and careful at the same time its scary and not right it we let them win it will happen again. HUGS
