What context were you in when you went through this? It's familiar to me and my experience, mine being when I survived 6 years as a missionary kid in a war zone in Latin America growing up. My car was bombed, bullets flew, neighbors killed, buildings bombed, and my house was occupied by troops in combat. My parents went crazy with PTSD, but they refused evacuation for our safety and went mad with domestic violence inside our house in the midst of war, too.

I hear ya, our traumas may have come from different contexts. but PTSD is so hard to cope with as you say it all has been for me ,too. Thanks for posting your stuff, it encourages me to know you and I aren't alone, hard as it is to cope, it helps.

Gentle support. People can't always grasp what it is to be deliberately attacked, to be in fear, and feel so darned vulnerable. I wish nobody knew, but as we do... from various causes... paw bump of solidarity.

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
