Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Support Group
Find support with others who have gone through a traumatic experience. Whether you have chronic or acute PTSD, we are here for you.
Been feeling a need for positive notes to balance the anxiety and pain. As important as it is to honestly process the pain and sorrow of trauma, I just-a-patient believe it is equally important to balance each round of processing with positive hopes and compassionate humor.
Here are a few:
"Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and all of nature." Albert Einstein
"Only the unity of all can bring the well-being of all."
Robert Muller A planet of hope
"We take our first steps toward maturity when we have our first good belly laugh -- at ourselves. Ethyl Barrymore

Once again I've had a fever today. I'm not going to the hospital because that's a huge waste of time but I did schedule a dr appointment for Wednesday afternoon.
“Challenges are what make life interesting and overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.” – Joshua J. Marine
This is one that I've come up with on my own that really helps me during the day when I'm upset or triggered or both. I also use bible verses to help me.
"I am safe in the here and now, the trauma is over and no one can hurt me"

"I will lie down and sleep in peace for you oh Lord make me dwell in safety"
Psalm 4:8
"I am worthy of love and compassion"
"I deserve to be happy and loved"
These are the main ones that I try to use on a daily basis but I falter a lot and don't remember them when I need to.
