Hello- I am new to the group
We are all just patients here. None of us are qualified to diagnose, but we are plenty able to offer emotional support while you sort through the hurt and confusion of it all.
Welcome aboard. Gentle support while you sort.

If you're concerned for yourself specifically, I'd suggest following the link offered at the bottom of that VA page to find a therapist in your area:
National Domestic Violence HotlineLink will take you outside the VA website. VA is not responsible for the content of the linked site.: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233) responds to calls 24/7, every day of the year to offer confidential crisis intervention (www.thehotline.org)
We're here to support you through the process of finding the path to healing.
Good luck to you

i've also got it from actual domestic violence.
i'm so sorry you have endured this and do please find professional help right away.
gentle welcoming hugs to here
Simpson: I had to look up chronic shock syndrome. I highly doubt you were 'crazy'. Inured, traumatized and your reality distorted by events but no. Not crazy. Topic for another time but I wanted to reassure people they are not crazy. Welcome to you too.
