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.
In 2009 a psychiatrist who meant well overprescribed Seroquel for my PTSD nightmares, y'all, and I got kidney damage from it. It has affected my walking and put me on a cane because oxygen-rich blood fails to reach my feet and I've had nerve damage in them.
I get around cane and all most of the time, though. But yesterday both feet really started to hurt, and rest overnight didn't give me any relief. This morning they hurt and the best I can do is walk like Frankenstein today.
I hope things get better during the day because I've got plans to meet a couple of friends today, one in the morning and another in the afternoon, and I'd like to be ambulatory to get to them. Friends here and friends offline really keep me going in my PTSD recovery.
Support welcome for walking through the day today.

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.
So sorry you are suffering...
I'll be praying that your pain abates and you will be able to see your friends today.
I watched my mom suffer from chronic pain. No type of pain relief medication works for her. I can only imagine what you are going through.
Sending you support from my end.

Ha!
Less funny was that when I got up during the night to use the bathroom, my feet wouldn't work and I fell hard. Fortunately, as when I got PTSD from being tortured as a 15 year old missionary kid and the officer in charge had his gun jam twice when he went to shoot me, in such mishaps I have proof that God likes me. When I fell on my face in the dark last night I fell on the soft ottoman in my living room I prop my feet up on when I sit on my sofa.
I have plans to take a Mexican buddy here out to lunch at 1pm today, so I hope I can get these feet of mine to take me there, too. Thanks for the support in all of this. You're the wind under my wings, so to speak. Since the feet aren't working well, wings count for a lot right now.
