well  last night I finally got told I have ptsd I feel positive about the help they are offering me. I just hope it does help because I can't cope being like this anymore am just confused about everything. I have pushed everyone away and last night it all came to a head. Speaking to the mental health team has helped me to see what I need to do.

Hi Sarah. Welcome to the forum.

There is nothing justy or easy about finding the healing path which will work for you. Takes allot of trial and error. *Just* gotta keep trying.

I got my fingers crossed with you that this is the right path for you. I even got my toes crossed, too. I love showing off that I can cross my toes!!! Don't even need to uncross my fingers to do it.

Gentle support while you give the new therapy hope a whirl. We'll be here for you, whichever way the whirl whorls. Welcome aboard.

Glad you have a good support team. The road to living with PTSD is different for everybody. There will be ups and downs and a lot of emotion. Use all your resources including us here. It's a good group with a wide variety of experiences and listening skills. Pretty good advice too. Lots of support and hugs.

I have been under a couple of teams but they just brush me off after 6 weeks. But these said I will be under them for months. I know what has made me like this and I had to relive it last year in court. 11 years its taken. I give up hope but then on Monday I can finally see a light. I just hope they stick to there word and help me and thank you everyone for your support x

    Woke up feeling very emotional and about to clock in at my place of employment. And can't place it all in writing but not been a good experience with my store manager or his boss. Defamation of my character is a concern. I've been losing appetite and weight. Trying to perform at work to keep myself from hospitalization as a result of toxic masculinity.
