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.
The hurt and trauma can take over one's life and feeds upon our good nature, which tends to stunt our spiritual growth! To be robbed everyday by endless suffering and failures; no matter how much effort and prayers can be disheartening!
We all will face this fact and come to terms with these struggles one day! Myself, I always start the day alone and end my day alone; I am undeserving of sharing my hurt with anyone anymore! I cry out 'uncle' and 'Jesus Christ' every time the hurt makes me submit to the anguish and stops me in my tracks! I got just enough gumption to try two more revision operations and relive it all over again! So far hiding in my Home feels safe, yet like a prisoner I am not free from my personal angusish!
I know like others here we have to be our own Hero and save ourselves to help others to be stronger in their journey and become Survivors too! Somehow I forgot to allow others in my life and edited out all my support; leaving only the hurt fighting alone!
I caution those to find at least one person you can confide in and you will not feel like the loniliest person on the planet Earth; like myself!

Here is my new brother, copper :) He's so tiny! Moo and Tuck were ok with him on first meeting. Rocket due to his severe aggression will never meet Cooper.

Currently experiencing full failure of knee implant causing trauma bouts of hollering out for GOD! I am afraid of any pain pills, since I lived in a pill bottle for ten years and gave up 180 mg a day of oxycontin, it has been fifteen years free of pills, being a Ghost in the Shell on pills!
Today I find this prolonged agony too much for this stubborn soul to endure anymore! Tomorrow if I do not find my surgeon to be of anymore help I will resolve the situation myself! Self amputation is something I contemplated since age 16 and if would have known then that 30 years of suffering 9 surgeries failed! I would do the Dry ice not the rail road tracks resolve this myself! I do not want to live in fear and pain and suffering at the hands of anymore surgeons!
Have you approached a surgeon about an elective amputation? If your current one won't do it...you could see about second opinions?
There may be something that can help that won't trigger your addiction?.... Not sure but I would talk to your doc if it were me
I hope that you have some relief soon..... Another hug and a blessing.....xo

"There might be someone thinks I'm odd
Cause I sound gloomy and grim
And they might wish I'd sing
An old hit love song,
But I'm not wishin' on them
No, I'm not wishin' on them
Those times when you
Got to be your own hero
Those times when it's fallin' on you
Those times when there's
No one but God to call on
Those times when you barely get through"
This lyrics from the song “Overcomer” by Mandisa, inspires me that whatever difficulty that we are going through we will always overcome. I hope you will feel better soon, I will be praying for you. God bless.
“Whatever it is you may be going through
I know he's not gonna let it get the best of you
You're an overcomer
Stay in the fight 'til the final round
You're not going under
'Cause God is holding you right now
You might be down for a moment
Feeling like it's hopeless
That's when he reminds you
That you're an overcomer
Everybody's been down
Hit the bottom, hit the ground
Ooh, You're not alone
Just take a breath, don't forget
Hang on to his promises
He wants you to know, you’re an overcomer.”
Thank you all!
Gonna crawl in a hole for a bit until its safe again!
yet he sent his P.A. instead! How much I believed in my surgeon to help better my life and just ended up letting my guard down and my emotions exposed to be hurt deeply today! The happy pills never stopped the constant crying and feeling of wanting to vomit, while asking the P.A. how could they leave me like this?
I had that feeling another doctor was giving up on me , yet Alone again in my despair and anguish i will always be crawling out of the trenches, to only be dragged back down and forgotton! Think I will go fishing and contemplate 'Life' and my self worth!
