    Woman here. I experienced PTSD at the age of 19. I’m a survivor of sexual assault. I’ve been through a lot of therapy, and am doing much better now. You described exactly what me and so many others have gone and or are going through. Very informative video.

    Growing up, I have been bullied, been verbally, and emotionally abused by a parent that has been lingering to this day. I had dated and was friends with a woman who turned out to be sociopath who inflicted the same abuse as I had when I was growing up. I no longer have nothing more to do with this woman, but my mother, who is in nursing care with dementia.

    I was diagnosed with post traumatic stress when I was 24. I was raped when I was 16 and I thought I was over it but I never truly got over it.
    I met my partner at 17 and I was so toxic he never really knew that I was suffering.
    Thank you 🕊

    I’m pretty sure my BF has PTSD. He’s traumatized from all the fighting and yelling his parents used to do when he was little. We got into a fight, I yelled at him. He’s not really talking to me or seeing me. It’s been a month. He goes hot & cold on me. How do I help him? When will he feel better? I’ve tried everything. 😢

    I woke up this morning before I opened my eyes fully my brain was going through memory lane. Core memory of my mother back handing me in the face for writing in the wrong book for homework. I was 7 years old i was in the second grade, I remember the instant shock when she hit me , the sadness that came over me immediately. I ran out the door too fast before she can even catch me, I ran to my grandmas house downstairs, felt like I was running for my life. I remember getting there looking in the mirror blood running down my nose checking my lil teeth to see if they was loose. I was so hurt, for a moment i was proud of myself i did my homework on my own i wanted my mom to be proud of me too. She wasn’t she was upset cause i wrote in the wrong notebook. That shit hurt me so bad, Im 33 years old on Saturday. And ill never forget that, .. today I started my morning with that thought. I have a 6 year old who just started 1st grade, he so small, he a baby, I know kids get outta hand but I can’t imagine doing that to him.

    warning: rape threats, punching, mental illness and sad stuff, etc.
    story of why I’m here.
    (warning, it’s a long story.)
    me and my friends got threatened to be raped. my friend’s boyfriend tried to get the guy away from us. the bad guy got upset and called his cousin over. his cousin came over and punched my friend’s boyfriend (who also happened to be my friend as well.). All I remember is getting so stressed and somehow tearing up. after seeing the first punch be thrown me and my friend regained our strength and ran to get an adult. me and the girls in my friend group who got threatened went to the psychologist. We were all pretty traumatized from that and 4/5 of us were crying. our hands were shaking. They had a fidget bucket in that room, which was helpful since whenever I get really stressed, my fingers or feet need to be moving. After that I was still twitching a lot with my fingers and struggling to pay attention to my work. I came here since I still feel affected by it, thank you for this video.

    I’ve been recently diagnosed after finally reaching out for help. I’ve always been skeptical of antidepressants. Not sure if that’s my misunderstanding of them or what. But one was suggested along with the rest of the care plan. I’m willing to try it. Regardless of my fears. We’ll see how it goes. I just want to get back to some sense of “normalcy”. But while still retaining my regular virtuous good emotions lol

    When you’re a child and the man who gave you life and is supposed to provide and protect you throws you down wood stairs or puts you through walls while mom just stands there and does nothing or you get screamed at and won’t stop until you cry, you don’t get support at school, and friends die and loved ones leave, then you develop a habit of hurting animals, your brain just changes. Self medication and violence are the only coping mechanisms people like me grew up with.

Aside from having a speech disorder, I think I might have or have a higher chance of having PTSD, in this case both the 4th and 5th forms, Uncomplicated and Complex PTSD. I don't know why, but it's affecting my love life and why I'm STILL single and I don't have a wife or girlfriend or kids, even at 38 going on to 39 years old 🙂👍🤵‍♂️👰‍♂️👩‍❤️‍👨💒👫😘😍👧♀️♂️😡😭.

    I’m 17 now and i think i have PTSD, when i was 13 a person i used to admired was accused to something cruel, and it changed my brain in somewhat, because of that and she shock i became depressed, i started to cry suddenly, i overslept, and my mom noticed that then we went to a doctor and i was diagnosed with depression, i had to take many medications at age 13, i was just a kid, so of course my behaviours changed, i actually became more depressed with suicide thoughts, and i think because of my depressed behaviour i lost my friends because i scared them perhaps :( and it made me more depressed. Now i feel dead since 2020, i feel empty, and everything of 2019/2020, a song, a place i used to visit, everytime i listen or vist those places my heart starts to hurt a lot like i’m about to have a heart attack, i cry uncontrollably. In 2022 i used to have flashbacks of 2020s

    I'm a 27 years old man. My mind is in so much pain. Almost 4 months ago, in an extremely distressing and painful emotional situation, I hit my head against the headboard of my bed. Actually, that same day in the afternoon, I was with my girlfriend that I love so much. She always shared her talks with her other male coworkers and I was absolutely okay with that. I never showed any insecurity. Now almost 4 months ago, I was sitting with her in a resturant, and showed her the profile picture of my PhD female class fellow from whatsapp. And guess what? In a very disrespectful manner, she left the resturant immediately. That phd classmate of mine is married and has a daughter too. From afternoon till midnight, I kept on explaining to my girlfriend through whatsapp that my classmate is already married and I only talk to her in a very formal way. In the resturant, she had herself checked my messages and discovered nothing flirty or informal. I even sent my girlfriend the voice messages of that girl that the conversation was purely academic, related to phD classes. She did not listen at all and said extremely hurtful things. I don't know what happened to me that night, my girlfriend I loved so much not listening to me at all and showing apathy drove me insane and I smashed my head against the headboard of my bed in my room. Now I have a minor cut on my forehead. People can't really notice it but I so much wish it fades away over time. It has impacted my self esteem quite negatively. All the time, I am conscious of myself. Every morning I wake up and get scared by seeing myself in the mirror as it reminds me my disturbing situation. I repeatedly keep on asking myself questions like how could I do that to myself. But believe me, that moment was emotionally intensely suffocating and stressful for me. I wanted to scream alot to ease my pain that night but did not wish to disturb my parents.
    She used to tell me that men praise her beauty and I always showed no insecurity and laughed and told her that yes she deserves this appraisal. Don't know how could she show such mistrust while my conversation with my phd classmate was purely academic related to research work. Another important thing to mention here is that I have never ever checked the phone of my girlfriend till this very day. I always valued trust above everything.

      @clickertante9852 6 місяців тому +4

      No. Revenge will only cause more trauma. This creates a vicious circle. One person has to start stopping this never ending cycle. Therapy can help, also the knowledge and understanding of the autonomic nervous system, co-regulation and learning to self-regulation, mindfulness and finally the acceptance of what has happened to you. Don't misunderstand that. Accepting does not mean that you agree. It just means that you can't change what happened in the past. But you can learn to deal with it in a healthy way.

    Happened I seen are saw what seems like a month are days are really months ago are weeks so I'm lost and what seems like I was just in my room for a day are week is weeks are months I been in my room I don't talk to my family cause they just talk shit and I'm just waiting for a 30 day notice to cause I don't and won't come out of room with my PTSD and as I said why come out to hear them being negative and call me a stupid ass are retard and if I give them money I still got to live with being tortured and just all things that I think about along with my PTSD . This is definitely depressing and why I said I just woke up with my brother knocking on my door asking for a cellphone charger used the rest room brushed my teeth walk out the restroom and was like we're my brother go to them just talking shit about him and then me for know reason 😢🥺🙏😇🤐🤷😔😬😠😡🙄wish they understood having PTSD then my meds if I stop taking them I'll stay up for days cause of the night terrors I have sleeping of being tortured and when I take them I just want to sleep . I'll sleep 4 hours for every 24 hours I'm up most of time I just lay in bed thinking and I can't stop thinking I close my eyes and I fill like I was just torture months ago and as I said for my family saying my brother has not payed rent since last year is hard to believe that it's really possible that it's been that long then cause I lost 7 month and I thought I was in my room for 30 days only to be told I was in my room for 7 months so I get lost on my days hours months and I keep telling my family but they say get over it so if you have PTSD head trauma get it checked out Im trying to but I got no one to help me and if they do all I keep hearing is they need money move out I'm fucking stupid lazy like right now 😢😢😢😢🤐😔😠 just broke another flat screen t.v and my surround sound system cause I got no help and don't know what to do are go to and thought that by giving my family all my money last year would be coo so I can get a wall a room get set up to put my life back on track and I'm cleaning doing things that help me and them cause my mom husband keeps saying he's going to do this and that and a year gone by and shit still has not gotten done I'm so fucked up God help me

      Don't give up, whatever you can do, please get the space you need away from your family. You don't have to ex them out of your life, but being away from that toxicity will be so freeing for you. I know it's a struggle to get out, but you will be able to with persistence, and with healing to your wounds. I know it's not easy to heal in such an environment, but that give another reason to get away. Dont let people who are not willing to reason with you get you down in this world, there's so many of them. Manipulators will make you feel like it's your fault as a reaction to the disrespect they caused. I wish you the best of luck my friend, stay strong like a warrior, and wise as the dragon. 🐉⚔️
