Hopelessness
I've been diagnosed officially with PTSD this week which is not a shock. I begin EMDR sessions next week so hope those are able to help. I have these bouts of feeling hopeless. I'm trying not to go too hard on myself but just feel that things will never get easier. Cry myself to sleep most nights with

Barium Swallow and hernia diagnosis.
Having been referred for a Barium swallow, I decided to go for private appointment. which I had today. The radiologist said that I have a hernia, (small) he described it but is more than likely to be the cause of the throat clearing issues, i suspect from acid reflux. So, now next to find out what

I'm so tired of these tension headaches which are causing anxiety to hit the roof. I hope it's nothing wrong with my brain🤷🏻
Been getting them although my CAT scan was normal but I have always been suffering from GAD and PTSD that I have been clinically diagnosed with. Are anyone going through this too? Please let me know it will help me feel better

Medicinal cannabis?
As well as PBC I have fibromyalgia and complex PTSD. I’ve also been experiencing some major and unusual anxiety and depression in perimenopause, different from prior experiences of anxiety and depression. I saw a new GP today and he was suggesting medicinal cannabis which has been found to help many

GERD help
Hi I have been diagnosed with GERD apparently but I am not convinced. Lanzaprole does absolutely nothing. My ears sting virtually all the tjme, discomforts in shoulder blades and same area at breast bone. Any other medications work for anyone? I am getting so anxious about it all the Doc had put

Hello! New to the group
I was diagnosed with depression for about a decade and have been taking medicine since then. I also believe I have anxiety and A-PTSD. I am curious about how much a medicine helps or supports with depression because I feel like it helps but not all the time. Some days are difficult and some less or numb

In need of support for information
Im so sorry for the long post. In November of 2023 I started noticing difficulties when swallowing. Stomach pain, discomfort. I went to the doctor and was order to get a barium swallow, which showed some narrowing on my esophagus. Then I got an endoscopy that confirmed and benign stricture on my esophagus

polymorphic eruption of pregnancy
Hi I am 6dp5dt. From the beginning I noticed a rash in lower part of abdomen. It was later appeared also near belly button (then disappeared), then under breast (then disappeared) and the only mark left is the lower abdomen one. Reading online made me realize it might be associated to PEP (or PUPPP

Pretty Lady PTSD Mary
Have had a breakdown in 97 due to flashbacks not remembered and abuse done by family members. I always remember the abuse done by my father who was a monster.Only now there was more abuse by him to add to my story. PTSD opened doors to numerous mental health issues along with unfortunately physical health

Update: post-radiation and New meds
Hello Friends and warriors! Dragonfly is updating the latestest treatment... Radiation to the sacrum and L5 (10 treatments) ended on Dec 4th but since then I've had a rollercoaster of side effects...mostly stiffness and muscle spasms that catch me unawares when I get up or sit down. I truly thought

Hi... I've never really opened up about my PTSD to anyone. I never knew how to explain it nor knew what it was. I realized I have triggers, but never defined them as trauma until a few years ago. For me it stems from childhood back in my family household; my father's alcoholism, and my first relationship

PTSD versus CPTSD
the DSM does not recognise CPTSD as a diagnosis. Here in NZ if you have PTSD from multiple trauma it is diagnosed as such. I’m interested in other countries interpretation of the diagnostic DSM manual and why they diagnose CPTSD as opposed to PTSD from multiple trauma. A psychiatrist, I believe is

Driving/DVLA and PP
Basically to cut a long story short I had pp in 2016 - didn’t drive for the recommended 3 months after coming out of psychosis as mandated by DVLA. However, they then made me renew my licence year on year from 2016…anyone else had this? I feel this is highly unfair as I’m only likely to have another

PTSD, Anxiety, ADHD??
I think I fit into several categories on these forums. For me they are all one in the same. My anxiety has led to PTSD, both PTSD and Anxiety have magnified my ADHD. Or was it the other way around? Untangling which one happened first is hard to say. Now, I am in a support group for substance use disorder

Does anyone relate to sleeplessness related to dreams and nightmares about labor, birth, and PP? I know I probably have PTSD, as I've had a lot of dissociation and derealization since my episode a year ago, but the intrusiveness of the trauma memories and fears is new, as of a couple of weeks ago.

Getting close to 2nd baby
Hi everyone So I'm 15 days away from my induction date for baby number 2. I had ppp in 2019 and was treated on MBU. I'm giving birth in the same hospital with MBU in case of reoccurrence of pp. My anxiety has definitely increased in the last week or so, and I'm not currently on any medication. Just

Getting off Zyprexa
Hello everybody! Hope things are well for you all. Thank you for being here and sharing your stories! It is really a precious place to be after surviving PPP. I had my PPP in October last year and since then have been treated with Zyprexa (Olanzapine). I was on 5 mg for 1,5 months, then it was reduced

This is my first post and I really don’t know how or where to start. Any suggestions would help.
I have depression and ptsd. December was a very lonely time for me. No family left and I just moved to a new city and I’m having a hard time finding my place. I have two dogs that give me great joy. Thanks for reading.
