I sight needed
I had a craniotomy 2014. Acquired TBI. My husband is a veteran. He too has ptsd but there is no way he will admit it. I have ptsd too. The horrible world situation is too much for me. I can no longer discuss it with him. It is triggering. But he does not stop. He discusses with his brother daily. I have

Hello I have Complex PTSD, depression and serious anxiety problems. I am tired of dealing with all of this everyday. I would never inflict harm on myself or others though. I joined this group so I could maybe have people to talk to........if I can help others, that would be great too!

Feeling Shame...
My PTSD symptoms include an overwhelming shame. It can be overwhelming at times. Part of it is shame for the things that happened to me, and part of it is shame for the things that I truly did. I know we "sufferers" can manifest things differently, and for me my shame is overwhelming at times. How

Intrusive thoughts of Ex
I can’t get over my ex for the life of me and it’s almost been a year . Thoughts pop up of her all day long , I get flashbacks of our relationship, fear at times , scared to leave my house since she lives close to me . What is this ? Trauma ? PTSD ? C-PTSD? It’s super sad . I’ve done EMDR

What is ‘fawning’ - the lesser known of the 4 F's? How is it related to trauma, PTSD and the ‘fight or flight’ response?
[i]You have probably heard of “fight or flight” responses to distressing situations. You may also be familiar with the tendency to “freeze”.

C-PTSD?
I'm looking at a potential C-PTSD diagnosis with abandonment issues. Any advice/experiences/general knowledge anyone has would be SUPER appreciated.
