Roxy, are you taking medication for your PTSD, depression and anxiety? That has helped me very much. It sometimes takes a while to find the right meds but if you have a good pdoc and you perservere, you should find a med or combination of meds that improve your PTSD symptoms (depression & anxiety) quite a bit.
Even with meds though I still have some symptoms, just not as severe. For me it is a matter of the right meds, therapy when needed due to too many life stressors, and then me just doing good things for myself like getting enough sleep, exercise, eating well, etc. If I do all that together I usually do okay, I can function fairly well. But the PTSD is always there to a greater or lesser extent.
