Thanks Petunia and Sleeps for the links!

Sleeps, you're actually quite normal. Withdrawal is part of PTSD and we all do it to some extent. PTSD hit me hard and I was bed ridden and afraid to leave the house for nine months...a total recluse. I'm now only down a couple of days a week...fingers are crossed... and will frequently leave my home. And, it's usually something that has triggered me which causes me to go back to bed.

But, what gets me out of bed is taking responsibility for my actions. (I hope this next part doesn't anger anyone...this is just how I deal with my situation). I feel that I can either continue to be victimized or act responsibly and move on with my life. I would really love to post more and discuss this if anyone else is open to it. Must go do something and I'll have to come back later.... Hate being interrupted....need to work on that.
