I think she is saying you have PTSD. Sometimes when a professional tells me something I need to hear, I can't hear it because I'm so scared of hearing it. Maybe that's happening to you? PTSD symptoms are normal reactions to abnormal events. You ain't crazy if you have PTSD. You're just scared. It takes the body a while to work through things. About meeting the criteria for PTSD, it may just take time for the diagnosis to become clear . . . especially if you have difficulty talking. I know I did . . . I do have trouble talking. Looks like you are in good hands with your counselor. Keep up the good work! (((((((Huggs)))))
