I want to tell you is from my own perspective, and what I did is not the same as what another might be. YES, I HAVE PTSD in large part due to shocking, traumatic and sudden loss. Have had PTSD for 24 years now. I tried to take a dirt nap several times but I survived and continue to survive due to the intervention of God and nothing else. All I said was, "Help me!" and He did.

God gives YOU grace to live through it all. Whether or not you feel close to Jesus, ask Him anyway! He's always waiting for your invitation.

Take care!
