You did fine, anyone who experiences PTSD understands that overwhelming reaction that can be scary. Yes reactions can present themselves in strong surprising ways. I am sorry you had that bad experience, it can be very lonely when that happens. Just know that you did recover and can recover, that is a start. It is ok to come here in a panick, people here understand what it means and how it is nice to have someone there to just say, I hear you, it will pass, try to do your best to relax, it is very easy to feed into it when it comes because it is scary. I hope you are seeing a good therapist that you can talk to, that is very important when you have PTSD, you truely cant do it alone you have to learn about it and disarm those many things that you saw.

Welcome to PC, there are very nice supportive people here that are very understanding.

I hope you have calmed down and can get a restful night.

Thanks for this!
