I realised something while reading in the forums here... for yrs I thought of myself as having PTSD and related symptoms....but from reading the posts I learned a few things. I don't only suffer from ptsd.... I thought everything was related... but from what I have seen, technically, I have ptsd, severe depression and anxiety issues, eating disorder, and I can add recently alcoholic! WOW.... things are a lot more complicated than I thought! I have been so focused on my ptsd and trying to be normal... I didn"t even concider everything else as serious problems.... how can I be soooo messed up and live normally! I know I have a tight bubble and I'm thinking maybe I have been giving myself the illusion of being "normal" by staying in my tight bubble.... I haven"t felt this overwhelmed and confused in a really loooong time!I think I have been in denial about A LOT of things.... it really isn't funny getting a reality check like this! OUCH!!!!
