I am finally (after 5 years) facing up to the diagnosis my doctor gave me of PTSD. In fact, because I have ignored it for so long I had forgotten about it til today (it occasionally pops into my mind) as I was going over the things that have been happening in my life recently, and what might be making me feel the way I do at the moment. At the time I was not on anti-depressants as I had recently had no1 child. My doc put me on some, and got me to see a psychologist (which I wasn't ready for at the time so that didn't help in any way). After that my depression was what was always focused on, and as I didn't (and still don't) know much about PTSD I just ignored it. What I'm hoping for here is to find out about how ppl deal with it- what helps, and stuff. I feel like I am ready to deal with it, and the issues surrounding it. I will be seeing my pdoc on Monday next week and I plan on reviewing all my meds with her then. Any help or advice greatly appreciated. Thank you.
