(((((2bme)))))) Yes sadly this CAN and often DOES happen 2bme and YES sometimes it can take years to get to the truth unfortunately. And often people can be put on a drug programs that can make matters worse. I went through that myself and from where I am now knowing what I now know looking back and seeing the mistakes, well, it never did help my condition of PTSD at all, in fact it made it worse and that did not have to take place.

Unfortunately PTSD can present conditions and reactions in a patient that CAN be misunderstood as other disorders. And unfortunately, professionals DO make mistakes and JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS. And so can the people around the person who is truely struggling with PTSD.

Oh, I am sorry that you have experienced this, because the one thing you DO deserve is to feel safe, be understood and get the support and therapy you truely need. Hopefully that will take place now for you 2bme, I am very sorry you had to suffer through this and unfortunately you are not the only one that has experienced this.

(((((Hugs)))))
