Hi everyone!
I am a 49 yo femaile with PTSD. A recent event, which I now realize was a "trigger" motivated me to find help. After a couple of false starts with a therapists/programs that were not helpful, I'm hoping that I found a therapist as GREAT as I think she is yesterday.
I don't want to mess with the therapeutic process that has begun, so will not go into detail about the traumas that got me where I am today in this post, but they are far reaching, from age 4 until the present. Things have gotten to the point where I am a slave to the anxiety and the behaviors that result from the anxiety.
Suffice it to say, HYPERVIGILANCE STINKS!
To top things off, I have a 15 yo with several issues (Asperger's, ADHD and Mood disorder NOS), so I think I will be visiting several of the forums in this community.

Oh, and I also have an incurable muscle disease! Yay me!
Nice to meet you all. Hope everyone has a peaceful day!
Bummer
