NP with replying, that's what we do here at pc
Ok I understand the meds thing better, yes I agree, keeping your insulin levels under control is very important... that can affect your cognition too, remember.
If you do have PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) or anything near that, it won't get better on it's own. The sooner you seek help, the quicker you will begin to heal, and the "easier" it will be. It becomes very tough later on.
Seeing a counselor/therapist should be different than trying to talk to people IRL (in real life) who are more focussed on themselves than trying to help you figure out what you need in your life

Yes, it can be difficult to begin, but once you find someone who understands you and cares about your healing, it is well worth it. TC! JD
