Hello. I'm new to this site. I was recently diagnosed with PTSD, about 4 months ago. I was a productive and successful employee working for a high-profile company. After dealing with debilitating migraines for about a year, I had tried everything to get some relief; accupunctuntue, physical therapy, steroid injections, a mouthguard, medications, even Botox. I do have a neurologist, but was also referred to a therapist for depression, since nothing was working. My therapist then diagnosed me with PTSD. The supervisor that I had worked for was very combative and prone to rageful outbursts. This triggered the PTSD and the headaches. I went on short-term disability for 3 months. During this time, my supervisor left the company. He had quite a reputation there and it is amazing that he was there as long as he was. I tried to go back, but could not function. I had a migraine almost everyday, while dealing with the panic and stress. I have applied for long-term disability in December and was terminated from the company, the day after. I am waiting for a response on the ltd. I use to be so productive. Now, I can barely function. I need to work, but don't see how I possibly can. Life is bleak.
