What I'm asking for is help with ways to cope.
I have night terrors almost every night, flashbacks, and severe depression. I need help and I feel as if every day, I'm just getting worse.
I don't know what to do anymore.
I know for sure I have PTSD nut I just don't know how to tell my pdoc.
Please help me, I begging.
I don't know how much longer I can live with the constant pain and feeling of worthlessness.
Hi

I've been going through what you have for the last 3.5 years. I have complex PTSD which is related to multiple childhood traumas. Due to having so many traumas it is taking a long time to work through all this. Seek therapy but also remember that it will take time and you won't be cured over night. From speaking to my T and research I have done, it seems that you have to go through the painful feelings in order to recover. Your mind and body only reveals the truth to you when you are ready to handle it. I hope this helps.

Peace
