Yes, it takes time to figure PTSD out. I was so confused by it for quite a while. I agree, others do not understand the amount of work it can take to do the self care when struggling with PTSD. I always remind others who are stuggling to be really patient with self, it really takes time to work through the PTSD and the triggers it can present that come as such a surprise and can be so confusing.
