In this room, we all fight PTSD. But, does it ever go away? Do people get "all better", or is it a lifelong sort of illness? I hate to refer to cPTSD as an "illness" (because I feel like that implies that something is wrong with me), but it sure isn't a walk in the park either.

I don't know what I'm saying here. I just feel hopeless. And I'm SO tired of feeling this way!
I feel the same way. I have come to peace with not fitting in, and honestly, I realize how incredibly special I am. You are too! I am suffering from PTSD that just happened. The event is ongoing, and I can't find solace. I can't work through it yet. I have lost trust in people, law enforcement, the government the very people who were supposed to "protect us".
