It is true that if someone is struggling with PTSD they can be very sensitive and it's not unusual for two individuals struggling with PTSD to trigger each other. It depends on the conversation and individuals, however, that is something that can change with interacting with anyone. It can be helpful to interact with others who are challenged and getting help and gaining that can encourage you and help you not feel so alone with the challenge. Each person is different in how they may respond to therapy and most likely your therapist is aware of that and concerned that you may be influenced away from a therapy that may help you even if it did not help someone else.
Do you think this site and interacting in these forums has helped you?

I think it sometimes does help and then sometimes it is triggering. That's no ones fault it's part of learning how to cope. Mental health healing is not linear. There are constant ups and downs. I'm not sure what her intention was, she said I was being quiet so maybe she was trying to make me talk by pissing me off. I don't know. I think it is just her lack of understanding the dynamics of a forum.
