(((ThisWayOut))),

PTSD/Complex PTSD can most definitely be tiring. I can so relate to going to therapy and having the time run out or have an interuption and end up feeling like the session did not provide time enough to cover and conclude as needed. That alone at times triggered me as in my past there were important things I needed and when I reached out for help others would claim, "not now, don't have time". But, there are other challenges that come over me in that "my hurts" are not important or my input is not good enough or wrong because it simply has to be the other person or group that is right not me.

What makes PTSD even more challenging is that now that someone is genuinely suffering, the average person responds to it with comments that are dismissive, condescending, and invalidating, intrusive, critical and disrespectful. That can bring out "anger" in someone struggling or it can bring on a ptsd cycle that is a reminder of how bad it felt when someone was being traumatized. And this is why people who struggle begin to isolate and avoid because it really is "tiring" if a trigger happens and it leads to experiencing a reaction that the sufferer doesn't want to deal with because it can get exhausting.

When you have had a few days struggling it's important to allow self to have a time out and get rest. It can get lonely in that unless someone struggles, they don't understand the challenge and tend to get dismissive.

It is good that you have a place to vent where you can be around others who understand the challenge.
