I have PTSD and how I cope is that I write out my feelings or I cry. I just cry and hug a pillow cause I know I must get all these feeling's out if I'm going to heal at all. Writing helps me the most though and listening to music. I mostly listen to shoegaze and dream pop artists. They seem to take me away and all I feel happiness.
Music pretty much saved me from everything. If I didn't have music to listen too, I believe I'd be lost.
