I had the same reaction when I was diagnosed w/PTSD&I also told my T a lot of stuff that I'd never told anyone&I've had sporadic mental health care since I was 19. I'm now 40. I'm taking the advices given on some of the responses you recieved to heart as well. Unfortunately, until you get this out of your system&it's not quick or easy, you may find yourself having trouble in personal relationships. Family, friends, partners,kids,etc. If you're relating to no longer relating your usual way towards others, please PM me&I'll give you a book-that I'm not currently near-that could be of help. It's about imperfect relationships&the things we do to sabotage them subconsciously. The author doesn't state PTSD as a possible cause outright, but many of the exampled behaviors are the same as those w/PTSD.
