Hi, Sky Dancer!
So very sorry to hear hear of all the trouble you had with your neighbor!
You sound like someone it'd like to talk with. Like me you suffer from PTSD that stems from various sources. Like me you've found mediation a very good coping mechanism, however unlike you haven't stuck with my practice. As a result I regressed into isolation and drug use for a while. Thanks to therapy my life is moving a long and I've quit drugs and am starting to think of dating again.
I do worry that some women might it off putting to be with someone who lives on Social Security and had PTSD. Oh, and I do wonder how the PTSD will affect my future relationship.
Any advice you or anyone else that reads this post has to give will be greatly appreciated. In the meantime I'll just have to carry on and see my therapist on regular basis and work with her on this.
