I have seen things like that and it terrifies me also to a point that I just shake within as though I am so cold.
PTSD is hard to live with without all the other stuff that goes with it. You did right to try to reach for your phone. I understand how the descriptive words used are how you deal with it. How one might be able to describe to someone for help. I remember things happening right in broad daylight and nothing happening also. Our windows being opened and the yelling and screaming, and the nieghbors sitting outside, yet no-one came to help.
thelionkinglives--I understand how you feel, and I hope you feel a little better sharing and getting it out. I know it was hard. Thank you for trusting us to share.

Thank you guys for letting me. Because I'm immediately typing as soon as i can to keep it fresh. By her asking that question allows me to go back & analyze why did I say it that way...In this case I'm comfortable with the words I chose....I would have been conserned more if it was only HIS race I referenced. Because then maybe that mean's it's triggering feelings from the time I was jumped by the black guys.
This is 2 in 2 days & starting new meds. The thing I'm the most embarrassed about is for some reason I didn't get out of the care...I have in the past but past deeds don't excuse me from not doing it this time
So I sat live part of the heard watching basically. I don't usually do that, it was pretty brutal
