As some of you know I have been dealing or trying to deal with PTSD. the incident was almost a year ago, old boring story.

Got back in to seeing my old T once I moved back home and that’s helped we have specific plans to deal with it, unravel it all.

I see him every 2 weeks we are trying for weekly once his schedule allows

But... the past week + I have gone from a angry rage for almost a year to a tearful depressed mess. I have no desire to wake up, ( If my body didn’t scream in pain for being in bed so long I wouldn’t get up at all )and drag myself out of bed.

When I’m not all tearful I feel so snappy. Ugh.

The world is too loud in my mind, voices are getting stronger. I have the itchy crawl out of my skin feeling just to make things more fun

I see my T Wednesday thankfully.

I should be happy that it’s been about 18 months since depression has hit me longer than a couple weeks, And I am trust me.

“This” Depression has hit so hard and fast it’s kind of a shock to be honest.

It's honestly not fair and I was hoping you'd feel better after the AC stuff was over. Please talk to me about this, ok? I really care about you. I've been selfish and talking about myself and the "boy" and im sorry. :/ I've been a bad friend. But I AM here for you! Talk to me whenever you need to.

I am sorry you are going through this rough period. The right T can help a lot in your situation. I can also get over run by negative thoughts and emotions and physical sensations but that is just a stream that can be redirected with the right coping skills to more positive thoughts. I don't know how much of this is PTSD or how much is bipolar.

I don't know the back story on this having been gone for awhile but I know how supportive you always are of everyone and don't deserve to be dealing with this. So, I will offer a and much in hopes of things get better for you quickly.
