Gr.

My PTSD seemed to be in remission for a good six months. Now flashbacks,
nightmares, hypervigilance, ect...has all returned.

So frustrated. Just needed to vent.

Something must have happened to trigger you badly, do you know what it might have been? I am sorry to hear you are struggling again. The good news is that you went for a long time feeling better, means you can do that again. Are you under a lot of stress right now? If you can track this down and resolve it you may regain your momentum.

as openeyes says, its a temporary setback. you know you can come out of it.

i was doing well for a long time as well. then i ran into my dentist at a fundraiser and he triggered me. Pissed me off. After crying all night, the symptoms persisted thru out the next week. T say the switch got flipped and wasnt resetting itself. Try vigorous exercise, he says. I was so angry after being so well for so long that I blamed my dentist. He triggered it, I figured it was his responsibility to make it better. So I called his office and made an appt to talk to him. It was an odd conversation for sure, him only knowing me as that patient that dissociates when she gets dental work, but he was kind and understanding as I explained things and it worked. The switch reset and all the symptoms were gone.

good luck to you!

A bit too familiar for me to give objective feedback.

I am in the same situation right now, PTSD has been under control -somewhat- for months, now it's like worse than before and I feel like I'm suffocating, helpless, hopeless.

I'm so sorry you're going through this, all I know is that the feeling itself doesn't allow me to think clearly therefore it doesn't matter what I know or do not about myself, it just hurts and that's louder than anything else.

Hope this goes away very soon.
Thanks for this!
