I have been a victim of cyber bullying when I posted an opinion on a video without thinking that it.would cause any problems because of what had never occurs to me. I was smear campaign on the video has false report made against me meant to intimidate me. Now I have a hard time being on social media without going into full blown panic attack or anxiety attack before the flashback begin to happen. Could being a victim of cyber bullying cause a person to have pstd?

I can’t diagnose ptsd, but it made you feel very anxious about venturing on social media again. It makes sense when you had such a bad experience before. Maybe you should stay off social media. What good does it do for you to make post comments on videos anyway, especially when it opens you up to cyber bullies?

I like to watch The Bachelor. One of the former contestants came on to voice how the cyber bullying has gotten way too vicious. It’s out of control.

That true. Most of the cyber bullying has stop since I left those video and deleted almost all of my comment that did nothing to trigger to cyber bullying. But lately the things that were said to me had been popping in my head and causing me to have anxiety and very paranoid.

Yes! I was bullied online by a couple of women...it was so bad that I ended up IP. I still have an anxious reaction when I think about how I felt when those women tormented me.

I don't know if you are or are not a teen. But here's a link to an article, from PC's archives, that addresses the issue of cyberbullying. It is targeted toward teens. But I see no reason it couldn't apply to adults as well:

I will keep this in mind.

I’m still worried about whether or not the person who had been cyber bullying three years ago will hurt me even though I has delete my gmail account or that because of the slander that my new gmail will be affected. Even though I never threaten anyone. The trolls has violated the rules.

I talked to my nurse practitioner who tells me that I show signs of having ptsd.

[Buffy01]

I wish that I could avoid having flashbacks.
