I forced myself back to the basics, healthy food and exercise. It helped me sleep better and the anxiety isn't as much this weekend. I have hope. I am on a cancellation list at my T's, so I might get in to see him before Thurs., it was of his wanting though, because I was so distraught Thurs. But baby steps for me. I even bought the expensive cut up fruit and veggie trays at the store, so I could eat healthy without much effort, no excuses now.

Congratulations-- Good for you. I've been going through a hard time and just riding it out- just holding on. After reading your post, it has inspired me to work at feeling better-- getting back to the basics. Thanks

Thanks Mick,

It is amazing how just going back to the basics helps. Last night I sleep better than ever, had weird dreams, but not traumatic ones. I am going to the gym now, I have too, I just do. I have to overcome this beast of PTSD.

GOod luck Mick, get back to the basics! I know how hard it is.
