βI am not far ahead, but I want to say this: you are not crazy. Your body is trying to protect you, even if it feels wrong. Find one person who believes you. For me, it was my partner. She does not always understand, but she listens. And take small steps with the things that scare you. I still have nightmares, but I have more good days now. You can have them too.β
βTo anyone just starting with PTSD: I'm two years in and some days still knock me flat. What I can say is that the shaking doesn't last forever, and you learn your triggers. I keep a note on my phone of what helps, like walking a different way home and calling my sister when the dates come around. It's not fixed, but it's not the same as day one either. Find one person who gets it. That's what I'm trying to do.β
βIf you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are in 2023. I remember my body remembering before my mind does like it was yesterday. Some weeks I don't think about it at all. xβ
βI was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. Back then it was startling at loud noises. This morning I sang in the car. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.β
