Help for trauma and PTSD in Iran
From people who came through it
“Not sure if this makes sense. Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I wrote down what I wanted to say before the appointment because I always freeze. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
river.tired · been through trauma and ptsd“To 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.”
Bong from Taguig · been through trauma and ptsd“I 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.”
Sunita H · been through trauma and ptsd“Please be gentle with yourself, I wasn't, and it made everything harder. Therapy took a few goes to find the right person and don't give up after one so and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.”
