Title: Such a hard time coping and understanding
Post by: BigBoots on November 19, 2015, 05:53:28 PM
I'm really having a tough time coping with the C-PTSD and i still do not understand all of the feelings and symptoms which I am experiencing.

Three years of the immediate danger has passed but the fear and numbness i feel inside is just as real as if it were yesterday. I cannot sleep and walk the floor for hours throughout the night and at other times I can be sat just doing nothing in particular and then suddenly I'm gripped with the most indescribable fear and the most terrible flashbacks.

I had hoped that with time it would have gotten better not worse. 

Does everybody suffer like this to a lesser or greater extent?
