I too am what I also call hypersensitive. Everything will be just fine and out of no where I am at a boiling point from irrational irritability. All voices and sounds at the moment seem to be so high pitch and mashed together like it's all being yelled into my ears from a megaphone. When you have these episodes is it exclusive to just noise affecting you or does every sense kick in?? For me once I reach that point then even every movement angers me and if anyone is in my bubble the anxiety flies thru the roof I literally lock myself away in a quiet place alone at that point and practice mindfulness and/or just enjoy the still silence until I calm back down. Otherwise I lash out at people and feel so guilty afterwards because they aren't doing anything wrong and I can't expect everyone to just freeze and put their lives on hold or feel my wrath..I have to remind myself it's not their fault I have this condition and just because I suffer from it doesn't mean they have to. IT HELPS ALOT THOUGH if you can get the people closest to you to read and learn a little about it at least so they 1 don't hold it against you or take it personal if you lash out a little and 2 they get a tiny perspective from our side and understand even if it's just a small amount more what we are going thru and why...I give you PROPS tho for sure because I'm not proud of it but I would of made that bird disappear by any means necessary by now.

RE - Re-experiencing Trauma / Re: Confirmation of my C-PTSD and emotional flashbacks

Hey everyone,
I am brand new to forum support groups. Also just recently found out c-ptsd and EFs exist after living with so many symptoms for 15+ years since it started with childhood trauma and throughout my young adult life endured further traumas. Which is how I got to where im at now. The EFs, social anxiety, deep depression, and never ending overwhelming loniness. I also have similar family issue. I have a big family but we are all dysfunctional and damaged so no sense of belonging there so I realized I've been searching for the void and blindly filling it. Which has lead to the loss of MANY people I valued SO much and topping it off with finding out my value to them was chump change more than half the time. This post made me realize more than ever the main family I considered as my own (my ex of 8yrs family) is one of my biggest most damaging triggers. My ex has come back into my life weve become close friends again over the past year since my last breakup (July 1st last year) so not only is that effecting and triggering me but the 3 yr relationship that just ended last year was very very pyschologically, physically, verbally abusive..a narcissist I came to find out so the massive trauma on top of that explains why I'm SO paralyzed mentally and physically the majority of my days to the point I can hardly leave the house. Can't work, so staying with friends....THANK YOU FOR SHARING!! THE MORE IM READING THE MORE AIR IM BEING ABLE TO BREATH ALL OF A SUDDEN.
