Hey Perditrix .
Really great introduction . Love the way you write . I must say that you make my issues seem like a tiny gnat bite rather than a massive wound . You lost your sight ! Well bless you for staying so strong through all you have been through . It's inspiring .
It's taken me a ridiculous amount of time to finally recognise my lifelong issues as complex ptsd . I couldn't define why continually struggled ,panicked and got depressed or why I would suddenly crash in mood ,freak out and disassociate or even developmentally regress on a regular basis .
I think mainly my ignorance was due to misdiagnosis and well meaning friends and family trying to convince me I was ok and my past was irrelevant.
I knew my childhood had been very abusive but I minimised it.
I identify with the loneliness. I have become something of a recluse and binge eater .I'm trying hard to fight it and to push at the barriers of my own crazy prison.
Anyway today you give me hope .
From one newbie to another ....
If I can help . Let me know
