Ptsd (sleep, pain, effect, therapy)

[txtqueen]

I'm not posting my whole story here. Let's just say I had a traumatic experience and a lot of the stuff I've been going through is really painful.
Think it might be PTSD. Either someone who is licensed to handle that type of thing or someone who going trough it would be nice to talk to. And I don't want to open up my whole story on a message board.

Please dm so it doesn't become a nightmare thread.

Google "Counselors" and "Psychologists" in your area together with the words "trauma therapy" and "EMDR". "EMDR" is a technique that's very quick and effective at clearing PTSD. It should only take a few sessions to getting back on track and feeling much better. No discussion of the traumatic events is required; the technique goes directly to the subconscious mind to remove the pain from the memories.

Good luck, OP.

I started EMDR last week for my PTSD. If you are interested in hearing about my experience with it DM me any time.

If you are still interested OP the EMDR treatment is working. I may try cannabis as well. Still having problems sleeping.
