I went to therapist and found out i have ptsd.

how do you feel about that?
Posted 8/28/2007 9:00 PM (GMT 0)
relieved in a way but at the same time kind of upset about it. I only had one therapist appointment so i guess im gonna learn as i go.

Random,

Good attitude and I know you can do this.  You know where to turn when you need help. right here. :)

yeah you will conquer it! Sometimes news like that is a bit relieving and stressing at the same time (if that makes sense). Like the unknown part is maybe a bit resolved, but the feelings and emotions are present and maybe some new ones come into play. Be good to yourself!

I was advised to keep a diary and until recently I haven't bothered but it does really help to get things off your chest, even if no one else is going to read it. My family think I narrowly missed out on a nervous breakdown but my biggest problem is talking and sharing my problems - but lesson learned - it does help to talk and in my situation, better to a stranger than my husband!

I went to the doctor and was put on zoloft for depression/anxiety. I read that it tends to make people tired so I took my first tonight at 8

Random,

Good Idea and hopefully you have a good nights rest.  Keep in mind it takes these drugs a bit to kick in 3-4 weeks maybe longer.

Keep posting and stay with us.

I do hope the zoloft does the trick for you .....

Keep posting and letting us know
As Kitt said it takes time for these meds to fully kick in and work

the zoloft is a life saver. In a very subtle way my anxiety is beginning to lift as well as the depression. for me subtle is a big deal. Im finally looking at things with perspective and understanding without second guessing or spiraling my thoughts. im feeling better and i can only imagine its gonna get much better
