My PTSD won't leave me alone the past 6 days. mine is from SA from multiple people and I am afraid of men. Just looking for some support from someone who has PTSD, too, to maybe give me some advice, here.

      I understand what you are going through. I have suffered SA and just all around abusive relationships. I tend to find myself in those kinds of relationships because my self worth was so low. I'm trying really hard right now to focus on me and do things that spark joy within myself. I'm always here if you wanna talk.

      PTSD is hard to deal with. It has definitely disrupted my relationship with men. I still get triggered by things to this day. But it has gotten better over time. Breath work, sensory work and meditation have all helped me out a lot. I also went to group therapy for SA and that was actually one of the best things I did to help me move forward from my PTSD.

      It has already been said, but you are not alone. With PTSD sometimes all you can do is just fight through it and fall back on your support system. In the past that's what I've had to do everytime my PTSD comes back around.

        @Somatosedreams this is so true. I live overseas from my family and they have always been my support system. now I need to learn to be my own support system and it’s the hardest thing ever.

      I can only tell you that you are not alone. I’m still fighting through mine and unfortunately it has randomly decided to pop up in the best relationship I have ever had. Everything was going fine and then with the flip of a switch about 2 weeks ago all of the sudden I doubted him and my PTSD popped back up and I began to feel unsafe. He is always there. Always picking me up and believes in me and hasn’t given up on me yet. But my mind won’t let me be happy and just accept it and be happy and feel safe and secure again. What scares me is wondering just how long he is going to be able to handle it? He’s seen me at my best and now at my worst and I can only imagine how hard it must be for him.

      I don't know what help I can give with advice. I can tell you that you are not alone and I see you! PTSD is hard and the reasons are all horrible events. You can talk to me if you need to. I will try my best to help
