So far neither the meds or therapy have really helped me deal with my ptsd. I try to do things that will convince me I'm safe now. For example I have a fear of men and now I have a male best friend because we spent so much time together.

Therapy is the best thing I have found. But it will be hard and uncomfortable, but you aren’t alone. I’m here if you need someone to talk to 🖤 stay strong and remember that if you lived through the actual abuse, you can live through the healing

I process it the best I can through my hobbies. Writing, drawing, etc. I also met someone who found it really helpful to make video logs! Talk at a camera and say the things out loud

I recently confronted the family members who caused my first major trauma. Once I got to a point where I could calmly address how they hurt me it felt liberating. I know not everyone has this option. Therapy helped a lot to get me to this point. I also currently take Venlafaxine for anxiety and recently started Vyvanse for ADHD. Journaling my feelings and writing a letter (I never gave to those who hurt me) helped too. I've also done meditating and try to keep myself busy with hobbies. If I'm feeling strong emotions I acknowledge them and allow them to be what they are. I'm working on not taking the negative emotions out on other people.

Please just keep me posted.. I want to feel better too.

I've found that moving away from the problems I had really helped, but I still have the same problems inside that I can't get away from. I take meds to keep the anxiety attacks at bay and I don't think it will ever go away, I know that everyone around me that helped me is all gone ( passed away) and I keep myself isolated because most people think I'm crazy if I talk about it. Things that trigger my anxiety attacks can be a little of nothing. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
