How do you manage the hyperactivity/ hyper vigilance that comes from PTSD and ADHD?

      Hi Noelle! I am hyper vigilant too! When eating out I always pick a table and a chair that ensures I can see everybody and nobody can come up behind me unexpectedly. My husband has a really loud, boisterous, family. 16 people get together every week including 5 kids. The screaming and slamming sounds make my heart stop and my eyes flick all over the place. So I would say exposure. I am slowly getting used to those sounds and know they aren’t trying to kill me. Not saying I’m perfect, had a panic attack at his others house last week so..
