[quote=Anonymous]PTSD, nightmares about where I grew up, and memories that will never quite come to the surface. I'm almost 46. I've been dealing with this since I was 7. My dad died when I was 11, but the horrific nightmares started years before. There is a PTSD medication that can help with the nightmares, I went on it, but it reacted with my heart medication and I had to stop taking it. I also have Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, and am disabled. I'm a cutter, but my husband helps me, so I haven't cut for a long time. I cover those with music tats. I listen to heavy metal, which really helps, for some reason. This is my life. I cannot talk to a therapist. I can't get the words out. I can talk to my husband and to my adult sons. They are my therapists, and they lighten the mood and make me laugh, and know that I can survive another day. My 12 yr old is also a bright light in my life, and so are my two daughters. I couldn't live without my family to help me. [/quote]
