and it just got worse I'm struggling with what I can see myself I'm yet to go to my GP I'm fighting with Anemia hats the side effects I can determine its that Bad I'm getting spots bruising I need VitC and Iron I hope once I see my GP I'll turn it all around again I adore to smile even if I have no one to see it I have lot of love to give this world and I'm ever so intelligent so I don't wish for myself to waste away I'm alert coherent

and it'd be nice to make new friends and see I'm not all alone maybe another sufferer or anyone would wish to talk? I'd love to be a help too. I do like to stay to myself however it's a comfort I just signed up today. mhm It troubles me each time I'm ill I get sick too fast to catch up on it

I've never seen this before sometimes its confusing you're YES physically traumatized not of the mindset I understand to cope with things yet my body's struggling to cope on its own you don't know then it happens it just does I think from my own point of views finally its letting go of all the stress I just hope its not to come back and bite me when I need to be the strongest physically situations happen to me all the time I just cant always prepare for in day to day life or big obstacles I'd like to avoid.

Dear AmizAussieGirl1989~

The first thing I noticed was you giving help to another - CatLadyInTraining - and also some of the things you suggested, like keeping a journal and trying to understand feelings with external activities like a behavioral chart.

You have obviously thought abut these things.

I'm sorry your family has treated you so badly, it casts a hugs shadow on life, leaving one alone, in greif and most often with feelings of little self worth and anger. Mine got rid of me too.

Trying to deal with all this can take outside help. You mentioned therapy, may I ask if you are currently under any form of treatment? In my own case, which was occupation-related, I never improved, in fact kept getting worse, until I had competent medical help.

I really hope you do go see about whatever is causing the bruising. While it could be anemia, it could also be other things too, and a proper diagnosis and treatment would seem the logical and safest way to go.

I look forward to talking with you some more

Dear Qing (with a wave to AmizAussieGirl1989)~

I'd like to welcome you here to the Forum. Having childhood trauma can have an enormous effect on a person's life and may need proper treatment for its effects to be lessened.

I'm very pleased you had the sense and courage to see a GP about this and if a psychologist has been recommended that's good. Trying to deal with everything without proper help is very hard, sometimes impossible. As I said to AmizAussieGirl1989 above I could not get better without help.

PTSD is just a label for a reaction coming about due to something in one's past life. It's trauma, and there is no need to worry about what it is called. The movies do not give an accurate portrayal of such things.

One of the things that can happen is not wanting to talk to others, so a psych is a good person to tell, they are used to such things and can make suggestions on how to cope and get better.

Do you have to wait long for you appointment?
