The post about PTSD was phenomenal. It gave me chills. I plan on using this knowledge when I visit with families. I even shared it with the psychologist that visits my patients. I had tears in my eyes.Last year at this time I had several major life events happen all at once. It caused me to lose sleep. On average every night I slept maybe 2 hours. I ended up on medication for depression and anxiety. I had a therapist tell me I was suffering from PTSD. I laughed her off and never went back. I ended up pulling myself out of emotional and physical crisis. But when I read that article today. It was a slap in the face. Wow just wow

I had a couple of close bereavements then a sibling try to kill themselves in a very dramatic way. I know I've never really recovered. Something in the article really struck a cord with me. You feel kind of embarrassed that you should be coping better when there are so many people out there going through worse. One time when I was feeling shit and was talking to a close friend I said 'there are worse things in life'. He just said 'yeah, but this is the worst thing in YOUR life'. He's a really good friend.

Your friend is very wise. When I was in college 200 yrs ago lol I remember a professor telling us future social workers to start where the client is...those words I still remember. I hope it's made me a better social worker. I read that article again today. I try having a quiet moment every morning. Usually I read a devotional or something inspirational. Today I read that article.

Wow just wow My mom is a child psychiatrist, and I always tell people the biggest thing I remember her saying as I was growing up and people would talk about PTSD, was that, "PTSD is the great pretender". She would explain how PTSD, especially in children, can look like a host of other things. Depression, ADHD, anxiety, ODD, etc., when what is really going on in the re-wiring that happens from trauma combined with a lack of help for the kid to understand and deal with that trauma, as well as the after-effects. It blows the minds of anyone she tells it to, until they really think/read on it, and they then have that same lightbulb moment she did early in her career.
