I`ve been recently diagnosed with PTSD and Mild Depression, spring this year. For over 10 years i`ve been suppressing these emotions, parental neglect and childhood trauma without fully realizing it myself, you could say i gotten comfortable with my own agony. I get panic attacks like one or twices a week. The best speech i could give someone who dont know how it all feels is *It`s like a pitch dark cloud constantly hanging above you, you never know when it all gonna pour down on you with heavy rain, as the view around you get foggy and dulls your outlook on the world with greyish colors.*

Thanks for the validation of the trauma. It happened a few months ago, and although many people told me it was a traumatic event, I kept telling myself it wasn't that bad, and even joking about it. But every time I hear the sound I heard when it happened, I have a panick attack that gets me unable to do anything for a long moment. And although I've been getting better, I still have to get used to the fact that this sound does not equal my trauma being back. So thanks !

"Trauma is personal, it does not disappear if it is not validated. When it is ignored or invalidated, the silent screams continue internally, heard only by the one held captive. When someone enters the pain and hears the screams, healing can begin." - Danielle Bernock

I've been through two main traumatic experiences in my life: narcissist abuses for 5 years (when I was 15, until almost my 20s) and I've managed to heal most of the first one. But a few years later, my (ex-)boyfriend tried to abuse me when I was asleep. I always assumed it wasn't that bad, but, today, I burst in tears because I related to a fictive character who's been abused too. I think it's time to start trying to deal with this one too, now, and trust in others, again. Thank you for your video, it's really helping me understand I can't do everything on my own (all those experiences made me believe I can't trust anyone and must do anything by myself).

I’m 27, and I’m watching you-tube since 14. It is one of the best video I’ve ever watched!
Useful, informative, purposeful! Thank you!

Tysm for this I was SA in hs and had to go through an entire trial to get the person arrested and tried to kms. I’ve always wondered about the after affects of everything. I really appreciate your videos you’ve helped me so much ❤❤❤

I don't trust many people anymore my trauma stems from my childhood even things like been in groups of people can be difficult getting a haircut things like that give me bad anxiety and exspressing my self in conversations are not always easy unless i get to know you i hope i make sense

[Cassie_the_animator]

Thank you for picking my suggestion ❤❤

[christoferdrewrocks]

I don’t even know like I’ll just be there minding my own business then suddenly a group of people having normal conversations makes me get hit with a wave of sadness then I end up staring into the abyss for hours.

I definitely relate to this. Just yesterday at work, I saw my mom. I actually felt my anxiety spike. I’ve been going by a different name at work to try to help myself move on from my abusive past. My family doesn’t know this and honestly I’ve been VERY distant with them while I work on healing. Thankfully my mom didn’t come through my line, but I remained stressed even when she left

Thank you for this video for validation. I relate to this video. My last relationship was abusive (more emotional/psychological/ mental than physical... Although physical did happen) and I've gone through what I need to to try and heal...I have really felt like myself. Your videos are amazing. Thank you

I think I had an actual PTSD induced episode at work a week or two ago. Someone raised their voice at me asking about something not being finished (for context, I work in an airport, so things being missed can be an actual problem). I felt myself be confused, and then go numb while trying to fix whatever it was. Conscious, aware, but unable to feel emotions or speak. I got my bearings back a few minutes later, but this is a genuine concern. Had I dissociated instead, things could have quickly gotten very dangerous as I routinely am out on the ramp, near active aircraft. Glad my mind didn't completely shut off!

Hi pysch2go love your vids.
Today i went outside my house to play basketball and heard my neighbor screaming at their children, I heard a bit of the conversation through the walls in between our houses and turns out the siblings were fighting, Now idk this whole story but wish them a better mood ♥️

I used to have to go to the vet a lot. These car drives were always overloaded with hope, sadness, fear, uncertainty and what will happen. Around 15 years later, the same thoughts come to mind when I have to use these roads. Later, I specifically undertook more enjoyable events where I had to use the same roads. But it didn't help that much.

I have PTSD and its hard to live with everyday symptomes but i dont give up and try to heal :`) thanks for the video <3

It’s a long term because of the ghosting by a friend of mine.
