PTSD and abuse.

[LuciaDisturbed]

But you did imply that "anything" can cause PTSD. And not anything can. It has to be a SEVERE TRAUMA.

CAUTION! Abuse discussed in detail below:

Do you know what it feels like to watch your mother be stranggled in front of you? To watch in fear as you believe she dies? Do you know what it's like to have a crackhead (oh and the crackhead is your uncle) break into your home in the middle of the night with a knife and have to literally run away to the police station in your underwear at 7 years old? Do you know how it feels to have your best friend steal your virginity by raping you?
And lastly, do you know how it feels to know that you will have to hold your only child as she dies? To be told that you will never get to see her eyes because they can't let her wake up, because she would be in too much pain? To know that she will die after only 3 days of life, but those days were nothing but pain and agony? To look in the face of an angel and know that she'll never see a tree or breath fresh air? To watch YOUR baby have a two needles pushed inside her heart from her neck and have all her blood drained from her body? Have you been told that if you even kiss you baby she will feel it as horrible pain, and so you must sit and watch her suffer, unable to touch her or comfort her? Have you had to write birth announcements that also declare the death of you precious child?

If not, please don't declare that other people "can't handle" stuff.

I am sorry for all those things that you have gone through.

This "private room" idea is looking better with each passing volley here....

i second that.

How would that work? There are so many triggers on this website, and no one has to say anything about their own triggers and their own disorders in the first place in order to be triggered. They can be triggered without even saying ANYTHING.



No, how about this? You don't know anything about PTSD. So, you STFU.

in my case, fluoxetine (an ssri prozac generic) works wonderfully well in keeping my panic attacks at bay. of course, i do have a co-morbid diagnosis of bipolar which probably explains why it works so effectively for me. if my panic attacks were more frequent, i would definitely ask about taking benzo's, but since they are mainly triggered by how i'm feeling (for example, being riled up emotionally or being triggered by something in my environment), the fluoxetine does a very good job of making me calm and keeping me level so that i don't experience an attack.

It's sad to read the whole thread here about your past experience... I'm very sorry,

I share the same experience as you as well.

I was being emotional, phyiscal and sexual abuse by step-dad. My siblings and I withnessed a LOT what and how my mother had through.... It destory my mother's self-esteem...

My Dad beat my mother up front of us sometimes...

My step-dad (my mother's 2nd husband) beat up my mother and rape her front of us ALOT. My step-dad was very volient and monster. He threaten us a lot for kill my mother... and the same he threat my mother for kill us...

I never forget one example of many things that I tried to tell my step-dad that I did not took some chocolates of his box but my step-dad ignored me and got me out of 2nd floor window and hold my both ankle to get me to tell him the truth... example like this... http://www.goettinger-tageblatt.de/storage/pic/artikel/zentral/haz/071224/330998_1_blaine.jpg - I screamed but he dropped one of my both ankles to stop me to scream... I stopped to scream and give in tell him "lie" that it's me... because I was too scare that he might hurt me to drop both of my ankle to let my head hit on the yard and killed... He pulled me back from out the window and then threaten me if I do that again then he will throw me out of window...

He was sentenced to 10 years jail for bank robbery.. My siblings and I feel good except my mother... She cried and cried... I thought she would scream FREE... FREE.... FREE but she doesn't... she wrote a letter to him everyday that's how she depend on alochol... end to addiction...

My other step-dad (my mother's 3rd husband) beat her up violence... that's time we don't live with her.

It destory my mother's self-esteem - end to depend on alocholic and live on street everywhere... She said that she is happy to live on street and share homeless people together... they walk everywhere together... I last saw her was in 1995 and don't know where she is.

I am so sorry these things happened to you. That's horrible that your step-dad hung you by your ankles outside the window. I am surprised no one saw and called child services or CPS for that one.

The thread is closed due to sorting out the personal attacks that are directed at each other. The thread will also be reviewed. Actions also will be taken as well.

Frankly, It really needs to be stopped. We all are adults here and surely, we can use the best of our judgment to engage in a discussion wisely rather than resorting to such attacks.
