PTSD

**Ticker warning**

After waiting 2 months, yesterday I went to my appointment for my mental health evaluation. It wasn't easy, it reopened all wounds.My appointment was in the same building as my OBGYN, she's on the 3rd floor & I was going up the elevator to the 5th floor. I was standing there with others in the elevator & it hit me out of no where. I remember everything in details from that day. I am glad everyone got off before when those doors closed again I just let it all out. I got to my appointment,we talked about everything. From my childhood to my present life, why I feel at fault. After about a 2 hour talk, they diagnosed my with post traumatic stress disorder. I was put on Prozac, I still have my Xanax & to only be used in cause of severe panic attacks. I feel broken, I know something is wrong. I try my best to not have my depression & anxiety defeat me but it's so fresh. There isn't one day I don't think about her. But I am very happy I reached out for help.

    That is great that you reached out for help! Will this be something that you will be able to go to on a regular basis? I do hope so. Talking it out is very important and cathartic if you are ready to. 

    I think we all could go right back to those moments, reliving each one as if it were still happening. You are not broken or abnormal. You are hurt, grieving and missing your daughter, Elizabeth. Medication is not a bad thing, its a tool to help you on this journey. I hope the prozac can help you feel balanced as you learn how to balance things on your own. Big ((hugs))!

    Unfortunately depression and anxiety aren't always things that we can 'talk ourselves out of' so to speak. Good for you for seeking out additional support!

    So glad you're getting the help you need. PTSD is certainly understandable in your situation. I hope that this is the beginning of a new chapter of healing for you.
