I am a teenager. I have been couch/car surfing. I am lost and confused and I need advice on how to proceed. The reason I do not want to go home is because i was taken advantage of at a young age by my mother. I have fragmented memories, but the one i distinctly remember is asking her to do it again when i was around 6 years old, and afterwords being told that under no circumstances can i tell anyone, and that if i do the police will come and ruin our lives. right before the homeless period started, i did shrooms with my girlfriend, and while walking home, i started sobbing and screaming loudl ..read more

6 years ago I dated someone to say the least above average shitty and was almost killed after being SAed many times in very violent ways. After the relationship ended and I perused criminal charges I left the town and went to live with my parents 7 hours away (I was 19 at the time). Since then I have only come back for legal proceedings and reasons. But this last week I was asked to spend the next two weeks here house sitting for family (specifically thier animals). Now I have done years of work to try and move past this. And I have for the most part. Of course very specific things still trig ..read more

PTSD from my EX and some gangsters. (Not violent but a mild trigger maybe?)

In hindsight, I might the stupid person here. Also, I am living in an asian country were some things are different so there might be weird stuff that sounds superstitious that people might not know it is kind of a big deal. Years ago, I got together with this girl who only has a grandma because her mom and dad left her in her grandma's care. It was kind of a red flag because she kept asking me for money, but I am kind of ok financially so I helped her out, and I imagined that it was a solid year. Later, I have to go study in the US. Since I don't believe in long distance relationship, I am qu ..read more

Last year I went through some stuff and ended up in very unhealthy relationship where I was not fully in control of my mind, so I did things that I regret. I was asked out by a horrible excuse of a person and my dumb ass said yes. Time passes, decisions were made, consent was… dubious. I was lucky to not have gotten an sti. (Short version, will elaborate if needed :// ) Anyway! I have been seeing a new guy for about 7 months now. He’s really sweet and cares about me. But for some reason, when I’m sitting on a couch with him in a safe and calm environment, my brain freaks out and says I don’t ..read more

Was in a loop nightmare that had me laughing about it when I was awake afterwards. Someone woke me up but I was told I sounded to be quite distressed while asleep. Is there an app that can wake you up if there is no one around? Wouldn't want to scare kids or anything. submitted by /u/ExtensionHeight3031 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Is it normal for me to be comfortable when my life is endangered?

i’ll admit, i didn’t have the best time growing up. there was a bunch of times where i didn’t feel safe in my house or i was just terrified. my life when i was a child was the opposite of stability. but now that i’ve grown up, about to be an adult, i don’t desire stability. i dream of being in situations where my life is being threatened, and i know i shouldn’t. but i feel safest when im scared or running. i can’t see myself growing up and living a boring job unless it holds some threat to my life in some way. i don’t know if anyone else feels the same way? submitted by /u/daaare [visit redd ..read more

PTSD from 9 years ago, still triggering and getting more frequent.

So I’m a 37 year old firefighter, in 2015 I went to a fire that went really bad really quick. To make a long story short, I was inside a house with my partner advancing a hose line, conditions deteriorated rapidly and had a couple close calls that lead to us having to exit the building rapidly. 5 of us were injured although not seriously, I had 1st and 2nd degree burns to my neck, ears and wrist and nearly took a large heavy object to the head when the roof collapsed, missing me by about a foot. Since that incident, being in low visibility environments sometimes triggers my anxiety and once i ..read more

My boyfriend told me about this sub and thought it might help me to share my journey with medical trauma and PTSD (And to be honest, I need to get some things off my chest really bad..) When I was about 12, I had a severe whiplash injury doing winter sports. I had to be transported to the ER by ambulance, but didn’t stay at the hospital for long. I was discharged by the doctor and was not given any proper tests, like a brain or a neck scan. (Apparently back then there was way less medical knowledge about whiplash injuries and concussions, and since I wasn’t vomiting after what had happened th ..read more
