You sound very sad. I wanted to say that no matter what, you are not alone. God loves you, even if you deny Him, He always waits for you. (I am not saying you do deny anything, just in case you do not believe- He *IS* still there). He will always be there for you.
PTSD is nothing to mess around with. It not only hurts you, but hurts the ones you love as well. If you are ashamed of what happened, join an annonymous group just to vent.
I wish you well- be safe. <><

PSTD is hard. It takes years to recover, depending on the traumatic event. The best is to find a private counselor that deals with PSTD you feel comfortable with. They can help you deal better with your past so you can start living your present, and hopefully soon can look at your future with more hope and hapiness. If a counselor is not your thing, get books at the library (or read up on the internet) on your trauma issues. There is so much out there, also many support groups with people in the same boat as you. Once you feel better you will again make friends and live your life as others do. Maybe you'll then be able to help others in that situation! It will give you peace of mind!

Are you a veteran? If so please go to them for some help. I know what you are feeling, I have been there myself. With a lot of therapy I am now starting to return to life. The change is slow but I can see now that I am miles ahead of where I started. You may also need some medications, I had nightmares for months about what got me into the situation that led to PTSD. You are not alone, there are others who know what your feelings are and understand them. Start with a family doctor if you have one or go to a walk in clinic. You don't have to live like this. I know it seems so far to reach up, but just a little will help you. I can't say I will pray for you, that's not my thing, but I hope you find some comfort somehow.

Post-traumatic stress disorder can be very difficult to manage. Perhaps you push other people away because they may ask you about yourself and you do not want to discuss the past?
I suggest that you take care of a living being, it could be a plant, a pet or another person. It may sound unusual but focusing on others and looking after them will greatly improve your current mood.
Also, please channel your energy into art. Please get creative. Paint pictures, write songs, sing, play an instrument, dance; whatever form of creativity you choose.
There is always hope, there are those who had overcome PTSD, and you can too. I wish you well.

What's wrong with wanting more? It sounds like it is time for you to make some decisions and changes. I think it would be good to try talking to a counselor. What do you have to lose? The first step is an extremely important one - choosing a counselor. If you have a job that has an EAP program contact them for help. It is confidential. Otherwise, look in your phone book under mental health services for a list of services that you can choose from.

Believe it or not, your PTSD may be linked to your blood sugar level. www.hufa.org has info in the low blood sugar link that will help you test yourself. If some of your PTSD is due to a blood sugar imbalance, then eating to balance your blood sugar level may free you from some of your self-hate, hate and anger.
I have more ideas on how you can use your memory to re-program yourself to remember good things about you, and build on that, if you want. You may e-mail me through my profile page if you want to.
You are cared about, just as you are.
