I have PTSD, and am slowly learning to self-manage my lifestyle around it as a "Disability".

The symptoms of PTSD significantly impair your everyday living. You should definitely seek professional help from a mental health professional. It's nothing to be ashamed of. If you experience trauma, then a person is 34% likely to develop PTSD. Its very common. But if you don't get help you will be dealing with these issues forever. For example a symptom is avoiding cues associated with the trauma. This can become very uncomfortable and inconvenient. Also you may already or develop a reexperiencing of the traumatic event. You're life is too important to have to deal with these issue forever. Get help before it begins interfering too much with your life. Treatment for this disorder will be relieving, I promise.
It's not a disability it's a disorder, mental health professionals can help you tremendously with this disorder.

I believe that I had the same thing after I flipped my truck. You can get a perscription from the Dr to help with it. Just talk to him about it
