Ptsd

You never know how an event affected you until you’re reminded of it. In my case, the events I relive aren’t traumatic per say, they just deeply affected me. When I’m in an episode, i physically see the events happening and feel the way I felt back then. After my episodes I feel exhausted, my body hurts, and I quite honestly feel high. I never had a history of mental health issues until my mother almost died. I’ve learned that with ptsd you just have to let it run its course. Only time will heal those wounds and you can try to avoid situations all you want but at the end of the day, those flashbacks will happen. There’s no escaping it.
