Here’s my Top 5 Horror Stories (PTSD edition)
- On telling a relative of my PTSD diagnosis: “You need to work on your hateful attitude.” Thanks for your love and support.
- “The things you say happened, did they actually happen or did they just happen in your head?” Thanks for the question. The events actually happened.
- “You need to just get over it.” Thanks. I hadn’t thought of that.
- Two weeks after my traumatic event: “You must feel better now, right?” No. No I don’t. Also this is kind of gaslighty and totally creepy.
- “Well that happened to me and I don’t have PTSD.” Cool. Congrats.
Bonus one: “This is all just in your head.” Yeah, I’m aware of that. Thanks for the info. 👍
Another bonus: “Bitch. You need therapy.” Thanks. I’ve gone to therapy for years. Also this is abuse.
