Here i am with my spotted hankie on a stick packed with my dream diary, B vitamins and chocolate, with a cat on my shoulder, setting off on a new path of recovery with cat on my shoulder.
Have just (against advice) stopped drinking alcohol, day 7
I think it will be ok because ive reduced over a 4 month period and swapped alcohol for Lustral which is a new thing.
(Taking meds every day is a new thing) I had a diagnosis of severe chronic ptsd about 2 months ago. Which has made total sense of the last 44 years of my life! Ive done alot of homework on the subject, had a few lightbulb moments... and here i am setting out with a little trepidation, some fear and sadness but mostly relief that i CAN now begin to move foreward and recliaim my life.
Im here because im on waiting lists for specific professional support and need to do some self help in the meantime. As specially since ive just dropped my most relaible buffer ie alcohol and yes the advice was right the CPSD symptoms ARE worse, but im handling it so far.
So hello all. Thanks for being here. Speak soon
