PTSD

[sarah79]

I have recently been diagnosied with PTSD. just wondered if anyone could give me any advice on it.

What advice are you looking for? I assume that since you got diagnosed you are currently receiving treatment for it.

i have been put on medication and have started counselling. just wondered if there was any forums or more information about it that i could read. i have been researching on the internet.

PTSD requires fairly specific types of therapy. What was the cause of the PTSD if you don't mind me asking?

There are several of us on here that are diagnosed with PTSD. There is also a specific sub-forum on here to PTSD. I have it, and I would be happy to answer any questions for you.

The best book I have found on it is: The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma (https://www.amazon.com/Body-Keeps-Score-Healing-Trauma-ebook/dp/B00G3L1C2K/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw78yFBhCZARIsAOxgSx1dvDiiGY9RYsWiYxN5 DOsFm48s2tKFiOQFjbN0qDqY7r_x9JRpZ-UaAp_vEALw_wcB&hvadid=241620573485&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9031567&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=10782764717860247144&hvtargid=kwd-52082394281&hydadcr=15524_10340834&keywords=the+body+keeps+the+score&qid=1622394400&sr=8-1) by Van Der Kolk
