Going to a job interview, do you typically feel like butterflies are in your stomach or like you need to really go to the restroom?

It did feel like butterflies were in my stomach or maybe it was just gas.. #CPTSD #PTSD #MentalHealth #Anxiety #Depression #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder

Have you ever had a blowout on your car or truck, and the weather was not the best, and you had to change your tire? What was this like for you?

I had this happen to me a few years back, and when I got off work, it happened outside my job. It was in December, and it was at night, and raining really hard. So I was drenched when I got done, and it was like 37 degrees outside that night, and everyone was leaving in their cars. I noticed it when I tried to drive away in my car... But the spare worked, and after 35 minutes, I was back on track. I was stressed out about it the whole way back home, which was an hour away at the time, I was almost done staying with my parents, that was the last few months. #CPTSD #PTSD #MentalHealth #Anxiety #Depression #Trauma #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder

When Redbox was a thing, where the video box was set up inside like Walmart and Target, and outside of pharmacy stores, were you a fan of this?

I didn't mind buying movies for like one or two dollars but the stress came when the boxes were outside and it was raining or cold and everybody was waiting in their car staying out of the weather but still tried to run up their to return their movie and look for new movies, It would stress me out sometimes just waiting to return my movie to that same Redbox. Then sometimes the machine would hang the movie coming in to return it or coming out to try to rent a new one, then would have to call the toll-free number and wait on the phone for 20 minutes.. #CPTSD #PTSD #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #MentalHealth #Trauma #Anxiety #Depression

Today's Challenge:

Take a moment to truly appreciate a simple, everyday comfort today, like a warm beverage, a friendly wave, or the sound of quiet in your home. #CPTSD #PTSD #Trauma #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #Anxiety #Depression #MentalHealth

Food

For two days now I literally can’t eat.
Just the process of eating so wayyy to exhausting and difficult…
So I drink my calories…
Smoothies and yfood.
It tastes really good like a coffe flavoured pudding shake. 😋

Today I forced myself to eat rice salad wich was horrible…
A fish salad was way easier to eat and tasty.
But just looking at the food and thinking about the process of eating disgusted me as it was way to hard…

I hate how depression affects something so natural as eating…
It’s soo exhausting.

It took all my bravery to ask in group therapy about people who experience the same symptoms.
They had soo many good answers for me.

I hope it gets better with time…
