PTSD

I had an appointment with a psychiatrist today.  It is part of my mental health treatment since my physical well being has deteriorated and someone told me I have a demon in me.  (Nice thing to say to someone.)   Someone who I thought was a friend, unfriended me and I can feel my world collapsing around me.  I had forgotten about the ghosts from my past until he asked me what my childhood was like.  I can remember crawling in my dog's doghouse, wrapping my arms around her neck, and her licking my face as I sobbed til I couldn't cry anymore telling her my problems.  She was a true friend!!!  He told me I have been suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder  (PTSD) for years!  I wasn't expecting that one!  He said that explains why sometimes I lash out at someone if they say or do something to hurt me.  I am trying to protect myself from anymore mental hurt.  I think it is backfiring on me because I think I am losing some important people in my life.  With the proper counseling and medication my mind and heart will be ok. 
The weather got chilly here today.   I actually felt a few snowflakes.  Time to cuddle under the blankets!!!  Have a very blessed evening!!!

Laugh and Smile Often, Love ALWAYS!!!
