So many people go undiagnosed for SO much longer. So many people just get told it's just anxiety and to meditate. I truly hope as time goes on, so will awareness on more than just textbook anxiety and depression. Doctors are underqualified, and people suffer for that

PTSD and c-PTSD is more than just being afraid of fireworks, effects so much more of the population than I think people are aware, and is grossly debilitating. It took three years and a spiral for me to convince doctors, after obvious behaviour through my entire life

Luckily, with both @nagirl.bsky.social and frankly just fear and disorientation, nothing absolutely horrible happened. These days, I do better, but I still feel a bit empty when I sit and think about my life until this point.

At the crux of it, I went a bit 'insane', is the best word. I wouldn't eat, I'd drink for days on end, I either wouldn't sleep or I'd sleep for days on end, burned and marked myself, and tried to mix opioids and alcohol. I had lost family, and envied the peace they felt in death

I've had people look at me, and ask 'PTSD? But... you weren't in a war?' or just laugh and ask what could've happened to someone so young. I don't see it spoke much about, people seem to believe it's veteran-exclusive, or don't believe children remember things, for some reason

Now after years of medications, therapies, it's still strange. I know I have it, I know I struggle with it, but it's such a heavy word I manage to doubt myself. PTSD carries a very strange stigma, I believe.

Now I'm complete opposite of who I used to be just a year ago, and completely incomparable any longer than that. I realise now majority of my teenage and childhood behaviour was one side to the same coin of managing 'forgotten' traumas, in that I thought what I'd gone through was nothing.

Another small fun fact is that the older he's getting, he's showing markings of a dudley lab, which is apparently quite rare?! Which makes him a working line American dudley Labrador? Lots of words.

I just wanted a companion and now I got Clifford, except all this one does is try to eat out the bin and has enough drool to flood a city the SECOND he sees food
