As a 51-year-old woman dealing with slight PTSD, I have found that one of the most important things is finding the courage to face each day. It’s not easy, and some days are definitely harder than others, but I’ve learned that reaching out for help and support is key to moving forward. Whether it’s talking to a therapist, joining a support group, or finding activities that bring me joy, I’ve discovered that there are ways to cope and heal. It’s okay to have bad days, but I’m trying to focus on finding little moments of peace and happiness. If anyone else out there is struggling, just know that you’re not alone. We can find the courage to face our challenges together.
