I never thought I would be facing signs of traumatic stress disorder at this point in my life, but here I am. The flashbacks, the nightmares, the constant feeling of dread - it’s all taken a toll on me. It’s been hard to talk about it and even harder to admit that I need help. But I refuse to let this define me. I am actively seeking out resources and support to help me overcome this. I want to get back to living my life to the fullest and not be held back by this darkness. It’s comforting to know that I am not alone in this battle, and I hope that I can find the strength to rise above it. Here’s to taking the first steps towards healing and reclaiming my peace of mind.
