I had an experiance at work last night that I want to share, but I'm struggling to find the right words.

So bear with me ...

It started with me struggling with my PTSD before work. I was already shaky and not doing well by the time I had to go to work, and the awful feeling continued to build as my shift went on. Finally, frustrated, I asked myself "Just what am I feeling?"

The answer came back "Grief. Grief for what was lost."

Finally, in desperation, I decided to simply let myself grieve for a bit for what was taken from me.

And it worked. after about a half hour, the grief lifted, and I felt better.

I guess sometimes, the answer is to just feel the feel, and then you can move on.

You just about summed it up there, young'un I have had a little over 50 years of the infamous feeling of PTSD ... somehow I learned to acknowledge it mentally and in time it just seems to fade for a while.. I hope you can get the same results & together we will laugh at it .. hang on kiddo , May GOD bless
