I Have Ptsd
I got it from wrecks. I'm ashamed of that. I was abused when I was very young and then again around the time when the accident happened. And I don't have PTSD from that. No I get panic attacks for hours on end because of wrecks.
I think I would've been better off had my parents listened to me or cared about the nightmares at all. Maybe I could've gotten help.
I couldn't even speak about what happened for over a year. And when they were pushing and pushing me to say what caused my nightmares (because they thought my stepdad at the time had raped me but they never asked me outright because that's too logical).. When I finally managed to force myself to speak about it the first person I told said, "Oh, that's it? That wasn't that bad. I'm kind of mad. Because that's not that big of a deal."
