This is the community I miss the most from reddit and will probably go back at least to it.

But I would love for us to have and option here too and some support group in fediverse.

I am exploring mastadon #cptsd tag and found a way to subscribe to tag, so there are ways for us to connect.

    Thank you for commenting.

    It takes time to learn to communicate, even more our feelings.

    At one point at therapy I understood that my therapist tought me to talk to another person. I was in mid thirties. I realized that in whole childhood no adult was ever talkjg with me. They were ordering me and forbiding me, questioning me… but I never had normal conversation with afult person.

    So I was lacking in social interaction department. But it got better and people now see me as higly communicative, while before I was “introvert”. I now see that “introvert” is just politically correct way to say “traumatized and neglected”.

    I also don’t believe in diagnosis, except it brings you some benefits, we are all individuals and the only difference is how much and in what ways. I get it that some medications help in different situations, but we still need other parts of therapy.
