PTSD anger
Posted: Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:09 pm
Hi ,
Sorry to bother you but i have PTSD and i am living in a flat the past 4 years where i am being harassed
and bullied by a neighbour . Its got so bad that these days i get so angry that i fear i will retaliate in the end .
I am scared of them and what i might do .
Now as PTSD is a complicated illness with many side effects i was wondering if/how i can control this .
I`ve done well up to now , but , i relive and go through many different scenarios in my head and speak
out loud . When i`m out and about i am often speaking out loud to my self . I`m also anger and tense all
the time and feel i could hurt myself or others any time .
Because of my PTSD i have hallucinations with very vivid death and murderous thoughts and that scares
me .
I have an appointment with my local mental health team in a week or so`s time . I dont feel they will believe me ,
Because even i dont believe how i feel . I wan to tell them but dont know how , easy to say not easy to do . I`ve
been through dozens of scenarios and still cant find a way to explain these feelings to the doctor in a week or so .
What do you call it when someone speaks out loud ? its got a name but i can never remember . NHS choice said CBT isnt always a good idea for someone with PTSD and i agree . I`ve spent so long living
the Scenarios that i am confused even thinking of the real reality now . Personally i dont want to relive it
ever . I do find Group helps . this bullying from my neighbours has made me a recluse and anti-social so
how do i get group .
Thanks for listen .............. long shot i know .
