> Thank you all in advance for thinking about this. I have had chronic/complex PTSD since about 1992. I had major depression secondary to the PTSD. One of the things that caused the PTSD was abuse by a therapist. I have taken medications in the past but have been happily free of them for the last two years. My problem is that in the last two months, I have had cancer return (I am genetically predisposed), I was robbed, a hurricane hit my hometown, I was injured in a motor vehicle accident, and I prevented the suicide of my next door neighbor because I happened to be in the driveway as she was running out onto the highway in front of our homes. I am having flashbacks of lots of different bad scenes from the past, plus nightmares, etc. The worst part is that I feel so fatigued, and I am supposed to be doing exercises at home as part of the recovery from the car accident. I have been able to manage the medical appointments relative to my physical injuries and not much else. I can't imagine ever going back to counseling because of what I suffered before. I have a hard enough time with just the idea of a doctor's office - my blood pressure goes through the roof every time I have to go to a doctor.

>>Sara Ann, Sorry for your troubling circumstances. If it were me, I'd be on my knees every night asking God what he was so pissed off about. After I stopped yelling at him, I'd ask him to guide every step and every thought. When life has really kicked my ass, that's where I go.
