Hi. My name is happydandan. And I have Ptsd.
@happydandan. Hi. I have ptsd too. I'm here too talk to if you want. I get bad depression and anxiety with mine and sometimes I'm very sensitive to light and sounds. I usually get my worst anxiety in the morning and I don't sleep very good many nights. I kind of prefer night time because it's dark and not very many people out. I'm trying to learn how to deal with some of my problems but live alone now and am really struggling. How are you doing?
@wittyTree8219 I can't search for you.
Hi there,
I'm new, still trying to find my way round.
I don't want to belong here, but I do.
I just want to hide from everything. I don't want any more hurt but I want to learn how to live. I can't keep hiding anymore. So I thought that joining a community like this might be a stepping stone to achieving that.
Thx for reading xxxx

Hello, and a warm welcome to you.
I hear you when you say you don't want to belong here - the sort of experiences that bring us to a trauma community aren't the sort you would ever wish to have happened to you or anyone else. But you know what, this is a lovely community of people - warm, supportive, understanding. Hopefully you can find the stepping stones you need.
Just to highlight too, we gave a daily check in thread. You don't have to check in daily, you don't have to contribute at all if you don't want. But it's a well used resource, and it may just help you feel less alone with how you feel. You can find it here
@indigoVillage2217 Hi Indigo, I know that feel of wishing you didn't belong here :( But we're here to support you with the help you wish you didn't need for the feelings you wish you didn't have. I find our biggest strength here is empathy... we've all been through similar feelings and experiences. For every negative feeling you have, someone here GETS IT. You are not alone anymore 
@dancingRainbow45 Hey all, I am a listener that has had personal experience with trauma and I understand it well, if you ever need to chat im here:)
