...See more Has anyone else gone through a traumatic experience that has caused you to become paranoid about dying? I got shot in the thigh a few years back. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing good but then some times I get triggered by other people and think they will or want to shoot me. I've been talking with my online therapist about my panic attacks but I still get bad vibes from certain people. I am in a loop and find it hard to live a normal life. Like are my feelings real or just a trauma response? That's where I am stuck. Even with people I was friends with before the incident, I've gotten worried about them too
Where are the good people??

...See more Seriously, where are the genuine people at? I know that everyone is supportive when they say that there are good people, but why does it seem so hard to find what I need? Lately I've felt that my panic attacks aren't as intense and they aren't happening on the daily anymore. I still get triggered and think my life is going to end, but it's not as an intense feeling as before. I really would like to make a connection with someone that actually checks in on me and makes plans. I feel lonely and unsatisfied with my life. There's a change I know I need to make, but I feel so unmotivated to actually live my life if I feel that I am meaningless. Can anyone relate? 😔

...See more You ever notice that it is harder to make friends as you get older? For me, I had a traumatizing event happen to me that made me fear people. I also feel like I can read more into people and I am so unsatisfied with my interactions. I genuinely would love to make a friend that cared about my mental health and didn't want to use my hurt to manipulate me. But talking to most people only lasts so long. I sometimes wish I were a kid again and didn't know anything and be friends with everyone again. I guess, ignorance is bliss. 🥺

...See more Do you sometimes feel that your PTSD is not always just a trauma response? Like you start to believe it is true? I'm trying to stay in the now and just think of what's going on right now, but sometimes people make me doubt it. I've reached out the Crisis line, but I still don't feel safe around certain people. And it's not like I am seeking them out, they just like cling to me. I am not trying to off myself and that's what the crisis line always asks. Which is good for me, but do you guys ever feel unsafe around people??

...See more I've been struggling with my PTSD after being shot 2 years ago. I want to make friends but trust no one because I feel like they are going to shoot me. It's like this irrational thought of no one liking me. Counseling has been helping but I still can't make friends. I feel so down. Any advice on how to make friends after PTSD
