It keeps coming back
I'm putting a lot of effort to fight anxiety, PTSD and depression. But it keeps coming back.
I have a few happy days and then a lot of bad days. no matter how hard i try, how hard i fight, it keeps coming back. THe flashbacks, tha nightmares, the feeling of fear... it all comeback

Hi there,
PTSD is so invasive and so determined to swallow us whole. However, it can also be a great teacher for us. Giving us internal signals to slow down and work a little longer those "bad" areas in life. It SUCKS, I know! I am currently going through this too. My therapist is so great and very patient, yet persistent. I wish I had words of encouragement, and a huge hug to give you. Just know that it's not easy, life isn't easy, but we can manage. I also understand that we certainly get discouraged, and frustrated with our progress and how long PTSD lingers that it can be a deadly driving force. Let's keep trying to kill it with kindness by staying positive.

I am so sorry. *Hugs*
Maybe you can think of it like a dragon in a video game that you need to beat. Keep wandering around the world and gathering tools and building strength, until you have what you need to beat it?
