Things I Didnt Know Were Symptoms Of C-PTSD

Things I Didn’t Know Were Symptoms of C-PTSD

Getting overwhelmed in crowds

Getting upset or angry at a loud alarm

Ordinary nightmares (that have nothing to do with the circumstances, just stupid nightmares much more often than the average person)

Getting sharp pains in your back/neck/collarbones that make it hard to breathe (due to hypervigilance/constant high anxiety)

Learning that “high anxiety” does not mean “generalized anxiety” like other people have with panic attacks and not feeling that they can accomplish thing. PTSD anxiety just means this frenetic energy that makes you want to talk/think/do things (even as an introvert) to avoid stopping.

Feeling constantly bored like you have to chase after something, even if you’re just at home: I spend hours on tumblr, pinterest, watching tv, reading books, making art, never just laying there alone…because if you stop…the darkness is there

Thinking up stories before bed. This is a symptom of high anxiety because you’re trying to calm down and fall asleep in a “safe world” where people are looking out for you and caring for you.

Trouble falling asleep (which is distinct from insomnia) because turning off electronics etc. doesn’t help since your heartrate/fight or flight response is engaged

Periods of racing heart (mine has gotten to 120bpm for five hours) that make you feel like you’re waiting for something to happen

Exaggerated startle response. When I was a kid I used to hide behind corners to surprise my sisters. Two years ago my friend hid under my desk to scare me. I literally screamed, fell out of the chair, and started crying. She was laughing because she thought the joke went well, and then got concerned because I kept crying.

Purposefully “tanking” a bad day with sad music/tv/movies/books because it “was already ruined anyway”

This is cute I can't xD

Invader Jack

hahaha….

We all thought anti was harmless to jacks other egos. Then he killed one. Egos shouldn’t harm each other…. Anti must go. Basically: my reaction to the newest jacksepticeye video.

Eddsworld requests open!

Eddsworld character futures: Obviously tom marries Susan the guitar(humanized here) and has a kid. He gets no sleep what so ever but is happy none the less. Matt struggles with more memory issues until one day he recognizes private brains. She recognizes him too and thanks him for treating her like a person when she was a zombie. They soon become friends and Matts memory slowly starts to get better. Eventually they date maybe? Jon takes it upon himself to get revenge on Tord but instead sees how much pain he's in emotionally. They slowly(because of tord) become friends and Jon helps him out so he doesn't over work himself. Mark is rich and wants to be left alone. Edd and Eduardo now alone start to become friends and adopt a bunch of cats after ringos demise.((More like Eduardo got Edd kittens to make him feel better cause he has a crush))

Have a bill flowey hybrid too.
