I think I have some PTSD from that day. Here's why.
Yesterday I was doing my thing like I do every day, when 9:00 AM rolls around. Sean has class from 7:40 until 11:10, so I just sort of bide my time until he gets home. But 9:00 comes, and he pulls into the driveway.
My heart sinks. I start getting jittery, and sweating, and my stomach feels sick. It feels like that day he showed up at home after the lay off.
I instantly start thinking the worst; he dropped out of school, he got kicked out of school, he got in an accident, he got a job and has to drop out of school, he decided he hates us all and wants a divorce and to take the kids and all the money and run away and leave me homeless and destitute and alone.
A little dramatic? Probably.
Turns out he doesn't have the 10:00 class on Tuesdays, and I was just mistaken. I had a little breakdown after that.
Seriously, I think I have some PTSD. I'm so afraid of what else may come our way, that I'm afraid to ever think positively!
Life. It's traumatic.

oh, so that's what its called? PTSD? For so long now I just thought I was a bitch! What a relief. Can someone please explain this to everyone for me? And.....BTW, glad Sean didn't get kicked out of school! ;)
Stress is a funny thing! You can make it! And, yes life can be traumatic!
Be brave - think positive!!
Hi
Just wanted to let you know that I have been thinking about you.
Boy, that solves all your problems doesn't it? Just kiddin'
I hope you guys get back into the Utah groove soon. I mean the groove you want to be in. I am thinking positive thoughts for you.
BTW, I was wondering if you guys still own a home here? You said you had just moved into a house? How did you manage that one?
Best of luck. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

I hate the PTSD feelings! It's amazing how they can take over.
