Default Ptsd???????????????????????????????????

I think I may have a bit of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I am going to call my p-doc today.
It was on 60 minutes last night, how people suffer from this from, rape, being in a bad car accident, violence, war, etc

I only think this because many of my symptoms are the same.
FEAR, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, SLEEP ISSUES, NIGHTMARES, RE-LIVING THE EVENT.

When I talk about it, I get very emotional to the point of tears and it all comes back to me like it is happening all over again. The fear of him is still with me. I have nightmares about it, then wake up suddenly.

Last night I woke up approx. 1am, then 2:30am, then 4am finally got up around 6:45am.

Maybe it isn't PTSD, but it was and still is very traumatic for me. My mom yelled to me - you should watch 60 min, so I turned it on and went OMG.......

I shouldn't self diagnose, I really don't know enough about it. It is just so hard to get past this.

Hugs, Nanc
