How Can Severe Anxiety And PTSD Be Treated?
In the last year or so, I ve been diagnosed with ptsd, severe anxiety disorder. I ve been put on disability, which I hate. I am seeing a therapist weekly. I ve asked the therapist how long treatment takes, but his reply is that I ve had 46 years to develop this disorder, it will take a long time to recover if I ever do. I am so sick of being scared but every time I try to step out of my area, it feels like shards of glass running through my body. Everytime I feel threatened, it s like a lightning bolt shooting through me. Do these things ever stop? Does someone like me get back to normal?
