Thank you @Maggie  and @NatureLover 

I just can't keep up with my head at the moment.... one minute I think I am getting better... life is looking brighter... I am on my way up and out of this hole... then the next I am drowning in soggy tissues and unable to function..... 

the peri menopausal hormones aren't helping.... I feel like have a constant case of PMT and hormonal psychosis

AAAAGGGHHH!!!!!!

sorry... just had to get that out 

it is soooooooo frustrating

Really struggling right now

Hey @Define_normal I am sorry to hear you're struggling this morning. Your forum friends are here to listen

Hi @nashy, 

I really trying to keep it together, 

But everything is piling up and I'm crashing, vivid flashbacks, nightmares/night terrors, voices, mood swings, lack of sleep, money issues, son's health, family drama, day to day living it's all too much. 

Tried to  talk to the Dr but they don't know what course of action to take because they still don't have my files that they requested in March. 

I moved 16/18 months ago been living rural with no professional supports for that period. 

My partner tries but he know little about mental and it's effects so when he says stuff like you just need to stop focusing on the past or you just need to get up and keep going, he doesn't realize that it makes me feel like either he doesn't care or I'm over reacting.
