Brian's Journey with PTSD

It is interesting on all the new things that are coming up. I figured out that driving is a trigger for me. I have automatic thoughts of loved ones dying while I am driving. That sets my body into motion.

I can’t stop driving, because that is avoidance versus figuring things out. Now I have to be prepared for my brain taking me down the fight or flight path when I drive. Have to stay in touch with my body, and be prepared to take it on.

One more weird thing to add to my list of PTSD issues. They are coming fast and furious, and I don’t have a crutch to go to stop my brain. I took that away, and when I am ready I will discuss that in further detail.

Hope you all are doing well. I hope that you are able to take on your demons, and that you always get back-up.
