Navigating PTSD and Nightmares: A Personal Journey

PTSD MS TBI

Welcome to this week's episode of my podcast. I'm a bit late getting this one out, but life happens. Today, I want to share my personal experiences with PTSD and the nightmares that come with it.

I'm not a doctor or a therapist, just someone who's been through it. My nightmares are vivid and often lead to me acting out, sometimes even falling out of bed. These episodes affect my sleep, mood, and overall quality of life. I call them "ghosts of the past" because they keep trying to creep back into my life.

If you're dealing with similar issues, it's crucial to seek help. Whether it's talking to a therapist or reaching out to support groups, getting help can make a significant difference. It's important to understand how your trauma can affect not just you but also your loved ones.

Join me as I discuss the importance of not isolating yourself, seeking the right medical and emotional support, and understanding the impact of PTSD on your life and family. Let's navigate these challenges together and find ways to manage the pain and trauma.
