@@eugenio3048 Same. I think it may be because when you were younger, you were in survival mode and did only what you thought was the best at the time of the situation. It's easy to look back and criticize yourself for your actions during a ptsd moment and it can be very difficult to think about how amazing you and the things you endured are. I myself understand what you're going through and it really sucks. Everyday, I still struggle with the decisions I made when I was 8 or 9, but even when things are bad, we have to remember the good things in life and keep on enduring. Life is like a boxing match. You are trying to stay on top of it and keep yourself from falling down, but the opponent punches you in the stomach and the head. The impact may be so cruel that you are having trouble breathing and staying up to give it one last punch. You may feel that if you just end it all, the world won't make you their punching bag anymore and that no one cares about you, but there is a crowd cheering for you. You may not be able to see or hear them because of the ringing in your ears, but they are there and willing to help you if you fall. They believe in you and are so happy that you've made it this far. An entire army is willing to fight for you. Sorry this is so long, but I thought that maybe if I say this, it could help someone looking in the comments. Have a good day :)

Ok so my “traumatic event” didn’t cause me to get ptsd as I don’t really have any of these symptoms but I did just wanna mention. So when I was of a young age, I think around 6 or 7 I was on holiday and was swimming in the murky water with my dad when he let out a yell and was injured by a scorpion fish. He was able to be treated but at the time but wit was really scary as I was very young and seeing a parent cry and bleed from the foot whilst frantically hopping back to shore knowing that if it got you, you would be dead was particularly frightening. I had a couple of hallucinations when in water for a while after that and my mum still doesn’t get why I just hate going in the ocean. It’s one of my most vivid memories of childhood. So yeah, sorry for the essay I wrote - it’s just nice to get that off my chest Edit: thank you for all the love and support! Despite still being particularly careful and somewhat nervous in the sea both me and my dad are fine now 💛💛💛

being emotionally abused for years and also finding out that almost your whole life and family life is a lie because the people you lived with lied about being your biological parents and emotionally abused you and hit you sometimes if you didn’t do something right or “their way.” And also controlled almost everything you did and barely let you go and we’re extremely strict to the point of it being controlling and obsessive and many other things they did. Can that cause PTSD or CPTSD?

Yeah, literally everything you just mentioned can lead to PTSD or C-PTSD. Granted, the latter of the two is still somewhat debated as a legitimate diagnosis in some places, but there is a great deal of study-based evidence to suggest it in fact exists as a distinct diagnosis. Anyways, I encourage you to try therapy or counseling of some kind if you can, even if that has to wait until you leave that household. I do hope you are already out on your own or with better guardians. If not, i understand how hard it can be to live in an abusive environment, but you will get out eventually.

So many other things happened in my life too. (*Note: I've also heard trauma can be caused by other "smaller" things like bullying and such. Something I've went through for years.) Anyways...

When I was 6 I was diagnosed with anxiety disorder because of my parents divorce. But 3 years ago I was diagnosed with depression and ptsd due to a ex step mom who would call me names I can not say because I am only 15. What caused my ptsd is her getting in my face and saying if she wouldn't go jail she would kill me right her right now. So I will still have a panic attack if someone gets close to me with me allowing them to, which means it is very hard for me to go into shops, most of the time I have one of my parents on one side and my boyfriend or brother on the other side because I feel comfortable with them near to me. So I guess why I committed this is to let people know that they are not alone and kinda that these disorders are life changing and it makes it very hard to function comfortably without stress Ps this channel helps me know that I'm not alone And I love you😊😘

i got physically abused for a long time, just because i wanted to express my feelings about another traumatic experience i had before. they always told me that it was not that bad and that other people have it worse than me. i never learned how to express my feelings to others and i kept it inside for YEARS. i also got bullied in school because i was never good enough. never had a best friend, neither a safe space where i could be my true self. i stopped eating. not because i wanted to be skinny or lose weight, but because i didnt wanna take care of myself anymore. i was only 7 and developed a personality disorder (bpd), an anxiety disorder, an eating disorder and ptsd. been in a mental hospital and got a lot of different types of therapy. im almost 17 now and its getting better but i still have trouble facing the things that remind me of my trauma’s and other bad experiences. still having problems with eating but im working on that too. today i got the fantastic news that im soon finally moving out of the house where this shit all started, living alone with accompaniment once a week. ive been waiting for that news since i was 13! sorry for this whole essay but i had to express my feelings because it felt safe enough here :) i love you all and just know that everything is going to be alright one day 💕

I grew up in a violent home; my parents would have physical fights and were constantly screaming and cussing at each other since I was born until college. I didn't think I had PTSD because I never had nightmares about my experiences. I recently adopted my second cat and they sometimes have fights that honestly trigger my suppressed feelings about fights at home. It was really weird experiencing it but just want to share this with anyone who has similar issues at home. Your experiences matter and are important to you. Just because you don't have nightmares, doesn't mean you don't have any trauma. Take care of yourself..

Complex PTSD: When you're marinaded in trauma, you grow around the trauma. Everything that has to do with basic attachment to other people later in life will be one trauma on top of the other.

My traumatic experience was: I was digging a hole at the beach and I tried to make a cave. I (stupidly) stuck my head inside the "cave". It collapsed in on me, almost suffocating me. I remember parts of it, like screaming for help. I was in stuck in hospital for about two and a half weeks. I'm now scared that things will collapse on me, Also something that doesn't help this fear is the fact that my bunk bed collapsed while I was in it.

I honestly don’t know if I have PTSD or not but when I was younger I had a best friend I was related to who would constantly peer pressure me and made me me kiss her (like tongue tongue, like actual kiss and stuff) even after I said no. I cried when I told someone but I didn’t understand the severity of it when I was 5. Years later, someone triggered me and I started to have mental breakdowns and flashbacks. I felt stupid, worthless, silenced, and weak. I had a hard time opening up or even trusting others. I missed out on a lot because there was a week where I had so much work and I was so sad and traumatized I couldn’t be happy with my friends. Later on I opened up to so many people I loved even though I had a hard time opening up and they accepted me. It’s nice to know theres light at the end of the tunnel and lately I have been feeling better ❤️ hope all of you are holding up as well with whatever you’re struggling with ❤️❤️

I honestly love watching these videos, it helps me learn more about mental illness and stuff. And I learn what I could have, too. I showed my friend a few videos and helped them learn some things about themselves.

Being diagnosed with PTSD , I’m glad that I can get help with it , and have videos like these to educate me on my condition

Whenever someone reminds me of like putting something over my head, I get flashbacks of when I was little and my friends put like this blanket over me and sat on me I couldn't breath I had to use my force to push them off it still haunts me to this day.

I have PTSD over my aunt holding me at gun point when I was 10. I went on a trip to California with my grandma who promised she'd stay with me the whole time. She didn't. She dropped me off at my aunt's house and left to a whole nother city. I called my mom (in a different state), worried when my aunt got to drunk. She held a gun to my head, broke my phone, and pulled the trigger. The gun happened to be empty. To this day, I can't see my aunts picture without breaking down or have a gun in my sight. I don't know why the cops weren't called, my grandma came to pick me up (at a strangers house after I ran away from my aunt) and the rest of the trip told me how horrible I was for taring her family apart.

I was scarred when I saw a gruesome picture when I was 10 in 2006

I'm diagnosed with ptsd and can say that it's one of the worst things to deal with, specially because you won't see the world the same as others ever again, that's what I got for losing a lover to forced suicide due to social discrimination, everyone with ptsd has gone through the worst don't forget that. If you have ptsd and read this, things that help are covering your senses like seeing or hearing (depends who), that helps me go quickly trough triggers and also find someone that loves you enough to help you, don't go for less cause all of you deserve the best 💙

Me, with PTSD because physical and sexual assualt: _doesn't fall under the general catagory of symptons_ Me, sobbing: I'm a frAUD-

Thank you for doing another ep on ptsd. It means a lot to me. I've been deeply struggling to understand whether I have or don't have ptsd (while being too timid and guilty to talk about it with anyone) so providing reliable and open education on it is a lifesaver. Thank you Psych2go. Edit: could you do an episode helping educate on smaller more minor forms of ptsd?

I have experienced some trauma in my life, and I do have ptsd symptoms. I have dealt with terrible health problems at a young age that have threatened my life. It’s good that there is a video out here explaining it.

Please do a video on the Adverse Childhood Experiences Study !🖤 I feel it’d be really helpful to many as it has been very eye opening in my experience

Thank you for this video, it speaks to me on a personal level. I was molested at a very young age. 8 or 9, I suppose. It actually happened a couple of times, but I never gave it much thought because I was just a child and I didn't know it any better. Last year the repressed memory was brought up by accident and I realized that I'm traumatized. I developed an eating disorder due to what happened to me. I never feel happy or complete, it's all just foggy. A few months ago I even tried to seek help, yet my mother told me I didn't need it. Guess I have to help myself, so I came up with the idea of meditation. Also, I try to write down a few positive things everyday and convince myself that I'm not my trauma - that I can grow as a person.

I struggle with PTSD, never done much about it..... everything is so much, I do not know what to do with everything I know. These videos are great and they help me with things, thanks Psych2Go

i watching all of your videos and this is honestly a wake up call for the abuse im going through right now

I have the feeling we're gonna have a lot of people suffering from PTSD after the pandemic :/

I had PTSD from an event that happened whilst already having major depression disorder and anxiety. Then I got cancer, in remission now but have constant flashbacks and stressors

Your channel has helped me so much! I've learned a lot about psychology and I am so grateful☺ I am hoping to become a psychologist someday! And I hope you keep making such great content🥰

Thank you for making these kind of information accessible. I really appreciate it!

i haven’t been diagnosed with ptsd and i like to believe im okay, but three years ago i lived through watching my brother try to commit suicide and its changed me a lot. i wake up from nightmares, i have loads of flashbacks, random sounds remind me of the day, i can no longer listen to certain songs without breaking down, etc. when i have flashbacks its like a tsunami taking over me and im drowning. a close friend of mine tried to convince me to get help so i can get out of the tsunami but i never agree. when im more comfortable ill go see a doctor for it, but for now id rather deal with it on my own

three traumas out of those have been in my life and still currently, but i hope everyone have a better life.. if they did too , wish me for freedom and thank you🙏

It feels so weird to only see 3 views on this video

My mom has struggled with complex PTSD for almost her entire life, and unfortunately she made it part of her identity. Growing up with her was really hard as she was always blaming me and my father for triggering her or being abusers. She would casually talk about how my own struggles made me such a hard child to raise, as if it were my fault. As much as I love her, I've had to remove both of my parents from my life. Whether or not I've developed PTSD myself, I hope we both find the help we need to get better.

TW: suicide I have PTSD from the day I attempted to take my own life. I won’t go into details, but sometimes I relive the event vividly and even have paranoia that other people are going to do it. I’m much better now, but I just wanted to share my experience :)

Thank you for this!!! You just answered a question that I’ve been anxious about for months. You guys are awesome :)

Thank you so much for this video, I have had PTSD for years now and am only 15 and yet hardly anyone believes me because I'm "too young" or "wasn't in the military" when it's because of child abuse since I was 2 :( I'm in a better place now but don't get help for it as I've forgotten everything that happens, and just because I've forgotten what happened doesn't mean I don't remember the feelings and the smells (which is what I flashback to)

I have memories of my father hitting me with his belt when I was a toddler (sometime during the ages of 2 and 3). I never thought I had PTSD. I was only hit on 2 occasions so I didn’t think it was valid for me to say I did. My dad doesn’t remember it and says that if he had hit me, there would’ve been marks because that happened with his dad. But how do you explain why I also have memories of fearing belt jingles? Why the first time my mom put my own belt on me, I felt scared? How come every time someone gets mad or simply annoyed with me, I expect them to hit me? How come every time my father is in the room I grow tense and want to leave even if I haven’t done anything wrong? I don’t know if this is my total fault or not. Or maybe partially. But I’ve lived with this mindset for almost as long as I can remember. Never trust my parents. Expect the worst punishment for every single mistake you make (school, home, etc.). And the worst part of it: Never back down from a physical threat, instead make it terrified of you. If this isn’t PTSD, tell me and why. I’m really wishing for clarity in this because I don’t trust myself.

Another calming video 😊

I love your channel. You've really helped me through difficult things. So thank you so much

Thanks for letting me know what triggers my friends ptsd. Thanks so much i appreciate it

So how do you know that what you had experience is real and your not just a test subject and your imagining things

I grew up in a violent area, gangs, drugs, you name it. I’ve seen people get stabbed, shot, even killed. After seeing it for so long I just got used to it, it never bothered me until it happened to me. I was jumped by some people I though I could trust, they tried killing me so I acted in self defense, I grabbed a brick and just unleashed all the hate I had on them. Even though it was self defense the image never leaves my mind.

A separate mental illness can also cause ptsd, as I've had psychotic depression, and while it's lightened up greatly due to a major lifestyle adjustment and training, I still live with anxiety of seeing and feeling and hearing things that aren't there again... I suffered from immense insomnia back then, and I still fear every night if I will be wide awake for 6 hours like that time back then... I try my best to fight it, but my ptsd isn't powerful enough to constitute a diagnosis, as it was labeled "lite-trauma" simply because my anxieties and such made the psychiatrist tell me I needed a priest since my anxieties revolve around demons and spiritual activations of emotional turmoil... Kinda hard to deal with when the medication for ptsd is one you're also taking for psychotic depression AND fibromyalgia... Oof! But God's helped me, whether you believe that or not, I certainly do, even when I can deny the things I've seen as hallucinations, I still feel eyes watching me every so often and my parents say they feel it too, that I cannot explain, but I try to rule out spiritual manifestations. The constant wonder of if what I saw was real or not gives me that mild form of ptsd, where I don't have recurring memories about a specific event, but amplified worry over future events caused by a single being I can't even know is real. It's immensely complicated, which is why social distancing from my friends who've helped me through it all is driving me to want hugs... And I will say my ptsd isn't as bad as what I've seen from others, since I am strong enough to turn away from that fear. The only problem is I have trouble focusing on the pain rather than focusing on what I need to do, but once I turn from the pain, it's very easy to stop the anxiety. While I've seen people crippled in the corner with memories far less painful as I've had, but it doesn't mean they are overreacting or that my pain doesn't count. People deal with things differently, and whether you have ptsd or just anxiety, it's important to know what type it is so the adjustment procedure would work worlds better, such as mine was dealing with spirits and a pastor was brought in. Those with ptsd need leadership in those areas to help them adjust to this wretched world, sometimes even our wretched selves.

i was abused by my "best friend" i now feel like im nothing im always worryed i feel like i cant do anything oh well

0:31 The man behind the slaughter

You are CHURNING out these videos! Thank you!

My older brother was put in the hospital because their heart stopped for no reason, to this day the doctors still don't know why. He were in the hospital for about 3 weeks, and I tried my best to be strong and mature and help my family who was struggling. My mom and dad would take turns everyday staying home with me and staying at the hospital with my brother, so it was always annoying going back and forth after school. The only upside to this was that I got an excuse to not turn in homework, but seeing those uncompleted assignments still gives me anxiety. One day I came with my dad to visit my brother and he had a tube in his mouth that was drawing out blood. The doctors said they had used (insert how to properly spell the thing used to make your heart start again here) when he passed out, and it popped his lung somewhat and filled it with blood. Me and my dad said goodbye and started walk away, in my head I was thinking about what I had just seen and everything that had happened and I then expierenced blacking out for the first time. I fell over in the hallway and my dad helped me onto my feet and we sat down, I could hardly speak because I was breathing so hard. To this day I have PTSD from that, but we are all ok now, I just have frequent panic attacks and anxiety.

My dad died when i was 7. After that i ended up having nightmares, suicidal thoughts and was cutting for 2 or 1 years i think.so im not sure if i had it or not

Early squad where u at?

Growing up in a toxic/abusive environment, even if you yourself are not abused or intentionally victimized, can also be traumatizing and lead to PTSD. My sister had a lot of mental challenges and violent tendencies stemming from a brain injury, during a time when treatment for her condition was both expensive and difficult to come by, so she often fought with my mom and dad. I spent years listening to her throw various things at my parents as she screamed at them almost every night, sometimes almost getting hit myself a couple of times if I wandered by or something. And every day, she'd cry and apologize. It was very sad because she honestly couldn't help herself, and up until the late 90s we couldn't find affordable treatment for her. Being caught up in that as a child definitely took its toll.

One you didn't mention. Dealing with a long term illness and subsequent death of a loved one. My late husband of 40 years suffered an agonizing illness for 3.5 years before he succumbed. It was horrifying to watch him deteriorate while the whole time trying to save him. He was in isolation basically the whole time and we were required to mask up, wear gowns and gloves. I lost sleep, had nightmares, was irritable and experienced sadness and euphoria at the same time. I was anxious and angry. Its been just over 2 years since his death and things like smells and sounds now trigger my PTSD. I am recovering slowly with assistance and it's not so bad now.

What about suicide attempts? Can that give you trauma? Even if it was a really stupid attempt that did no physical damage ?

When your bullied so severely, your afraid to go to a store because your afraid of seeing someone from that school. Every time you think of the event you have a panic attack. You try to avoid going out so you can’t see someone. When you get nightmares every night that won’t let you sleep.

Yep. This are things that can cause ptsd.

For like 4 years I had a toxic "friend". She would always run to me if she had a problem, but also said that I can't tell anyone about mines. At some point (it's a long story) it escalated to the point where I harmed myself, because I was so scared about her (she has depession). And again, she said that I can't tell anyone about what I did. Now I have this big scar on my hand. Everytime I look at it, or think about it I just wanna cry. And when I see her, hear her name or I'm gonna see her in a moment, I start trembling and feel extremely anxious, I'm at the edge of tears. Also then I feel like there's something heavy on my chest and start breathing faster. I wanted to ask, if this can even be considered as PTSD or just being oversensitive? I want to seek professional help, but I also don't want to be that person that is overreacting or something ,_,

Idk if your ever gonna see this, but if you do, I'd love to see a video where you guys talk about the differences between PTSD and Complex PTSD. They are still different and not many people talk about it. Love the vids! Keep it up!

My dad use to physically and mentally abuse me and my siblings. I flinch whenever I think someone is going to hit me, one of my brothers get anxious whenever my dad vacuums cause my dad use to vacuum when he was angry, my sister gets anxious whenever she hears stomping. I doubt that I have PTSD (Same with any of my siblings) but from what we had to endure growing up, it leaves us questioning. Thank you for this video

I am early....hehehhe

I've been through a lot. I was groomed age 15 by a 21 year old. Had a relationship with him. Confronted him years later. He's a coward. I was sexually assaulted when I was 18, it only lasted a few seconds but I never forgot it. I was abused by my dad til age 26, physically and emotionally and mentally. I have BPD and CPTSD. I've also been assaulted various times. Life has been hard. I'm now 31.

the videos that this channel posts help me a little bit. i have selfdiagnosed many timed since my parents think mental illnesses are stupid and aren't real. well they are also the reason of my trauma. so these videos sometimes alarm me. for example: if i relate to all the points i research a lot to make sure that i don't falsely diagnose myself, but also so i do diagnose myself if i actually have it. so thank you.
