Re: What is your dysfunction?

Autism (level 1), complex PTSD, general anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social anxiety, gender dysphoria, aaaand cognitive deficits NOS (specifically related to memory, which is probably the C-PTSD — but as that's the only one I don't have a diagnosis for, cognitive deficits were what was on my papers instead).

It sometimes feels as though I didn't go through enough to warrant all these brain issues (I'm not a physical or sexual abuse survivor, or even a war veteran). I feel like an impostor so much of the time. But here I am, and I don't know why.

It totally isn't about how much you went through. We all react differently to trauma and stress. I have PTSD as well, and mine is from school bullying by peers and teachers, not from anything like sexual abuse. But it is no less real, and yours is very real too.

I really hope you've been able to find help in dealing with all of this. You are here because you are you, and the world needs you. I really hope you get the chance to feel good about yourself because you deserve it.

echoing philstar - I didn’t get diagnosed until I had a very bad bully flashback experience that left me disassociating for a few days and my doctor recognised my ptsd. you don’t need to be sexually assaulted or a war vet to have PTSD from the bad things that happened to you. it’s called post traumatic stress disorder, not only-war-vet syndrome.
