PTSD Helppp

All my issues stem from playing high school basketball. I could never find shoes that fit and I felt like I had broken bones in my shins. I would get the worst tendinitis. I was also getting yelled at by my coach the entire time. 4 years of this and I basically lost my mind. I would sleep walk. Have dreams that my coach wouldn’t let me lay down. I guess I’m confused about what PTSD is. If all my issues stemmed from this wouldn’t that be a form of Trauma. Or it’s mind control. I’m pretty confused why I have delusions.

This sounds a lot like what is bothering me the most.

I guess it could be classified as long-term child physical abuse. Just a minor form I guess.

Here are the meds that I don’t like, but help others.

Which meds are you on right now?

Most of this is fixed with medication. My PTSD decreased a lot when I got on antidepressants.

I’m on Risperidone injections, Latuda, Propranolol. I really don’t want to take an antidepressant.

It goes away. I also played hs basketball, 2 years as a starting guard. Head coach was an ■■■■■■■ towards me, called me a monkey at one point because of my haircut. hated playing for him. blamed him on occasion for my struggles. over the years, these issues concerned me less and less and I now compare him to a disciplinary father (which I grew up without one).

it’ll take some time but life will get in the way. You’ll worry less and less what others have done and gain perspective on what you can do.

I really don’t worry about it. I’m just completely delusional. I don’t know if I’m having a religious experience or what, but I’m really paranoid.

How do you private message people?

Why do you believe all off your issues stem from basketball?

Sorry, I’m not on this site much, don’t know your history… but anytime I hear that, I’d have to chime in about seeing a pdoc and getting your meds adjusted.

What exactly are you paranoid/ delusional about?

I really got over it joined the military. Something definitely was lingering around. I can’t explain it but one day everything just got really hard. The only explanation I have that is logical is basketball. Ilogically I think it’s mind control.

I encourage you to view my blog post on persistent symptoms. There’s lots of good information on the blog ranging from job advice to hospitalizations. It’s still a work in progress, but the content is worth the view.
