Wow seriously? It's a blog post and they weren't talking to their therapist they were talking to some narcissist who went on to write about it to be smug. I don't think the person was saying they had clinical PTSD and neither am I in this case. It's terrifying that I have to say this.
- that_guy_iain 3y agoYou just said you had PTSD. I asked if you were diganosed and clearly the answer is no. It's terrifying that you don't understand the difference between stress and traumatic events. That you don't understand that it's not cute to compare yourself to people who have debilitating flashbacks. The difference between "clinical PTSD" and your "PTSD" is one is actually PTSD and the other is you need some help destressing. If you even had half an insight into how bad PTSD actually is, you would trivalise it. With nonsense claims such as "I got PTSD from being stressed".
- seanhunter 3y agoI didn’t say I had ptsd I said I had severe stress from which I concluded that it is possible that someone could get ptsd. Secondly focussing on whether or not someone has been diagnosed is kind of missing the point.
- heleninboodler 3y ago> I don't think the person was saying they had clinical PTSD Well, I think part of the criticism of the blog post is that it's written as if the person must actually have had clinical PTSD. Otherwise he wouldn't have any cause to get preachy about how terrible it is to joke about it and "knuckle through."
