Personal List of Possible PTSD Triggers (by
group)!
Anger, Fear of my aggression toward others, Road
Rage, Intrusive thoughts, Hypervigilance,
Hyper-arousal, Nightmares and Flashbacks.
Relationship problems with both males and
females, divorced 3 times, over 400
"One-nighters" low self-esteem, emotional
numbing, no friends just acquaintances, not
allowing anyone to get close to me on an
emotional level, authority problems including
work environment, seeing everything with a black
and white thinking process.
Isolation, withdrawal but still having the
feeling of loneliness, dissociation and
indifference toward the world around me, not
allowing people near me emotionally.
Grief, guilt about a wasted life, resentment
toward government and general public, survivor
guilt, spiritual alienation, anxiety, frustration
about the past events. Lowered sex drive,
hopelessness, sleep problems, low motivation,
money problems.
Thinking of death, suicide, homicide, depression,
risk taking, sadness, avoiding remembrances of
events that took place in Vietnam, avoid memories
of combat and the loss of life that I've seen.
Each of these topics is a story upon itself and I
will not be getting into them here. But do look
at the trend of the message from each. Most PTSD
people have these, if not more, that we have to
live with each day of our lives.
