I doubt it's PTSD because it wasn't traumatic as a car crash...


Question Posted Thursday February 19 2015, 11:55 am

Yesterday was my first day of English class and it's in the same building I met my best friend. I sort of felt like my anxiety begin to rise as I passed by the classroom where we met. I doubt it's PTSD because it wasn't traumatic as a car crash. But I stopped walking for a second before I want to class and pictured me and her laughing outside of the room like we used to, sort of an imagery of us. It's probably just me freaking out being apart from her but I don't know...I don't think seeing images of any sort is good

Hon, You've written in often lately, all about the friend who's moved away and you miss her lots. You've had others and myself try to encourage you and give our best advice.

Since you're still asking about basically things related to the core issue here, I would like to make a suggestion:

Could it be a reasonable situation, that within yourself, you carried the possibility of developing anxiety issues in your life and it took something like losing your friend to kick it into reality? the other things you are feeling too seem to be overwhelming you to the point that it may affect your ability to move on with your life. Just a suggestion again, counselors are there for things like this. You may need to see someone professionally for a while to help you work through this. You don't need to have a mental illness to qualify for seeing a mental health counselor. I went to see one during a particularly stressful time in my life and it helped. I highly recommend you do this dear. I am almost sure it would help. If you're not of adult age yet, let the parents know how this is affecting you and ask them to see a counselor which most likely will need to be recommended by your family doctor/insurance plan. If they don't take you seriously, go talk to your school counselors and ask if they can hook you up with professional counseling for your issues with loss of friend. good luck.
