Abilene: Is he really my true Valentine? Love and PTSD.
During my latest wobble I lay in my bed, iPhone in hand and started Google’ing ‘How do you know you married the right person?’. Bonkers, right! Yes, I can say that now… Abilene
Abilene: I’m baaaaack! Let’s get talking about living well with PTSD when starting your new job!
PTSD or CPTSD, it’s going to be the same for all us SURVIVORS. When you finally find a new job to give a part of your wonderful self to it’s going to be very hard not to overcompensate for the existence of the not-so-wonderful elements of your ‘Self’. Putting yourself into the highest gear you can physically tolerate to drive in the opposite direction of living with your PTSD will only cause your nervous system to splutter and come to a stop.

Abilene: 2 x ‘Double Vodka, Soda and Lime’s… a break from living with PTSD
Not all women succumb to the calling of Mother Nature to find our mate for life and make babies. My friend and I did though, with bells and whistles.

Abilene: Youngest child off to school… utterly terrifying, by a Complex PTSD survivor
Sh*t… it’s f’ing hard. Not usually my beautiful public school education lingo, but it’s far from ‘jolly hockeysticks darlings’. For the 8th morning in a row, my little 4 year old boy was afraid, scared, terrified about going to school. Abilene
Abilene: I’m (a PTSD survivor work in progress) going places!
What do you other mums or dads feel like when you’ve been at home caring full time for your little ones and then SUDDENLY they’re both at school and you’re LOST?

Abilene: My heart belongs to Daddy, a Veteran with Complex PTSD
