V, if I could hop across the pond, I'd take you up on that offer.

As to the PTSD, I"m going to put my professional hat on and ask you what specific type of therapy the IC is using to help address your issues. Also, as to what meds you are currently taking... If they're not really enough to provide the threshold you are needing in those moments, you might want to consider asking your prescribing health worker about a PRN medication when it's really bad. With your physical makeup, and me not being an MD, I can't tell you which is right or wrong and only offer suggestions that have worked with others.

One amazing type of therapy that I've seen work amazingly well with trauma and PTSD is EMDR. Fascinating thing it is. To my understand it basically helps to rewire your brain, turn down the vibrancy of the trauma, and helps you to move forward. People that have been through it describe themselves as feeling "unstuck."

Just some thoughts for you to take as you will.
