Due to a surgery that went totally wrong like me waking up halfway through it,was on that slab for almost 11hrs. I spent over 24hrs screaming in pain till my voice gave out damaged my vocal cords and crawled into my brain to survive and during a shift change I reached out with the last of my strength the last gravel cords left begged for death. I totally get this song and gave birth to my ptsd which let the lid off of repressed memories. SOS SOS,SOS

Hello friend!

It sounds like you endured unimaginable pain and trauma. It’s completely understandable that this experience triggered PTSD and brought up repressed memories. I would speak with a therapist that specializes in PTSD, psychiatrist and neurologist tbh if I were you. Mainly so that way you can cover all your bases and make sure you have that proper path to recovery.

Support groups can also be a great outlet as well. Connecting with others who have experienced medical trauma or PTSD can be incredibly validating. You can find online or in-person support groups specifically for medical trauma survivors. Healing from trauma takes time and there will be setbacks. Celebrate your progress, no matter how small.

Hold fast, you’ve got this <3

Hi @HeartSupport_Fans,

That sounds so scary, I can’t imagine waking up during surgery. I would panic and be traumatized. Did you ever discuss the PTSD with a medical professional? I would recommend seeing a therapist that specialized PTSD, neurologist, and a psychiatrist. You should also see a radiologist to have a MRI scan of the brain & body. The radiologist can detect what something wrong with the function of the brain. I hope you are doing okay. PTSD is a rough battle but I believed someday the trauma may go away. It takes many years for people to heal from their past trauma. Remember to stay when things get difficult in life!
