One of the best parts of recovery is getting your feelings back. The worst part is getting your feelings back.
i have moved through so many emotions this last 2 months, it astounds me. i was reading back to the post just before i got the last major shake up from the universe and i found it pretty astonishing. it is eerie in some of its foreshadowing. i honestly had no idea that i would be experiencing ptsd the very next day which would be followed with a journey that has brought me to such amazing healing in my life.
i have even moved towards empathy for the person i believe to have instigated it all. i certainly now see that individuals that i had trusted and confided in were not capable of valuing that trust and that fact has very little to do with me. it has to do with another human's inability to live up to my expectations. (well, maybe not the state of colorado's either- but that's a conversation for another day). none-the-less, i am so encouraged that in a mere 60 days i have been blessed with releasing resentment and exchanging it for understanding, because in the end the one who will benefit from that move is me. and my heart, which already feels lighter and gayer. i am laughing again. i am feeling grounded again. and i am supported in ways i never could have foretold. or maybe i did in this post
Love will immediately enter into any mind that truly wants it.
Anger always involves projection of separation, which must ultimately be accepted as one’s own responsibility, rather than being blamed on others.

I'm not in recovery of any sorts, but find this to be true with PTSD as well.
Don't you think PTSD is a bit heavy-duty a diagnosis for what you're going through?
This is not to say a job-loss is not stressful, nor to minimize the situation that led up to it, but I think it falls under the rubric of the sort of tough situation all of us encounter periodically in life. I was under the impression PTSD is understood to occur after trauma rather more extreme in nature, no?
