You could very well have had a breakdown, though I really don't like that terminolgy because of its negative connotations (i.e , we are weak).
However, very common in PTSD, is for one to "bury" the event deeply in the subconscious; however, so doing actually causes a "shift" in our normal life path, as we have detoured to avoid the pitfalls. Not until we 1. acknowledge that we have an issue. 2. are ready to deal with it. 3. find the right way to deal with it,
will we get better. I don't believe we will ever be the same, but who is? Life changes us, and we change to respond whether our life paths are pleasant our not so pleasant. These are the seasonings that make each of us the unique person we are. Thanks for your sharing, keep in touch with the Paxmeister!PAX
