Episode 30 - The Love/Hate Relationship of ADHD and CPTSD

I have ADD (a form of ADHD) and CPTSD. Most of the time the two are in conflict with one another, fighting inside my head and causing nothing but havoc emotionally and even physically at times.

My ADD creates impulse issues, focus problems and tends to make me become extremely indecisive and become bored easily. However, it also allows me to be very creative, big imagination and can lead to some interesting times.

Unfortunately at the same time, because of my CPTSD I become scared with feelings of dread, anxiety and paralyzing fear that will stop me from ever letting that amazing imagination come out for the rest of the world to see! Also makes starting a relationship extremely difficult out of fear of rejection and not wanting to be hurt again or taken advantage of.

Unless you also are burdened with ADHD and CPTSD it is very difficult to properly explain it all to you so you can comprehend it.
