PTSD Presents in Many Forms
I have a child one month from 16, female believes she was born in the wrong body, should have been a boy. Has never been able to form friendships unless online. Always depressed diagnosed with ADHD, PTSD, very smart but exhibits some autistic symptoms soon to be tested. Genetic testing done with no abnormal findings. Trauma brain testing just dome. She was born with bi-lateral cleft pallet which is in process of being corrected but has been halted surgeries because of her emotional state until she is stabilized. The school and local mental health facility whom failed in motivating her to engage in any group or individual talk therapy and after fighting with them has agreed that residential treatment is needed. I would like to know what recommendation you may have for treatment in New England.

Hi, as a result of sever PTSD, I've tried every treatment imaginable, including TMS, Ketamine/Mushroom/MDMA and ECT therapy. Nothing has worked for over 25 years. Except alcohol. When I drink a bottle of wine I feel normal, happy, healed and at peace with the world. I am wondering, considering the severity and intractability of my mental illnesses, does being a drunk justify my decisions regarding substance abuse?

I started having intense depression and anxiety out of nowhere about a week ago. About three weeks ago I was in a pretty significant car wreck where I was banged up a little, and about a month and a half ago I had a bad mushroom trip where I believed I had died. I have also done some competitive MMA fights as well, but I haven't done any in a few years, and do kratom on a regular daily basis. Any thoughts on what could help my situation?
