Another newbie :)

Hi everyone. I am a 26 year old female. I have suffered from depression for my entire life (well, at least since the age of 6) and as I've just found out, also PTSD from growing up in an extremely chaotic/stressful home. I went through a brutal break up when I was 22 ( after a 10 yr relationship) that has left me in a fog about life ever since. I disassociate and don't react appropriately to most any scenario. I have failed at forming close relationships. I feel overwhelmed by my inner demons which make me feel like a burden on others. I think sometimes the best gift i can give others, is to just not get close to them, since I think I will just end up hurting them (emotionally) anyways. And I often do hurt others in order to stop closeness from happening. I've only been close to one person in my life (ex) and I fear I will end up alone.

Well that's my lonely existence in a nutshell. I am desperately seeking peace to heal my troubled and desperately longing soul. Here's to continuing on that journey.
