Ep.123 PTSD with PANDAS & PANS + Being a Hermit + Meals On Wheels

Aly & Emily discuss PTSD and how it can manifest for PANS/PANDAS parents... apparently it's not just for war veterans! Who knew? Aly talks in depth about her PTSD "avoidance" symptoms and how it's starting to impact life in a negative way.

We go very in depth with this one particular presentation but another big way that PTSD comes up for me is when one of the kids begins a tantrum, my heart starts racing, it becomes difficult to breath, etc. Even when my brain is saying "this is fine! it's just a normal toddler tantrum!" my body is already on a one-way-train to panic city ◡̈ We can discuss that one another time! Hopefully these experiences can help you understand some of your own trauma reactions a bit better, or at least provide you with some laughs.
