Description: This video is my "coming out" as having a battle with mental illness this past year- PTSD. I briefly discuss some misconceptions about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and talk about what it feels like. Unfortunately I forgot to mention a few of the more tangible effects of the disorder, such as the episodes of inconsolable depression, uncontrollable rage, and daily panic attacks... but now that I'm feeling better, those are like a distant memory. I was lucky enough not to have done any permanent damage to my mental health or my relationships, and luckily, even my job as a YouTuber allowed me to get paid while working (very little) according to my own schedule. I am very lucky that it wasn't worse. I also have an underlying anxiety disorder which has also been diagnosed as anxiety / depression, but I think that has mostly been treated with medication. 👍👍👍 talk to me on twitter 👍👍👍 twitter.com/spumwack
