PTSD after suicide attempt?

[xXoblivionXx]

Hey guys it's been awhile since I've made a post on here. So recently was the one year mark of my suicide attempt. And I feel like the weather and time of the year has triggered some emotions and such. The worst is when I close my eyes at night and I recall the memories of that day and then I start having a panic attack. I'm mad at my self for going through with it but I'm kinda sad that it didn't work. Last night was bad and i feel like I'm going back into my old habits. I've become the "emo" of the family and I hate it. I wish things would just stop :

Well.. I don't know too much so I won't be much help but for the depression, "seasonal depression (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seasonal_affective_disorder)" is a thing and I think I could have it for the Summer ... but for me it's probably more to do with whether it's hot or cold than the time of year itself. I hardly know anything, I just know I recently read some information on it and it "clicked"...

Well, as you just said, you want it to stop. So whats stopping you from stopping the thoughts? Is it because you can't? Well that's not true, you sure as well can as long as you try hard enough! Going through something as extreme as a suicide attempt and I am extremely grateful that you failed because you have an amazing life ahead of you. Just think of it as some sort of speed bump! You get over it and move on!

Alright yes a traumatic event like that can and may cause something such as PTSD. As backjurton said, you may have some seasonal depression, but that is mainly caused by dark grey cold weather means dark grey gloomy mood which is possible!! I'm going to assume that you don't have seasonal depression and the weather isn't the cause of your depression. I think you are more confused than anything since it is the one year mark of your accident which is giving you a variety of emotions such as depression, confusion, discomfort, and probably some happiness deep inside of you for overcoming this.

I'm not a trained psychiatrist, but i'm guessing you went to therapy after your incident, i'm not sure if you still do, but if you do, I would talk to your therapist about PTSD and what could be going on. If not, call up your old therapist that you used to see and talk to him/ her about it. Good luck and please try not to go into old habits as hard as it is, but if you can overcome a suicide attempt, you can overcome anything :)
