Mixture of what exactly!?!. !. !. !.I know what PTSD is as a friend of my ex has it really bad!. He was only 18 when he was frontsman in the 1st gulf war and didn't cope as well as others, but i've no idea what your therapist means by having a mixture!.
I've seen all sorts of therapists!. !. !. psychiatrist ( he determined wether i needed medication or not ), psychologist ( he determined my next move to some kind of recovery ) and countless counsellor's to help me with alcohol issue's!.
I'm glad to say that i've started CBT ( cognitive behaviour therapy) and find it's so much easier than past treaments!.
I don't know whats caused your PTSD to kick off!. !. !. !. !.I still don't have a diagnose, nor do i care to search for it!.
the present therapy i receive makes perfect sense to me and if you'd like to know more about it then i'm only to happy to give you version of event's, but basically it's a therapy that looks at 'JUST NOW ' rather than most therapies looking into ' THE PAST '!
The way i personally see it is the past is the past and no one on the planet can change it, but with CBT you can learn a great deal in how to cope with present feeling's, emotion's and mood's of all types!. !. !. !. It may not be anywhere near the answer you were looking for , but i hope you get help resolving it cause i'd be hell of a mixed up myself had i got told that!. !.!. !. !. but hey who are we to argue with the academics of mental health!. !. !. !.he he!. !. !.Anyway i'm running soooo late due to my wanting to help everyone!.
So i wish you well , and for tonight shut of from 'MIXTURE' and when you get your answer i'd love to know your cool about it and not so MIXED up!. !.!. !. lol!. !. !. !. Just a wee joke for a smile!. Have a good weekend !. Chelle x x xWww@Answer-Health@Com

Mixture!? That's first!. But she probably means you have more than 1 disorder on either or both Axis according to the DSM-IV-TR!. If she diagnosed you in the initial session, chances are some things might come up later, but right now, she cannot diagnose you with that because you don't meet the requirements for the disorder!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, I haven't been told that!. Ask her to elaborate!. It is not uncommon for people to have several issues going on at once!. The "mixture" is symptom specific I'm sure!. For example, your pstd can be the underlying cause of depression or anxiety!. Just ask!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
