Question

Do I have PTSD?

Asked for Female, 14 Years

I was sexually assaulted when I was 9, I get panic attacks. I went to a mental hospital due to the attempt of suicide because of my truama. However, when people ask me for details, I can talk about it.. But it always feels like I'm missing the most important detail of all. What they did to ME. What caused me to be like this is what I can't remember. I feel guilty and ashamed. In fact, a simple touch sets me off back into a blackout, my head gets numb and I cry uncontrollably. Do I have PTSD?
