Why I'm here...


Hi! I'm Lucy. I'm a Mum, a Wife, a Daughter, a Sister, an Aunty and I suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I've decided to create this blog to help me understand my PTSD. I'll feel very lucky if I get one reader but I'm ok with talking to myself (not in a crazy way!). 
Onto a little more in depth about me. I've been married for 2 years in February, my husband decided to join the Army half way through 2013 so we packed up and moved from Newcastle to Canberra. I have 2 kids, Immi who is 3 going on 13. She is absolutely hilarious or as she likes to say "ilarious" (said with an English accent). She is very stubborn, smart, gorgeous and the light of my life. I also have a son, Charlie, he would be turning 7 at the start of February. Charlie was born at 23 weeks into my pregnancy due to me having an incompetent cervix. When Immi was 18 months old, 5 years after having Charlie, I was diagnosed with PTSD and mild anxiety. Now I'm learning what my stressors are and how to cope.
Hope you enjoy the journey!
