It's that time again.
I suffer from PTSD, and have done since the tragedy 2 years ago. I am actually at work today. Last year, I did not go into work on 9/11. I did not, however, attend the memorial ceremony on Gould Plaza, in front of Stern. I heard the bagpipes as I approached and began to tear up and could not go there. I tried to go into the chapel, but it was not quite 9 and that's when it opens.
I am not going to watch TV, and I am not reading the online news or anything. I have said my prayers for the families of those lost on this day 2 years ago. I am trying to deal with my anxiety about this day (and really, every day) in as healthy a way as is possible for me. I am reading my Anxiety Book.
There is nothing else to say. There have never been words enough to describe the feelings that remembering this day brings forth in me.
