Every little knock in the house/door I jump through my skin.

Hiya.

I dunno about anybody else but the smallest knock or noise makes me jump out of my skin.

Was in the shop and somebody knocked the counter and I nearly had a heart attack.

Gosh how I understand this. I was paranoid in the early days even terrified of the postman!!! - and he's a nice guy....

I remember jumping up in the middle of the night convinced someone was knocking at the door, I was shaking with my heart thumping - never ever been so scared. I really thought I too was having a heart attack....

It really is horrible, feel for you x

I'm like this too. If I get a knock at the door I'm not expecting I have to take a deep breath and see who it is out of the window first. It's horrible!

We have changed the doorbell, but I am always anxious when it rings and we are not expecting anyone.

My friend has been going through this since 2019.He has told me everything that has ocurred including the charges "making" one cat b and one cat c because originally arrested for possession they cannot prove that because both images had been deleted (See Ross Warwick Porter),They cannot say from where the images came,when they were downloaded,where they were on the hard drive and when and how they were deleted and no knowledge of for how long they were on screen,yet still the gestapo persist.

Both he and I suffer from PTSD and he is autistic.I could say more but it could identify him.I say that because I have seen a post on a forum here which with a simple "google" search identified the person concerned.

The way this offence is treated is brutal and inhuman yet no one apart from the good people who post in this forum wants to change it.Most alleged offenders need help,not punishment,
