I don't want to get into too much detail but there were more than a couple times that I have had to deal with a parent attempting suicide and now it is starting to effect me. I can't take yelling or loud noise and I'm nervous around guns and knives, I'm distant from people and introverted and don't enjoy going out anymore. Things have been quiet but my bearded are always on fire. Sometimes I'll be in bed or in the shower and it will comeback to me and I'll just cry and struggle to breathe. I'm afraid to tell someone out of fear of being criticized and being called a hypochondriac. But every online test says I have a 8-10 chance that I'm suffering from it and should see a doctor

As someone who has PTSD I can tell you that yes you absolutely can get ptsd from your experiences. Peoples minds can only handle so much stress before it's to much. Anyone who would criticize you or call you a hypochondriac should be ashamed. Don't be afraid to seek the help you need.
