Hello all,
I have fortuitously come to this site after a number of hours searching. I'm looking into starting up a support group wher partners of Vets who cant come to meetings and social get togethers can meet on-line. I am a member of the Partners of Veterans of Australia and the one thing I noticed was that so few of the meetings were attracting the younger generation. The on-line group seemed to me a good way of bringing some of us together fron all over to chat.
My vet is Vietnam era but the thing we have in common is that we are all living with the limitations that PTSD thrusts on us. Even now we two are coping with the anger and the depression and some days are feral and others are great. At present things are smooth and Im revelling in it!
I feel that I am a survivor as we both lived with this condition without knowing it existed and that he had it. It's been so much easier now we know.
Hope to hear from any of you.
