Hi Deadblonde,

I'm talking here from my own personal experience. I've been diagnosed with PTSD from childhood sexual abuse and from military service. Everything you list there I have been through and some of it I still have.

some of the symptoms of ptsd include paranoia, anxiety, megga levels of stress.

I have been working through my cr*p for about 4 years (I think, memory is funny, lots of the time), I can agree with anthony about you guy seeing his gp etc, as you both will need a lot of help through this.

I'm sure you didn't put everything down that he is going through in your post, so as someone who is a CSA PTSD & MILITARY PTSD survivor & knows a lot of CSA survivors & uk military vets, I would say yes he has got ptsd.

The books Celt recommended you read are some of the ones that helped me (and still do), sorry to put it this way, but I've been there, I've done that and I've burn't the t-shirt.
