Welcome to the forum, Ruth.
There is so much accurate content, support, identif. and friendship throughout the forum. Hope you learn and share much. Look forward to seeing you on the forum. As well as, looking forward to you finding a helpful understanding of your PTSD, and how to heal and how to live more peacefully.
Why do I care. Obvious. I guess some of the same reasons anthony does. My experience is that PTSD, its symptoms and pain is terribly magnified and worsened by having to go it alone.
We've found this forum now and there's much to learn, much hope and success for healing and a far improved life exper. to have and share with others.
Please take care Ruth,

and so glad you found us all.
Hope
