This is kind of a scary post for first timers to read ... maybe i need to reread it. What I'm hearing is pretty much like I've heard every where else ... Get over it...no sympathy here... you should have done something about it.

I'm not really looking for sympathy, but I'd hate to think I'm entering an arena with more "get over it" thinking. If i could get over it, i would have already done that. I'm trying to get an understanding of this thing and wanting to konw whether ptsd might be an underlying cause of some other things that I must escape.

I hope that I'm wrong about this. The others replies seemed to agree, so maybe i've just got the first timers fear of being rejected.
