Hi all, my name's Brewz, nice to meet you all.

I am a 35 year old dad of little two girls here in the UK.

This is the first time i've joined a PTSD forum since being diagnosed with combat related PTSD 12 years ago from my time in the forces. I've had all kinds of therapies to try and help, but most were unsuccessfull.

However i've now settled into a good, manageable form of therapy with a guy that i get on really well with, it's not easy but i like to think it's easier than it was a few years back.

To be honest, i have shyed away from PTSD forums in the past as i did'nt think i wanted to hear about everyone elses events, incase they triggered mine off. Plus, and it seems weird me saying this, but i not overly comfy talking to people about stuff i went through, or go through now.

That said, i watched a programme tonight about ex-forces and homelessness, and it went on into PTSD. I guess i needed to hang in company that understands to a degree.

Anyway, enough of the boring stuff.......nice to meet you all and look forward to finding my way around the forum.

Brewz.
