I don't think 'ridiculous' is a fair word! It is yours, but I do not feel it is fair! I used that as a demonstration of how a label is used in a dysfunctional manner. I read threads on here again and again about how the person with PTSD or the carer of someone with PTSD should accept that is incurable, that is paramount to being a label, clumping all PTSD'ers together. For some it may be for others it may not! I also read how those with PTSD should be upfront and straight about it with those they are intimate with-Iwas being facetious with my comment to make a very valid point!

If you have two broken legs and you are afraid to put too much pressure on them while you are rebuilding your strength because you fear them hurting or not supporting your weight. Then yes PTSD may still be a concern for you as you will not heal those legs back to an optimum level. And you may still experience the effects of those broken legs.

However, if you brace yourself and apply pressure and stand for as long as you can until you have learned to completely walk then you will have healed your broken legs.

That is my pont! I believe it can be done, perhaps not for everyone, but that is certainly the attitude I am taking.

I am signing off from this now as I don't want or need to assert my feelings on this any longer. I appreciate the feelings of those who do not see this as I do.

It was good to joust!
