| | Notices | Welcome to PTSD Forum. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a life threatening, debilitating disorder that can break down a sufferer’s body through anxiety and stress. Further it poses a significant suicide risk resulting from the brains neurological imbalance and chemical depression. Sufferers often live in denial, thus this community is aimed at helping PTSD sufferers help themselves through others experiences, guidance and education. We are here for the sufferer, spouse and families surrounding PTSD. Spouses and family are too often forgotten in this equation, and often they receive all the worst that PTSD has to offer. If you're involved in any way with PTSD, get registered and help yourself now. Non-active members will eventually be deleted. If you are not a sufferer, carer or someone within the mental health industry, and active, then there is little reason for you to be a member of this forum. Non-active members with zero posts are deleted periodically during the year. |  | |

this place is a good place to talk and listen, listen to what others have to say and what has happened, to get advice and hopefully say something useful which will help others, it is good that it exists and hopefully will be a good place for people to come who need it. |

Yep... not much chance I will stop being me in a hurry Doobie. I like me just the way I am nowadays... maybe a bit rough round the edges, but a straight shooter who will tell it the way I see it.
Much appreciated. |

All I know is, this is my first day here and I read a concern from someone about anxiety and it sounded just like me. I have been so lonely and afraid. People don't understand how it feels to be so different that you can't even talk about it. And when you do talk about it, they think your from outer space. So you finally get too scared and stop getting close to people. |

I have to say thank you for me to have a place where others understand and don't push meds as a long term solution. I love having support to get off of them to face this, not the usual, they just have to get the dose right and you wil be all better. And the support while I go through withdrawals and the ups and downs in such a short period being here! |

It is exactly as you intended, Anthony and Kerrie-Ann. I mean no disrepect to those in the military, as they have made this a known illness, but I can finally acknowledge that the abuse I suffered caused the same illness for me and others and it is equally as debilitating! Thank you for making this possible. An anonymous American with PTSD. |
