| | 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. |  | |

That is an excellent thought Wendy, and I hope Evie answers once she returns home next week. There is no doubt in my mind that she would take care of any of us and not feel burdened in the slightest. Thank you for pointing that out to her. |

Even though we really don't know each other here on the internet, I feel like I have many friends here, and I feel close to you, I think about you and although I don't know what happened to you, and you don't know much about me either, we share PTSD and that's an ocean in itself. We have this wonderful forum to communicate through and I am very grateful that we have met each other and can help each other heal a little at a time. |

The whole diary is quite daunting, over 70 pages long, but the bulk of her story is in the first couple of pages. |

I'm so glad to see that your perspective continues to grow more positive, Evie. You think better of yourself and of others all the time, and I'm glad to see it! |

" I feel like I have many friends here, and I feel close to you, I think about you and although I don't know what happened to you, "
I said that earlier
I read your 70 pages and cried so hard for several days.
You are my hero. |

Thanks Nicolette and kers. And wow 2quilt, you read my whole diary?? God you must have a headache! ;) Seriously though thanks for the compliment, I'm glad to know others have gotten things out of what I write here. I really appreciate it and it humbles me. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
