| | 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. |  | |

| | Now I've gone and done it. As someone who is extremely gadget challenged I should have known not to mess around in places I know nothing about. First I can't win a bid on ebay for the stupid little cloth doll I want and now it seems I have "2" of them. Apparently, during my ebay searches and wondering I bid on a second doll! Now I have 2 of them. In the beginning I could not get a single one-NOW I GOT 2! ! ! ! ! ! ! LOL
AH! the adventures of Grama Herc Just hope I don't have anymore "surprises" waiting for me. Don't think I bid on anymore, but then WHO KNOWS with me EGAD! |

| | Gratitude List My 83 yr old mum keeps a gratitude journal(diary). Every evenng she lists the things she was grateful for on that day.
Some days she does not make an entry but most of the time she does. We recently moved and she misplaced her journal and was upset till we found it. She sat down and turned to the very first page and began to read. She was filled to the core with gratitude when she saw all the things listed on those pages.
Talk about putting someone in a good mood. She was happy for weeks. |

| | Congratulations Herc on finding the dolls. What a journey you had to get them.
I'll also give you a big cheer  for pushing through the agoraphobia.
Like your grandmother, I keep a gratitude journal. One time I even wrote that I was grateful for PTSD.
Cheers,
