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.

Hi Marine, welcome to the forum.

You don't need to be a veteran to get PTSD, you only have to witness exactly what you witnessed, hence why your having these issues now.

And here lay the problem in your mind, correct? You changed positions and now believe it should have been you who died? Or you wonder why him and not also you?

Death is not something we choose, it is something completely out of our control. We can wonder why not us, though all you achieve from that is mental torment and guilt. You feel guilty for living basically speaking. Why?
