| | 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. |  | |

thanks tactman. hubby was over 3 times. the 2nd time he got home , stayed for 3 months, then went back again. he volunteered for it, i somehow think it was his way of 'not dealing' with reality, just going back to what he knows how to do. he wasn't around me and our son for 3 yrs,so i don't think he knows how to be the 'family' guy. just the soldier. ya know what i mean? |

Well. Guess it's about time for an update on Colin. Still in Afghanistan. Doing extremely well. No harm of any kind. Seems he was born to be a soldier, like several others in the family. ;-) Told me last time we talked, he is now considering going career. Don't know whether to be proud or cry. In any event. Has a couple more months over there, then back home. Looking forward to seeing him again.
Jim. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
