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.

No worries GH. You can take as long as you need. It wont time you out Im sure. Im sure you are very bright. My brother is extremely intelligent but is like you in that it takes him a bit to communicate effectively at times. Be it written or spoken, English to him has always come a little less easily than to others. Thank you for your coments and I would love to hear any more you may have.

Yep, thats PTSD hope. As you heal your anxiety, regain confidence, this corrects itself as your brain is no longer cluttered with anxiety.
