| | 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. |  | |

One of the kids I work with has something going on; very low self-esteem, no eye contact, low voice. I worry. He knows I care and sometimes will tell me what's going on in his head. Today I got him to laugh and to tell me when he wanted to be left alone. |

I did a good job at work today. It makes such a difference when I am positive and enthusiastic! I know that I'm helping the kids I work with feel the same way. |

Today I came across a young man that had car trouble. The battery connector had broken from corrosion. He didn't have the tools to install it correctly and couldn't get it to run. He as only a 1/2 block from my home, so I went home and got my tool pack. Came back and after 5 minues his car was up and running. He was really thankful for it. And I felt good.
I ain't no kid of mechanic, but I am fairly good with electrical stuff (if I can get to it). | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes |  Linear Mode |
