| | 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. |  | |

| | I stood up for myself, emotionally, and physically today. I told someone due to my emotional needs, and physical needs I could no longer keep a commitment I had with them, and that they would need to make further arrangements. She tried to get me to agree to just a few more days. I was firm, polite, and said no....I know she isn't happy, and feels like I am forcing her hand, but this is about me now.
She will have to make further arrangements, or the decision that she has been procrastinating about.
Feels good to be assertive without anger, and too much emotional crap getting in the way. |

| | what did I do today?
*big smile* I held My two year old daughter a bit closer today. We played outside, ran around, ate ice cream.
I grilled some chicken, which *pats Myself on the back* came out pretty damn good.
I spent more time with My wife, and opened up more |

| | I signed Matt up for fiddling lessons to start after he gets out of the hospital, arranged to rent to own a fiddle for him, bought him a fiddle book, and did the damn dishes.
