| | 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. |  |

Hi Boggy,
Welcome to the forum. Wow 30 years of PTSD.........I don't even think they had a clinical name for this illness back then. Good to have you here, lots of information, lots of support and plenty of varied experiences of PTSD that contribute to this forum. I hope you find the support or the information that you need. Come and chat anytime, Anthony and I are often visiting here, when not tending to the usual mayhem of family life. |
