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.

Default Hello - Request for PTSD Research
Hello, my name is Pita. I am a high school teacher in Australia. I have a student who is researching the effects of PTSD on family members.

She was wondering if it is okay to post some questions on your forum?

She wants to respect that this is your forum and not post without your permission.

Well, want do you think?

Pita

Hi Pita, more than welcome. Welcome along here. I hope your student gets the desired benefits from speaking with a vast range of people who both experience, and live around PTSD.

Thank you for welcoming us to your forum Anthony. My students awareness of ptsd was raised by a friend experiencing ptsd and the difficulties that she and her family were experiencing. She really wants to understand ptsd better and hopefully raise awareness amoung the wider community.
She will post her questions in the next day or two.
Thanks again for being so welcoming and allowing us access to your forum.
Pita

Hi Pita,

Welcome to the forum. Your student is more than welcome to post questions here and ask away. I am Anthony's wife and have been with him before
PTSD diagnosis (although he had it, we just didn't know what it was) and now post treatment - though it is an illness that is not curable. More than happy to help raise awareness of this debilitating illness as it really does affect more than the person with PTSD.
