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.

thanku for the very good question and answers everyone..

it KNOW it affects my family & my children every day... what a nightmare to not know when mummy's fireworks are going to go off or get out of hand...
or to wake up and not know whether mummy will be absent or present...

being aware of the emotional trauma i put them thru is torture... i way up the pros & the cons of them having me around regularly..

I voted sometimes, on a monthly basis. Because my son and I both suffer from PTSD, he recognizes my reactions and sometimes reminds me to breathe and focus when its getting the best of me. We help each other...
but my two younger children who do not have PTSD get worried and need to be assured. Most of the time they seem confused.
