| | 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. |  | |

| |  Nugget V The "PTSD" Blues and Smiles
Well what can i say, I lead a normal life with a little help from PTSD and all that comes with it, a wee bit of depression, a touch of anxiety, throw in the odd panic attack.
And a weekly visit to my Psychologist a monthly appointment to my Psychiatrist its a wonder things get a little blue every now and then. But being the trooper that i am, im tough on the outside i can do it , i can carry on.
Yes i can carry on, (with a lot of f---en help from my wife Jods) I made a deal with myself just after my accident that i would try to make someone each day smile or laugh, because of the trauma i suffered.
As I post my stories and not so tall tales I seem to make people smile and laugh without trying.
So id just like to say thank you to all that i have made smile and laugh because you have made me fulfil one of my dreams.
Oh yes and dont think for a moment im gona stop. Cheers Nugget |

Rob, you do make others laugh... but please ensure you make yourself atleast laugh daily. Some of the shit we face mate, we just need to laugh about it at times IMHO. Great work... |
