| | 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. |  | |

| | Hehe, I use a map myself here. It took me about a month and a half to start getting brave and drive around. Now I'm not afraid to get lost and just consider it part of learning the city. It is a new adventure everytime!

| | I tried the GPS yesterday and when it gave me a different route to take than what I'm use to I got scared and went home. Talk about trust issues... Can't even trust a GPS, made me realize I have a lot of work to do! |

| | That was so funny about trusting your GPS. Here's why... My best friend's husband has one and uses it all the time. Whenever I am driving somewhere with them and his GPS tells him to take a route I am not used to, I ask if he is sure the GPS is right.
So far the GPS has always taken us on a better route  , but still, I don't trust it 100%.
Hugs,
