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.

I'm very bad about this I can't handle someone even honking at me sometimes even when I'm in the wrong. My finger can fly faster than my brain can stop it.

I don't think there are enough choices. You get specific over "yes", but too generalized over "no". It's really a myriad of grays instead of black and white.

I used to have a problem with it. Now, I just look the other way and smile. I'm not in the same room as the other guy. I go my way and he goes his. We have no further contact, thus no reason to be angry.

Marlene, if you learned to cuss when you learned to drive, I hope you don't learn to ride a street bike! Your vocabulary will soon be vast!

Most definately sharing the road with "bad drivers" really cranks up the aniexty level in my car. I just can't refrain myself from commenting aloud even if it is only to myself. I've never confronted anyone and seldom flip anyone off. Instead I stew all by myself! This might sound ridiculous but I interpret their bad habits as total disregard for the lives of others that share the road with them. Besides stupidity bad driving has to be my biggest pet peeve. Often a "bad expereince" will stick to me for days, I'm almost to the point where I don't drive at all!

**As a newbie, It amazes me how enlightening it can be to write down your thoughts, and peruse others and learn I'm not all alone!!** Thanks a bunch

Jenn
