| | 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 Taking Up a New Project I'm getting a keyboard for my birthday and I'm going to learn to play the piano. I won't be online as often (I hope) because I'm some what dependent on my groups.
But this is a new endeavor that I've always wanted to learn, and I'm going to take some classes at the Community College as soon as I get my keyboard.
Wish me luck as I tend to get board easy and have a hard time focusing. The hardest part will be driving to the college.

| | Tammy,
That's awesome! I'm envious - I used to play the piano when I was a little girl. It's definitely an activity, at least for me, that never became boring. Your fingers are constantly moving while at the same time you are reading music. I hope you have fun with it, I think music is an absolute wonderful outlet for emotions.
Best,
Rachel |

| | Thanks everyone,
My birthday is March 7th. I think I might feel bad not coming in here and participating as much if I start learning the piano.
But I'm starting to realize that I should do the things that I've always wanted to do. Some of those things are way out of reach now, but some are still within reach.
