| | 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. |  | |

| | Bosnia/Iraq Vet I also spent some time in the back of Dustoff helo as a flight medic! I was in Bosnia in '96 and Iraq in '05. In Bosnia I was near Caparde and Zvornik. In Iraq I was in Ramadi.
I've been diagnosed with moderate PTSD. I've been bouncing around VA groups for the past year. One that's really helped is at the Vetcenter called Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy or REBT. It's helped me, but I don't know if it's for everyone.
Best of luck to you all!
