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.

Default Self Esteem Test
If you haven't already read improving confidence with PTSD and PTSD self esteem, then you may want too in conjunction with this test.

This test was written by Karl Perera. It is not "the answer", but may help you to consider where your own self esteem is at. Answer TRUE or FALSE to each question. If you cannot answer 100% TRUE, then answer FALSE.

  2. I accept myself as I am, and am happy with myself.
  3. I enjoy socialising.
  4. I deserve love and respect.
  5. I feel valued and needed.
  6. I don't need others to tell me I have done a good job.
  7. Being myself is important.
  8. I make friends easily.
  9. I can accept criticism without feeling put down.
  10. I admit my mistakes openly.
  11. I never hide my true feelings.
  12. I always speak up for myself and put my views across.
