| | 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. |  | |

| | Humor Lower life forms like cats and husbands will only perform tasks like coming to you when you call them or moving the clothes from the washer to the dryer, then actually turning the dryer-on-
if there is a food-type reward. |

| | I own one of each species and honestly...it's just easier to move the laundry myself and save myself the time, hassle and frustration of trying to get either to listen or do as requested.
Something along the lines of teaching a pig to sing...waste of time and annoying to all parties.

| | At least cats show appreciation for your work and the rewards you give them.
Husbands just expect it from you, and get cranky if you don't do it to their expectations.
Dogs, on the other hand, love you just for being you. And they never walk away with that attitude that says, "Look at the butt." |

| | I decided quite some time ago that I needed to change my way of thinking about the 2 afore mentioned species.
After much deliberation I decided that if I got the urge for a man in my life, I would simply 'GET ANOTHER CAT' |

Well said, husbands ARE babies, with all the pouting and stomping they do when they don't get their way. Toddler-like even. |
