    Other Can a concussion make PTSD symptoms worse/more intense?

    Hi. My apologies if this has already been discussed elsewhere. I have recently suffered a concussion so my attention is a bit off, and I can't stare at the screen for too long. My question is if anyone has had this happen (not PTSD as a result of TBI but someone getting TBI after already...

    It Feels Like The End Of The Game

    So, I haven't started a new thread in ages and quite frankly, I'm not sure that this is a good idea but anyway...

    2015 Women's World Cup Football/soccer

    So, there's this little event happening in Canada this month (to July 5). Just wondering if anyone else is following? It's obviously not as big as the men's version but there is certainly high quality of play and not nearly as much drama and fake injuries as in the men's game. I am impressed...

    Remembrance Day

    Well, it's Remembrance Day here... It's good that we honour those who've lost their lives in WW I and WWII. However, I feel that their memory is not being honoured by today's glorification of war. Somehow this pathos creeped in that romanticizes the idea and instead of stopping wars, we get...

Perhaps it's because I can't really relate to anyone in terms the experiences that led to this in the first place...I guess the vets in the forum...
