A mentor of mine, someone who has always been there for me, recently told me this:
The further away you are, the easier it is to deal with.
Well, it has been 2 years and I am on the other side of the planet from where my 'event' occurred, and it is not getting easier.
My mentor does not have PTSD, so does not know what it is like
My question is this, for those that have had this longer than myself, is there merit to this statement? Or is this a kind sentiment from someone who doesn't grasp what it is like to have PTSD?
