[Erica]

Hello,
My name is Erica. I am not a vet. I joined this group because one of my best friends was in the navy and experienced severe trauma there and has been trying to recover/heal from PTSD for the past 8 years. I want to learn more about PTSD and how to be a good friend to her (because I haven't always been). Although I now live a state away from her, we are still close. Anyway, I am into natural health and essential oils and would like to eventually help her find ways to support her body with nutrition and aromatherapy. I do extensive research on essential oils for PTSD and emotional/mental support, but I want to learn more about the experiences one goes through while trying to recover.
Hope to get to know some of you all! Thank you.
Best wishes!

Redevil1111 has THE answer to all your questions. No matter how sincere you probably are.
Why not read Alexandra's introduction. :)

Good morning Erica, the first rule for anyone with PTSD is to respect their boundaries. This forum is for veterans only. It is plain and simple.

There you will find My PTSD. My PTSD is a Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) community catering all sufferers of PTSD, Acute Stress Disorder (ASD), those who meet criterion A and believe they have PTSD, and those who care and support (spouses, family, friends) for those suffering PTSD.

By all means read all the articles on here but don't post any more questions or you will be banned.

This site is explicitly for COMBAT VETERANS WITH PTSD this is clearly stated in the sign up and its plastered all over the site. No exceptions. You don't have the right to be here. Please go away.

Go to ptsdforum.com if you want to join a site to help your friend. A few minutes of web browsing would have gotten you there.

And you know this site is for vets yet you assume your entitled to still join?

Wow Jimmy your so nice. Makes me almost feel sorry for being such a dick. Oh well. :)

I actually think you should turn into a lesbian, hook up with your friend and send me the videos. Hell, I'll script it for you.

But that's just the squid in me talking...............no but seriously, stick around and do that.......with essential oils.

Gee Wagon... The navy is usually a lot more subtle in trying to get everyone else to come explore their homosexuality. Good on ya, man. :sneaky: ;)

Thanks, I'm a lesbian trapped in a male body. I'm just trying to help out here......I wonder if they need help? I'm here to help.

What I want to know is why Red`s been holding back?

I mean if you have all the answers you could at least share them around a bit you bastard. :cool:, no wonder the guys and gals on here aren`t getting anywhere, your hoarding.

Camper:cool:

I did a screen grab, actually. Hoping to find the magic google image search terms will eventually lead or a high enough res copy to read the words. (I read the articles!). It's a badass photo. Awesome concept. Beautiful composition.
