Sufferer Just Diagnosed With PTSD - Ex Soldier & Recent Events In Civilian Life

[Gary]

Hi I'm a new member recently diagnosed with ptsd .... I'm a ex soldier and am not sure what events during service started it off but am sure recent events in my civilian life have triggered or worsened it to the degree I'm now seeking help .... my marriage is falling apart and I am mentally hanging by a thread ....

On that happy note ... hello

Welcome, @Gary .
These forums are a wonderful refuge of support and understanding, in the challenging and often confusing world of PTSD.

I hope you will find them as beneficial as I (and many many others) have.

@Gary hi! Im glad that you are here, this is the only forum that I have ever found that is supportive and helpful, rather than revolving around self pity.
Im so sorry you have it so tough right now, but if you are seeking help thats great. As is it that you are hanging on. Just keep going.
