Hello, This is an old thread but one that I hope is till active for you Mike. I am a 36 year old male Veteran and have PTSD. Four years ago when I was finally diagnosed by the VA and became 100% disabled my life changed in the most extreme way. I was working in an executive position that I...

My T is working on a similar thing with me. She has taught me that in stead of trying to STOP my anxiety all together, rather learn how to carry it with me. This is such a simple thing but something that I have never been taught before. I just want to crawl into a hole when my anxiety gets bad...

I think it would be a great idea to see what others think about "normal stuff". I'v spent a good portion of my adult life looking for what TV and media consider normal. I have craved that feeling of being loved unconditionally and giving that love back with out fear of loosing that...

Normal Stuff? Like what for instance?

Well for me I have been in therapy for almost 4 years on a weekly and then by weekly schedule. I just recently got a new therapist and she is much warmer then the other one that I had. For me this is a really big thing as I did not have a close relationship with a woman until I got married...

Its reassuring having meet my new therapist and the fact that she is so caring. Thats what my other therapist of 4 years was lacking. Not that she was not a good person but I really need the caring support if that makes any sense. My daughter field day is today in about a half hour. It was...

I did and she is awesome! I felt sooo good after meeting her yesterday. I could talk to her all day. My prayers have been answered. Feeling so blessed. All I need to do is figure out this IBS stuff. Its very troubling to say the least. Thanks for your support.

I wish I could go a month with out issues for my IBS. A week would be great. Even two days would be good. I have issues most of the time. Its horrible with the tummy troubles that end up with me in the bathroom for over an hour at a time. I thought it was from my PTS but have just recently put...

This is not an easy thing to talk about. But I have really bad IBS. I think. I have to be protected 24/7 because of it. Not sure if this is common with really bad IBS because I have never talked to anyone about it due to it being so embarrassing. Any help with this sensitive issue would be...

I have been down the same road you are going down. I was the assistant director with only the executive director of and organization above me. I was really passionate about my job. Most things that I do I give 100% just because thats who I am. Well when I was finally diagnosed with PTS I was...
