It would be unethical for me to use anything posted on this board without the author's consent. I have limited my visits to this forum to the two threads I've posted my request in - this should be easily verifiable by forum administrator(s). It was not my intent to make anyone feel...

Thank you for your input ikop. I am looking into the latest clinical trials, and other modes of therapies for PTSD. However, if I could speak with somebody who was involved in these studies on the other side of the science (and medical jargon), it really helps tell the story without ending up...

Thanks.

For some reason I am able to receive private messages, but unable to reply to some of them... This is unfortunate because I know the rules indicate that e-mail addresses need to be communicated in private... Could a moderate, or administrator look into this for me please?

@Ayesha The story would be for my graduate thesis. So, the smallest amount of consent I would be looking for would be somebody willing to speak with me on the phone anonymously and have the conversation recorded (though the audio quality would be much better if we could meet face to face), and...

That is one of the main issues that I've run up against. I started talking with the VA and other military NGO's, but they weren't willing to introduce me to the few patients willing to speak to the press because I am still a student. Would you (or others) be more willing to participate in such...

I admit there was a fair amount of naivete in my approach. I assure you I did not mean any offense. I can appreciate this group's desire for privacy, and I did not mean to intrude on it. I must confess this was not my first choice of approach. Unfortunately, after several weeks of phone calls...

As in, "I can't believe you'd even ask that, please leave our forum," or "are you really looking for someone to share their story?"

Hello. My name is Gauthier Giacomoni. I am a graduate broadcast journalism student in Boston. For my master's thesis I want to do a story on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. I was wondering if anybody would be interested in speaking with me about their experience. Please reply to this post, or...
