    Feeling isolated

    This is unfortunately the norm. If I had the choice, I would have rather had a physical injury also. I had a horrible incident in 2011 and it took 6yrs to catch up to me. My final event was our staff trying to discipline an employee who was protected under ADA. What finally got my attention...

    Feeling isolated

    I can understand that. People don't understand hidden injuries or worse, don't believe they exist, so there's usually no support from work peers.

    Feeling isolated

    I was diagnosed in 2017 and medically retired from a 22yr career in law enforcement. Over the years in LE, the friends I had before I started the job pretty much disappeared. Those that have worked in LE will understand this. Well since retirement, I've tried reaching out to make new...

    Moving in sleep

    Moving in sleep

    Does anyone have problems with acting out what's happening during dreams? Sometimes I will dream someone is fighting me and actually kick (mostly), but occasionally punch. Once I dreamed I was being chased and fell onto the floor. Is this "normal" with ptsd?

    Emerg Services Pets added stressor?

    I can completely understand. They are still babies at 7 months. Crate her and get some "me" time. I use to feel guilty leaving mine alone, but I dont anymore.

    Emerg Services Pets added stressor?

    Wow, I had never thought about it at that deep level. I just figured not being able to sleep in and the constant attention he needs was wearing me out. But maybe you are onto something with the other part. Thanks for that reply ❤

    Emerg Services Pets added stressor?

    I was wondering if anyone with PTS or any other anxiety order discovered that a pet actually made their condition worse? It seems odd, but I have a 10 month old dog I raised from 8wks old. I love him, but it seems taking care of him causes a regression in my condition. Has anyone had this...

    Questions For People Who Already Have A Service Dog

    Does anyone currently have a service dog for ptsd that can give me some info? I'm going to get one and have a few questions. Does the dog go everywhere with you? Or can you use it during certain outings? Is it a pet at home or does he or she still work? Etc. Any info is well appreciated.
