    Got Pulled Over By A Cop :(

    MIne has too but I feel that I'm more of a NASCAR driver than anything else. I feel people are going too slow or not really paying attention to the way they're driving. I will confess here that I'm going to tell my counselor that I have a bad anger issue at Nebraska drivers because, first of...

    Panic Attacks Screaming

    Ohhhhhhh yes! And trust me, it's like the rage is there and releases the spirit of oppression we feel keeping everything inside. I do it. My husband hates it.

    News Clinton Vs Trump

    I'm minoring in Political Science-Communication and Analysis. I will just say this election is a bologna ride where there are parts of pieces parts and a lot of poison spewing in the air. In arguing about Trump and Clinton, I will say this....I hope that I write like Ben Stein and talk like...

    Deaths Of My Friends On September 8, 2001

    As I'm sitting here not doing my homework, I'm sitting here thinking about my friends who were shot and killed on September 8, 2001. I have survivor's guilt and I have PTSD from some of this. I couldn't save Nick and Marsha was gone before I knew it. It's been 15 long years and the tears come...

    Who Do You Hide Your Ptsd From?

    I don't hide my PTSD because I want people to know it exists not just for the military but for other people. It's not a badge of honor, it's a badge of "I've Been To Hell and Survived It. Can you?" I guess I don't give a crap who knows. It doesn't change who I am. People know what I've been...

    Got Pulled Over By A Cop :(

    How do I say this? Okay, I'll say it. Have your cigarettes out and ready OR just wait until you are at your destination. I play my Gregorian chants from Pandora on my cell phone (my husband listens to FFDP and lots of other chunky metal songs which I don't mind however...) and leave it in the...

    Relationship Looking For Advice On How To Support My Girlfriend.

    I can't give you any good news, unfortunately. Due to both of you having PTSD, that's the first blow because each person's disability is different. The fire is gone and The Serenity Prayer comes to mind. You can't help the situation and sadly, you have to let her go. The space in-between you...

    Why Some People Choose To Get Help And Others Don't?

    The heart of the matter is denial. You know that your mother has issues and it's blatantly obvious she needs help. But, like my grandmother who was controlling narcissistic depressive, they don't feel that it's "right" for them to say such things or talk about such things. If anyone finds out...

    News Clinton Vs Trump

    I'm taking Political Science and all the kids wanted to vote for Bernie...why I don't know. The best thing I tell people is to look at the candidate's records from both liberal and conservative points of view. Don't let your emotions be your guide.

    Failed Suicide, Wife Mad

    You need to get to a hospital immediately. They can adjust your meds, get you counseling, and get you the support you need. Your wife is scared out of her wits and so is the rest of your family. Please get help immediately!

    Christianity/christians

    Amen! I'm spiritually Catholic and believe that in many circumstances Christianity deams PTSD. I ignore such doctrine because God loves us for who we are. Just hold on tight and try not to think of us as judgemental. My sinister in law states she is a person of God and she's nothing more than a...

    Death There Is No Way It Happened...

    How absolutely horrid!!!!!! There is nothing I can say except that karma will get that guy in the end or God will, whichever comes first. No church going man would kill another human being or hurt another person like that, picked on or not. My prayers and love are with you.

    I Can't Do It!

    Snowflake, is there anywhere for you to go that will make you safe? You shouldn't put up with people like this in your life. What can I do to help you? I wish you lived near me so I can help you out. I was called fat and lazy by my husband too and I'm stuck in the same situation. I can't sleep...

    News Donald Trump's Popularity To Date

    One thing is I'm voting for the right guy for the position and it sure isn't Shrillary. I was hoping that Ben Carson would get in but Donald Trump? Sorry I'd rather vote for Clint Eastwood.

    Finding Social Situations Difficult

    I, too, am feeling anxiety to go out and see anyone. I want to stay in the house and just exist because I lost my funding for my education and I'm looking for a job. Hopefully I'll find something to help me find something part time while I try to get disability.

    Has Anyone Else Discovered How Incredibly Cruel People Can Be, To Those Of Us With Ptsd?

    I seem to attract narcissists lately and am tired of it. I'm going to talk to my counselor to find out why this is happening and what I can do to stop this BS.

    I Feel Like A Fake

    Honey, there are things I've done that people would gasp at. There is nothing on here for us to judge you about because we've all had our ins and outs. From what I've seen on this forum, there's no reason for you to feel guilty or feel abhorrent about. The first thing you need to do is forgive...
