I recently made a profile on a dating website. When I made the profile I felt the need to put it all out there and let people know I was a combat veteran, I have PTSD, and I am on disability for it. And I even mentioned that I was a hermit most of the time and avoided social situations a lot...

On my last trip the VA they tell me that this particular VA hospital has discontinued prescribing benzodiazepines for anxiety and panic attacks for patients with PTSD. So they put me on something called Sinequan and tell me it will help with anxiety, panic, and social phobia. If anybody has...

I'm making this thread for anyone who is drinking and needs somewhere to vent or just speak random thoughts. I'll start. It's Christmas day and I did not leave my house or speak or see anyone at all. I am in hermit mode and the only damn reason I reached out this far is because of a bottle of...

That's how it works right? :O_o: Well I didn't exactly buy her a car. I just gave her $2,200 for a down payment because she would not have been able to get transportation of her own otherwise. I have loved her and taken care of her for three years, I couldn't let her go without any...

I know the title I used sounds depressing but that's because it is depressing. I am a 31 year old US Army OIF veteran. I recently got dumped by my girlfriend of three years. Her reasons for having to end it were ALL PTSD related. I am anti-social, I wasn't close with her friends, I wasn't...

I am sorry I don't come on here more first off everybody. I have been thinking that I basically had my shit together now a days but apparently I was living in a fantasy world. My girlfriend of three years broke it off last night. I guess this has been building up for months now and I didn't...

The more I stay in here, the more I disappear. As far as I have come.... I've known what side I'm on, but now I'm not so sure. THE LINE BEGINS TO BLUR. It's far beyond repair...and I don't even care....the desert is full of energy...dark...light..energy...ancient...energy...spirits...whatever...

It's called PTSD Coach and it's a free app the VA and the DoD collaborated on. I just downloaded it on iTunes but I'm tired as hell and I won't actually check it out until tomorrow. Just thought I'd give everyone a heads up if anyone has a smart phone with an app store of some kind. I've got an...

But since the supporters were banned it's just the same old shit every day with no change of perspective whatsoever. I enjoyed being able to see PTSD from outside eyes. I don't need another veterans opinion on this shit when he is having just as much of a hard time as I am. That doesn't help me...

Just saying hello. I'll be lurking here a lot now I'm sure.

My question is since I am on total disability for PTSD and cannot work, what the hell do I say? I have done my best for years to avoid situations where I am required to talk about myself but sometimes it's unavoidable. I HATE the social stigma attached to being on disability and it's a thousand...
