Greetings Had a conversation with the mrs on any changes with the new dose. I noticed last night that I'm using one hand to drive, and my road scanning is not as frantic. Twiching is down, and I'm generally in a better state of mind. The Mrs said I'm not yelling in my sleep anymore, and her...

Greetings I feel ashamed.... Last night it was 130 am and I was doing my last stop, and as I rounded a corner in the facility, there was a cart full of canned food (boost, ensure, that kind of stuff). There was about 1000 pounds of the stuff, flash anger hit me because lunch just went out the...

Greetings I feel alarmed. The Mrs and I were talking this mornibg, and suddenly a memory pops out, the trigger was a wicked tuna commercial. I once did a law enforcement boarding on a small fishing boat, and the operater was not happy with my findings...... He picked up q gaff and waved it...

Greetings My issues are somewhat different than yours, and are not combat related, but like a gem, it has many facets and each one has a story. There are many here who have experiences from almost every situation, and most are very willing to help. My story is much different from yours, but I...

Wondering of I did the right thing, after 8+ years I rejoined facebook. I ignored it for few days, and it took more than a while to get up to date. And nobody there knows about my ptsd. What if I get outed? G

The mrs said that yesterday after driving all night, when I went to bed. In a very short time, vocalizing a very loud sound. It scared her and the dog, they couldn't get out of the house fast enough. I don't remember a thing, even after she said what she heard. Cripes!!!! G
