Not so positive post: No I haven't. They don't happen all the time, just most of the time when doing delicate work. The rest of the time they don't effect me often or much. I have such a low opinion of the VA I'm not going to bother. I also can't count on the tremors happening or not to show...

I try to remember this as I go out in public. I look like a long haired, long bearded, tie dye wearing, miss my youth hippy. I wear what I want, not worrying what people think (to the best of my ability). I wear stretchy, loose cloths. Usually T-shirts and shorts, except dead of winter where I...

I can't even start because I get too frustrated and angry trying to put it in words.

False click - clicking on an ad just to get credit with no intention of actually doing anything on the resulting website (easily detected by it usually closing within seconds of opening, no follow through, and many other more complex ways). Side note since I'm here: I'm for what ever works for...

There is an after PTSD? Seriously - medication and therapy has done a lot for me, hasn't fixed me, but has done a lot.

Wow Angleachse. Just wow... Glad it's a big world and that's all I'm gonna say about that.

Thanx for the support all. I really have mixed feelings on going public with this (beyond the forum). I'm not after publicity, or my 5 min of fame. I just want Costco to correct their mistakes so others don't have to go through what I did. I still have a hard time entering the store, expecting...

If anybody is interested here is what I wrote about it in my trauma diary on Sept 14th 2013. It is a long read, I have OCD characteristics when it comes to writing. https://www.myptsd.com/c/posts/595853/

Ah crap. As I was about to close the browser I remembered the thread "What is wrong with the U.S.". I hope this doesn't fall under the same thread about frivolous law suits. I think it is legit because of the nature of the harassment and discrimination being against a disabled person. I don't'...

I posted this in the civie site as well. I know most here won't touch the other site with a 10ft pole so I'm also posting it here. ----------------------------- Today I received a letter back from the Department of Justice in regards to being discriminated against and harassed by Costco...

Sorry, brain isn't working very well today. I hope this is readable. I've re-read it many times, and I know it doesn't flow well, but can't figure out how to say it better. :( I've edited it enough I think it works now. Today I received a letter back from the Department of Justice in regards...

McD already has been sued for the reason someone got fat on their food, I'm pretty sure more than once, but it didn't last long in the headlines, and it was backpage stuff. No one took it seriously. Summary: There are nutjobs out there that will sue anybody for anything, and lawyers despicable...

I take it when I REALLY need some sleep, my mental state sucks, or my pain is just killing me (only take it at bedtime). It works really well for sleep, pretty good for pain. I have fibromyalgia a chronic pain condition that doesn't respond well to most pain meds, but does well with Mirtazapine...

Whirled Peas (say it out loud if you don't get it).

You read a post on a PTSD forum from someone who is self diagnosing a trivial matter and calling it PTSD, and you want to reach through the screen, grab the by collar and shout at them "YOU DON'T WANT PTSD"!

I feel like such a jack ass for trying so hard to be a nice guy. Almost makes me want to be that asshole 24/7 like I used to be. It's taken a lot of effort to re-humanise myself, and times like this make me wonder if it is worth it.

Update:

Welcome to the forum.

Lol, no. I don't believe in crystals or dream catchers. I do respect those who do, it's just not for me. Although... once again, as a teenager I might have, but I'll never tell. ;)

Just because I live in California, wear tie died shirts, shorts, sandals, have long hair and a really long beard does not mean I'm a stoner. I haven't gotten high since '85 as a kid. Ok, I was a stoner back then, but not now. The only drugs I use are prescribed to me by a doctor or shrink. I...

I spelled it that way on purpose because my last name is Barber. I added "ian" because I wanted to morph it to a personal form of Barbarian. Congratulations on being able to spell abnjmcw4. How do you faceroll that reliably every time? As for how I posted to Michelle, I was respectful to her. I...

Michelle, this site is for active duty and veterans only who developed PTSD from serving in a combat zone. This is a very strictly enforced rule. It is not for supporters of service members or vets. There is a sister site by the same owners of this site for people who suffer from all other PTSD...

Orga...zing... Orangutan'ing.... Origami sizing... what? I have a low tolerance to trying to get stuff organized. I just short circuit between the ears. On average I have 5-10 min of functionality before the short circuit effect shuts me down. It's very unpleasant mentally so I don't do it...

It takes two people to have a mental illness.... So if I'm sitting alone in my computer room.... I'm ok? :D:ROFLMAO::confused:
