    Living on own terms (or is it just "avoidance"?)

    OK, the ridiculously long post i did in "you know you have ptsd when..." thread brings me here. Specifically this part: I'm 25-ish years post actively living in the circumstances that brought me here. I can go months without any incidents now. Have built a nice life with my partner...

    Remission & done with this or just longer than usual period of quiet?

    First post. Diagnosed but feel weird about it and have not been involved with services in years. I don't think I would meet criteria anymore most of the time. That's the root of my question: How can you tell if it is really gone or if it is just that things are more under control but could get...
