Understand AI use at MyPTSD: all AI use is explained in our AI help page. AI use is by choice here. It exists if you want it, but does nothing unless you choose to use it.
A counselor once told me I had a choice, I can accept who I am and be "crazy" and deal with my symptoms and move on with life or live in denial and not manage my symptoms. A light went on for me at that moment, it help me deal with a lot of the self-pity I had going on and helped me think--yeah...
You can probably guess from my user ID I suffer from PTSD from combat as well. Still in the guard AND still getting treatment through civilian, va, and tricare. Just got 60% disability through the VA, partially for PTSD. It's always good to know you're not alone.
