    Move Increasing Symptoms?

    Noah. I hope you feel better. I just joined MY PTSD. I have the four different PTSD events in my life. I didn't know what PTSD was when the symptoms began. Wow. I was really scared. When I tried to move to another state, some of the symptoms faded. But I was lonelier than ever. This didn't...
