MyPTSD Pro
I don't know... I mean it doesn't affect us all the same way. My group was all Military sexual trauma sufferers, but like some cried when they got stressed, others like me folded up and glazed over, and a couple guys got angry, one even ended up in another group too to address that cause he was scaring his family, and he got more angry about that, with himself.
Like, I pretty much try to avoid people when I'm in a certain state because for one I'm unpredictable and don't trust myself. So yeah I'm neglectful. Not just of them but myself.. basic stuff fails me sometimes. And I'm not abusive to others, but I'm abusive to myself, emotionally and physically. I lash inwards, but some people lash outwards.
Actually, if I could do away with the neglect and abusive aspect I could handle living with PTSD much easier. Cause those parts really suck.
And those in combat, all I know is that is a completely different world I can't begin to understand. I really can't say what's expected of how someone is supposed to behave coming out of that experience.
