General How Do I Help A Friend?

[forafriend]

Hi
I know this is off topic, but I am trying to get some help with something. I am interested in someone who has PTSD. I suffer from being BI-Polar and in no want want to fix him. I need some advice. I have been reading a lot of what everyone has been saying and if I can just bring him joy for a split second... I'm happy.

Hi foreafriend,

The best advise I can give you is let your friend know you are there for him. Do not push/force him to talk about his PTSD...let him trust you first...and then he might open up to you. Do not try to assume you know what he is going through or what he went through...cause none of us can know. Just be his friend :)
