Hi John, welcome to the ptsd forum. I wish it could be caged and forgotten forever also but for many of us that is exactly why we suffer so much from this, but there are many reasons. I grew up in Oregon, spent half my life there in Eugene, Crow, Ontario, Walton, Springfield, Harrisburg and Astoria. I have also lived in Phoenix Arizona, Rapid City South Dakota, Crescent City California, and now Oak Harbor Washington. I moved around quite a bit as a child apparently.
There is a ton of material here to read about ptsd from; the wikipedia on this site, things we try to do to feel better, what we get out of counseling, the meds we take and don't take, chat..
If you have a question people are always looking at the boards so getting an answer is pretty likely, I'm sure you might also find that you yourself can actually offer somebody advise if you were so inclined. This is a great place.
