I am now at a point of being embarrassed to say I have PTSD and OCD. It is not because I am ashamed of it or particularly hide it but more because of how PTSD is now thrown around. I have had it for years with the OCD it seems everyone is OCD about something. PTSD is going the same way with people commenting on how a little thing has given them PTSD. a friend says it frequently a bad trip to the shop has given her a night of ptsd. It hasn't and these people know it hasn't there are plenty of other words to say it has shaken them up a little or angered them.
So no when it comes up I hate saying PTSD or OCD as I dont think people actually realise what it is or believe you when you say you suffer with it.
Anyone else feel the same?
