What makes me angry today & any other day.....the attitude of medical staff when you say you have a diagnosis of PTSD. I've stayed in 4 hospitals over the last 2mths & the problem in country wide. Most male Drs shy away from it making no comment, female Drs ask what caused it. But who ever does ask never ever thinks to say 'would you like to discuss this in private'...no I don't want to announce to the other people on the ward that my ex husband was abusive...not because I am embarrassed by it...I've gone passed that now, but I just don't want to share it with them, why should I?
Why is it with all the publicity PTSD has had that it is still a diagnosis people are embarrassed about? Come on medical staff, give us a break!
