Post Traumatic Stress Disorder: intense memories of trauma that won't go away. Whether caused by the horrors of combat or other extreme trauma it lurks quietly in the background of ones day to day life. Some become so distressed by memories of the trauma that they begin to live their lives trying to avoid any reminders of what happened to them. This forum has a deliberately limited number of special purpose topic threads. The main PTSD Discussion thread is Open Topic Discussion. Please read the additional forum rules before posting and please post to existing threads.
