This was one of her first posts and indeed was curious to me. She is a good member to have at PC, though.

However, it's still important, imo, to not discuss it as a brain injury. Just as I quoted, if soldiers and others with PTSD think it's a brain injury, they automatically think brain damage.

While I also have brain damage (minimal) from the accident that caused my PTSD, it isn't the same.

It is ironic though, in the quote I posted how they say it's important to not let soldiers think it's a brain injury that will result in a permanent change... ? are we then to quietly speak about the PTSD that is (permanent)?

Hugs to all who suffer here. I don't think I can live with this stuff much longer myself.
