When I started therapy, I was diagnosed with PTSD during my 2nd or 3rd session. To be honest, I had never really heard of PTSD, and didn't really know what it was at the time. I was really surprised to receive that dx.

But, I'm wondering, is it really that obvious ? Or was it just because my T is a trained professional and can spot those types of things easily? I feel a little self conscious now because of such a speedy dx, especially considering the fact the fact that I started therapy for problems with my children, not for myself at all.
