My brother has PTSD due to time spent in Afghanistan. He has struggled with it through two deployments. He is in therapy but it has been a struggle for him. We have been struggling along beside him. I know he said the best thing that has helped him has been meditating. I know that sounds hard, but he said it has been helpful to him...that and his horses....I will pray for you. I hope it gets better.
