Thanks optimize, I am just very tired today and I know that it would have helped me so much if he had just been more supportive instead of reacting the way he did. Sitting in a storm like that would scare anyone, never mind someone who has PTSD that can be even more of a challenge.

I thought about how well I did and was able to still work inspite of the fact that I was struggling. For me that was a gain, because I worked hard at regaining my composure in such a short time. It is a lot more encouraging when someone points that out verses making me feel like I over reacted to experiencing something that WAS very scary. I have put up with a lot in my life and whenever I complained it was always something that WAS a big deal and I really was in danger or very ill. Geez, I almost died and was dismissed for overreacting like I was not as ill as I was. I am really lucky to be here. Grrrr, it makes me angry.
