It didn't help me when my older sister came into the psychward and yelled at me. It didn't help me when my husband picked me up and he too was so angry with me, not knowing that the way he was treating me is not the way you treat someone experiencing post tramatic stress.

I think it's important to keep in mind, Open Eyes (and I can understand from your experience that it's hard) that this (above) is not what is happening here, now, on this forum.
" People simply don't want to admit that they have an issue that they need to address, and perhaps grow and mature. " quote TheDragon

So I guess I took this statement wrong then. I was triggered by it, I admit.
