"So case in point. There was >zero< criticism in that statement yet you took it that way and you made a whole lot of assumptions out of it." quote Michanne


No, I actually did not take it that way. I was considering the way you and I tend to struggle when we interact, you tend to keep at it, over look my personal experiences when I include that in my interactions, and dismiss what I say altogether. Someone who understands PTSD will not do that. However, I am saying that not to just isolate you, because in general it is not uncommon for people to not understand that about people who struggle with PTSD, in fact, I could have made that mistake myself "before" I learned about it and also experienced it first hand. Although, I did know someone who did struggle with it and I was the only person that person could sit and talk to. Here at PC, we have the ability to click on someone's profile and be able to see what they struggle with and take that into consideration as we interact with them.


Now, when I noticed that you were triggering me, I looked up your profile and noticed that you have Asperger's , I looked that up and read about it and how the symptoms can be similar to ADHD, but there "is" a difference between the two. When I say symptoms, I mean tail tale signs in how both tend to interact. Asperger's can be very literal, that is how my grand nephew is.


I am going to look up something I saw about a man who has Aspergers and wrote a book I saw his story on 60 minutes a while back. Be right back. Ok, this is his book

I actually can understand why you write long posts. I have tried to be patient with your need to cross examine me too. I would probably do

better at being more patient like I used to be, but the PTSD makes it very hard, it can over ride how I used to be so much better at that. I have actually improved a lot, at one point I had no tolerance at all, the PTSD

would just completely take over. It got so bad I just wanted to end.
