I've always been pretty upset when friendships end or if i realize the supposed friend was just taking advantage and it becomes blatently obvious. I mean I still think about some of those things sometimes and have difficulty dealing with it....but its not the same as when I think about things related to trauma that led up to the PTSD.

Right..the vagueness was what confused me. Those tests always ask things like, "Do you avoid specific people, places, and activities due to a past experience?" or something along those lines, and I answer with a yes and then I end up with a high score in the PTSD section. But, I have one friend with PTSD from being in a fire, another friend who has it from something in their childhood they don't want to talk about, and lost another friend who had PTSD from being in the military and eventually killed themselves. My situation didn't sound like any of those things.
