PTSD is very well known and very poorly understood at the same time. I have a doctor that I have to constantly remind about my issues so that I don't have to go on medications that interfere with my mental illnesses. It's very frustrating. It's also frustrating because in their minds "they know best" and probably wanted to treat the pain, which is something they know more about, to get you out of the hospital faster. The ER is more of an express lane that anything else. I refuse to go back to one unless I have no other choice for that reason. Not to mention, they "review" your records but don't actually take anything into account when treating what you're there for the majority of the time.
