Unfortunately it's a stigma for people to think that only war veterans suffer from PTSD. Don't take anything people say to you personally, they don't understand. Your trauma and fears are equally valid to anyone else's. I hope you can find peace in your recovery.

So true, Christine, that many people think PTSD affects only veterans.
My belief is that treatment of survivors of any abuse helped professionals recognize and connect the symptoms of both.
It's helped redirect and define better treatment options.
I think it also gathers us into a support system that doubles the care and understanding we need as we walk our paths of healing...
Peace and Power,
Cap
