Oh! Don’t ever dissuade me from taking a second look at a position I hold. Seriously, JimRob should issue Atta-Boy trophies to anyone who’s able to get me thinking about valid points of view regarding a subject I might be insane about....i.e. subjects people around me tersely label “Every Single Thing Ever, Idiot!”

My experience with PTSD is very different than the military-type experience and, in fact, was proposed to be pealed off from DSM-5 PTSD diagnosis and given the name “Developmental Trauma Disorder”. It’s looking more likely to be made a sub-type and given the informal name that’s been used for many years: “Complex PTSD”.

If it’s different enough for those kinds of changes, I’m probably barking out of my hat.

Are you suffering from a form of PTSD? You’re in my prayers! For a while after coming back some things made me “uncomfortable,” such as seeing a cardboard box in or near the road. I never had anything serious, though.
