I learned some very important things is this podcast. Thank you very much. I didn't expect to personally benefit from it, but was interested because I don't believe anyone should support or participate in any war, ever. My father was a "purple heart" world war two veteran. He lost a leg in France when he stepped on a landmine. My mom said the kind of mine he stepped on was like a shoe-box and assembled by school children somewhere over there.... At any rate, I never thought of my alcoholic, narcissistic and violent father as suffering from PTSD before, though I realized only recently that there's a really good chance he had a very serious case of traumatic brain injury from the blast that blew off his lower leg. Life with him and my mom was extremely unpleasant. They wanted to be a sort of "hollywood" couple, as my dad was a tall good-looking man and my mom fairly attractive. I find now I acquired several symptoms of PTSD from haivng them as parents. I avoid swaggering bully types and self-centered hystrionic types. I end up very much avoiding life because of that. I never really thought of my avoidance as part of PTSD.

Yeah, the more experience I get, the more I realize the various forms of PTSD and the various ways people cope with it.

In looking forward to listening to this episode. In my practice I'm conducting ptsd screenings for the VA. I'm doing an evaluation nearly every day and it's raising a lot of questions for me. For example, Vietnam era vets who worked full careers after the military putting in claims for PTSD at age 65 or 70. I know that this can certainly be the case, but some of these are instances of depression, some are severe OCD, or a personality disorder. Sorting through all these possibilities is challenging. Looking forward to listening
