My PTSD was initially diagnosed in 1996. My PTSD therapist thinks it’s a good idea to share my war experience, so that’s why I wrote this story. Physically I left the war behind , but it came home with me. It never goes away. It comes back in many different forms, but however, it returns it destroys everything in its path. It returns through us as anger, anxiety, aggressiveness, emotional distress, memory loss, hopelessness, isolation, sleep loss, and nightmares.
