I love pretzels
Is this the answer to all of your problems? Or is this the creations for new ones.
Isn't that Scene calming. now close your eyes and just imagine yourself being there. what is the first thing that comes to your mind?
We all live in a world of uncertainty. We can't say what tomorrow will bring or that it is even promised. We just have to take it one day at a time. We have to remain calm, even in times of chaos. We are flawed, yet we strive to better ourselves. After all we are human beings.

IN ORDER FOR US TO DEAL WITH OUR PAIN, AND TRAUMA, WE MUST CONFRONT OUR PAIN, AND TRAUMA. WE MUST FIND A WAY TO CO- EXIST WITH OUR PAIN, AND TRAUMA. FOR OUR PAIN, AND TRAUMA, WILL NEVER GO AWAY. IT COULD BE CONTROLLED. IF YOUR DESIRE FROM PAIN, AND TRAUMA EXIST, THEN YOU MUST FIND A WAY TO CONTROL THE PAIN, AND THE TRAUMA.
P.T.S.D.
In order to try to lessen traumatic experiences from my trauma, I have to try to avoid the environments that is triggering my trauma. I know that it sounds easy. Words are always easier. Tear away from the norm, travel, see different things, places, people, if you can. By doing so, you are able to reboot your mind if you will, reshuffle the brain cells. Focus on beauty, and peace of mind. Now believe me, I know firsthand that it might not always work, I always have that mindset, that I'm being followed, or feeling depressed, or thinking that I don't belong, panic attacks, anxiety attacks or even that something terrible is about to happen at any minute. We have to try. I also know that it might be difficult for us to be able to just get up and go. We might not have the resources or the time. Here me out, when it comes to our health and wellbeing, try and make time. you deserve that much.
Close your eyes, Inhale, hold your breath for ten seconds or more, then release. If that does not work repeat the process. Think of calm places and things. If I can do it, I know that you can.
Have you ever felt that all is lost? It's a feeling that we all sometimes experience in life. And I can say that you don't have to have a mental disorder feel like that. I feel that way, but I also keep in mind that, staying positive will weather the storm, so I could overcome that feeling.
Please excuse me if I may have misspelled any of my words, I write with pain in my heart.

Close your eyes and think quiet thoughts
You are in control. You are safe. You are good. "The grass looks so green". "The sky is a clear blue, so beautiful". Thinking positive is a good thing.
My opinion is that in order for us to cope, we have to learn how to cope, to deal with our trauma. Not everyone's trauma is the same, and a person like me that deal with multiple traumas cope in different ways. So, you would have to find out what works for you. Email me. Let me get some feedback from you and your ways of coping so that I myself and others can learn other different ways of coping.

Your awesome website. this website is meant to uplift, inspire, and to generate knowledge about (p.t.s.d.), post-traumatic stress disorder, and other mental disorders affiliated with it.
About Me
As a young man serving my country for almost three decades, I can truly say that my journey has been a bittersweet one. Being young, you can always imagine the greatness that life has to offer, but reality has its way of changing your thought process. I Served in the "COLD WAR", and also in the "PERSIAN GULF WAR". I Worked for the "DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS". Working at the VA hospital, I Helped transported and attended to our veteran's needs. All awhile going through different traumatic experiences along the way. It was difficult to cope, to socialize, to blend back into the ways of civilian life. But I battled my trauma every day. Difficulty sleeping, sometimes difficulty eating, while uncontrollable depression, and anxiety, and panic attacks would get triggered. However, its triggered. Keeping to myself wherever possible. The fear of eyes everywhere solely focused on me. the whisperings that I think I'm hearing from every group of people I feel are always towards me. The overwhelming nightmares, cold sweats, and racing thoughts that's consumes my mind would fuel my soul full of hate for what has happened to me. Most importantly for what I have become. What is PTSD? Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. It is no joke; it's real Treatment would help some. I had to find something that would bring my attention to focus. To bring about peace and calm. To set my mind at ease.

HEALING
Healing does not have a time frame; It is a process that everyone must go through. my opinion on the topic of healing is that we all heal differently. Years can go by from the initial trauma, and yet the effect of the trauma remains. I can approach you in a calm manner, at least that is what you see on the outside of me, but inside of me is still trying to manage, struggling, trying to cope with the trauma. As my mother use to say to me, "TIME HEAL ALL WOUNDS". I just try to hold on to that, and use it as one of my tools. Maybe you can do the same. Let me know.
" This is where I vent". If you also need to talk about anything, please contact me. Other than religion, politics, or anything else not relating to the topic that make up this web site please with respect no need to become involved. Thanks.

P.T.S.D. (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)
Mental can affect the physical. This includes your health.
Life including daydreaming into your future is not guaranteed. When we're growing into our adult life, we have the tendency to make believe a world that makes us powerful beyond all measure. we are rich, we are famous, we are untouchable, we are infallible, and with that thought process you become confident no matter the nay sayers. Keep in mind that it is ok to dream, to feel, but with all that you process always remind yourself to remain humble. Kind of like thinking outside the box and input, WHAT IF?
We all suffer from something. We need to acknowledge, that life has obstacles that we must overcome.
