Very nicely articulated, Carly. I've been working on a similar piece for quite some time. But I have to put it away for a while so I can simmer down. Unsolicited medical advice upsets me. You have great courage to write about this. Thank you for sharing your insights. Chin up!

I write authentically about my journey with PTSD so that others may benefit from my experience. I also write about love and longing.

Thank you, Chris! I'll admit, I got a bit nervous hitting publish because I know not everyone sees the situations like this the same as I do. Glad to hear you and a few others are on the same page, though!
