> I admire you so much for forging forward & I can certainly understand how PTSD would be there. I guess if there's a scale for PTSD I have mild effects & I know how tremendously even those affect my life.
Severe depression can produce a PTSD of sorts. Because my depression has been chronic and unrelenting for so many years, I scored very high in the "prisoner of war" axis of the MMPI. The doctors at the NIMH found this to be interesting. I found it to be vindicating. This is not just a painful illness, but a traumatic one as well.
