carlie Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Thats the situation, i never had a problem with what was done while in combat until i almost had my life taken...my accident was almost 2 years after a did my last tour in the middle east...the dr states that my ptsd is caused by something traumatic that almost took my life causing my problems with taken others... I have flash back dreams, shakes, insomnia, homicidial thoughts. Being in big crowds stresses me beyond my limits not to mention being paranoid all the time. Angelo, Were you still on active duty when this accident occured ? carlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bufloguy Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 The accident even though it happened while you were on shore leave is a stressor for PTSD, and it sounds like it's been documented, so you should have the basis for a good PTSD claim.
