People who go around waving a sign about their PTSD probably don&#8217;t have it. That&#8217;s the unfortunate part of PTSD, you know besides the symptoms. Pretenders use it to their advantage, because we&#8217;re not supposed to doubt them &#8211; and they can use it to their advantage to explain their bad behavior and no one doubts them in public.<\/p>\n<p>I know a number of my readers suffer from PTSD, many of you have shared that with me and I don&#8217;t doubt you, and I sympathize with you, I really do. What I hate are the people who hide behind signs and use it for an excuse. You know what I mean.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, happy PTSD Day to everyone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HMC Ret reminds us that today is National PTSD Awareness Day.
