Hey Jim,
Welcome to the family. This is a good place to come and feel safe with no
judgements being made on your PTSD because we all have it.

Take a look around and see some of the older posts.

What part of the country are you in? We have people from all over the
world.
I live in Oklahoma now but lived most of my life in NY.

Reggie

Hello ALL:

My name is Jim, and I have been in Public Safety for just over 20 years. I
started out young, as I am now only 38. I have done FD, EMS as a
Volunteer/Part
Time, and have been a full time dispatcher for the last 20 years. It was not
until I became my departments Training Coordinator, and doing research on a
class on stress, that I seen that I had all the classic symptoms for PTSD. I
have yet to be officially told I have PTSD, but my family Dr, who gave me
some
self tests thinks I have PTSD. Over the next few weeks I will be working
with my
insurance company to find the right person for me to start seeing.

I look forward to reading up on prior post in this group.

Thanks for letting me join.
