Anyone else in this boat?? Been dealing with Combat PTSD for 34 years and Chronic pain for 13 years means I've been having a horrible time of it for way too long now. I am having a pretty impossible time dealing with depression/anxieties/anger/nightmares/loneliness/and a host of other difficulities. The medications I have been through are many and not much help. The circle perpetuates itself and has been mind boggling as much as frustrating. Anyone with any Ideas are encouraged to write. Thanks
