PTSD or Bossies

I don't know whether I should publish this post, any-ways here goes. After near 30 years I have found myself bleeding yet again from my experiences on the border.

I wonder if I am alone, recent work related stress has brought back my fears, nightmares and the hyper defence-ivness ( just made up this word) I came back to SA with. I did not think this part of my life would reappear as I had thought all this was dealt with or at best shelved but never forgotten.

Perhaps writing this Blog is partly to blame, I guess one could call this shooting my own foot, but who of us does not reminisce those days and wish for a moment we were back in them, I for one do.....

I am now asking is this being re-traumatised for a reason of some sort?

Ok guys time to dig deep here, I am asking you to state here if you have or still do suffer from your time on the border or even in SA doing camps in the townships. What is your experiences with PTSD and perhaps if you found a way to overcome, you may even share the methods that worked for you.

Looking forward to your posts
