I'm a combat veteran who served in Afghanistan, and I suffer from PTSD. I went over there as an 18 year-old, and came back feeling like I had aged many years. I experienced many things that I will never forget, and I'm reminded of those horrors each day. I had to do some awful things in order to survive, and I feel lots of guilt because of that. I've dealt with it every day. I hope that the public will attempt to understand PTSD and make improvements for returning veterans.

I personally feel from my experience with that PTSD sufferers seek to return to the environment that initially caused the condition because the mind has erroneously learned that to survive it must stay hyper acute. When this high level of over-stimulation produces problem causing symptoms, the person feels overwhelmed and wishes to flee to the last place they should be.

You summed it up perfectly. The same old Groundhog Day! I was an artillary medic who was ordered under operational control with the Infantry soon as we got in country.  I can't forget or stop having nightmares about the things I saw and did there. I can't be around large groups. I can't sleep right. Noises make me jumpy. I look for IED's every where I go. I am constantly on the guard. I am always depressed. I am proud to have served, but look what they ask us to give.
