    Marking for later. I suffer from PTSD, but it was something that happened to me before being made a JW. Mind you, being a JW and coming up against the thing in the territory all the time certainly made it worse, and being a JW scrambled my head up and made it worse again.

    Will read! Now I must go

    Thanks for posting the Facebook link and for BTT, Watchtower-Free!

    My previous therapist told me she would have diagnosed me as having C-PTSD if it had made it into the DSM-5. I'm currently seeing a Buddhist psychologist, practicing Insight Meditation, studying tai chi and qigong and taking a MBSR course. Somatic healing therapies are key.
