      I started haveing panic attacks/PTSD about one week after my first divorce in 1978. I was 22 years old, and married to my high school sweetheart. She left me abrubtly after we moved to Denver. We married in a very small town in Kansas, and after having problems with drug usage by both of us we decided to move as I had a job lead in Denver with extended family. I awoke one morning changed forever. I went from having no fears, to fearing everyone, and everyplace. Especially women in the beginning.
