      I'm so glad you're back Besty! Sounds like a rough time you made it through. Good for you for getting back on the right path! Hope you're coming back to the "no steps" group too! It's been through some changes - good ones, I think!

    • Close Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

      Grew up in violent and alcoholic home. Didn't really cop to the effect that's had on me until the dawn of my midlife. I think technically it's called Complex PTSD...whatever. Alcoholic myself. Lost my mother in a wreck 11 years ago. She'd been drinnking. I sort of took care of her in my young life. She and all my siblings.

      Treatments
