I'm no longer alone

I find it ironic that the one thing that has come about from me having PTSD is that it has enabled me to view it in others. I have a friend who has told me time and time again that he's fine. That is until I told him that I didn't believe him and that I knew he was hiding it from me. He confessed. I listened and it was like hearing someone tell me my own thoughts. I knew what he was saying, how he was feeling and what he was thinking. He felt as though his head was full. The inability to actually think, feel, process or act in any other way other than "automatically".

I've talked him into getting help. So now we wait..........
