Re: ptsd

Thank you Dr.Sutter I probably have to read it a few more times to understand it.
One of the things I keep remembering is that when I was at my aunt's (she was rich and was able to give me food during WW2) house, she lived along a canal. One day some barges came by and there were people in there going to concentrations camps, at that time I only knew there were people in there but not knowing what their fate was.
I still feel sad about it, still get tears in my eyes, I remember being there.

After the war my cousin came back from a concentration camp and he told what he had seen there and what he had to do, of course this was a family gathering and they did not know I was hearing all this.

When I moved to the US I always wished I could bring my cousin over because he loved the American pilots he met in the camps, he died before I was able to do it.
I still remember the American and Canadian tanks that came down our street and liberated us. Not every war might be right but I am still thankfull.
I still believe in a strong military, that is the only way to keep the bad people out.

After reading your story I can't figure out if I could do something about these thoughts too, I have the feeling you are talking about something that is different.

I will reread it a few more times.
