Hello,I am a 45 year old with PTSD. It all happened when I was in the military,Marines. I was sexually assaulted by a commander I was under.He would not take no for an answer.This was in 2011,I was in the dumps at first.  It has been a long recovery with my family for support including from Wounded Warrior Project. The VA has been a good help too. Things have been better with my service dog,Louie when I do have the panic attacks.

Hello TriciaB and ruff ruff Louie,
So glad you have each other and thank you for joining us!  We are all on the long road to recovery.  I'm saddened to hear about what your commander did to you.  Grrr... bring him in and we'll court martial him, hehehe!  Power dynamics and authority takes so many forms.  I'm very glad to hear that the VA and Wounded Warrior Project are working as intended for you.  I look forward to hearing more from you and healing together.

I knew it was not my fault for what happened to me and did not deserve it at all
