you can get it from traumatic experiences in life. You often get it later in life tho. (really) bad childhood etc.

Hoffa isnt a mystery, the circumstances surrounding his death is.

Trolls only desire attention and never contribute in conversations. I however do.
Though I do wish that this was me trolling because I would much rather be a liar than to deal with what my life has become.
SycoShaman sorry to hear about your father. If I may ask did his blackouts ever stop or does he still get them despite treatment?

They've subsided alot. But every so often I'll hear he did.
And when he stops by my house early in the morning (5amish) cuz he gives me a ride to work (we work close together), we dont leave till 6:30am so he'll sleep for an hour. When I wake him up he'll walk around disoriented and like wacked out and I have to shake him and then he'll ask "how did I get to the living room son?" and its because of the blackout thing.
Or when I stay over sometimes at his house, I'll be watching tv in the living room at nite and he'll come out and just walk around like he's lost and then I'll shake him and he'll snap outta it. Or he'll scream in his sleep "get the fuckin steel off me!!!" or something.
Still, it used to happen ALL the time, rarely does now. But you still cant make loud noises around him cuz it brings back memories. Like subconciesously (SP) and he gets really mad.
He takes medication for it. Not sure what it is. If you get them and have PTSD, go to the doc and get meds. And since your a vet, it should be free for you. Cuz alot of vets have PTSD and both Canada and the US in the last few years have gone to great lengths to support vets with mental conditions. My cousin who got back from Iraq a year ago has PTSD and is supported by the military (dunno the program or whatever) and my great uncle, who is a WW2 vet STILL has PTSD and is fully supported by the military still.
Cuz he was on the landing at Juno beach and fought till the war was over and we was drafted (not like my grandfather who was already in the military and a Captain, he was a military guy and had the whole mindset ya know? some ppl just dont react well to such trauma).
But for sure go to the doc. If anything, they will prolly give you Oxazepam. A PTSD drug.
