I choose PTG (Post Traumatic Growth) over PTSD.
I received a text message from an old friend this morning stating that they needed to talk to someone. I know this old friend has dealt with health challenges for some time now. I immediately felt empathy for this person because I had been there before myself. Yesterday morning I stopped by my mom and …
Having been involved, passionately, in the PTSD debacle over the past 18 months what I've learned is what the title says, "PTSD is a choice". Stating this to most people who have been diagnosed will strongly disagree without hesitation. Why? Because most everyone feels there is no alternative. You're broke, you can't be fixed so …

Kyäni - Healthy Living Movement from Kyäni Video on Vimeo. Wellness and PTG When relating to Post Traumatic Growth, I see a resemblance here to the whole "Healthy Living Movement".
