Two thumbs up!!! This needs to be a commercial on Fox and American Heroes Channel, which are watched almost exclusively by the military retirees.
As Hillary hits her stride, she continues to underscore the differences between the candidates.
Thanks for honoring and respecting our veterans and active military.
Trump is so off base here.
Iâm not a veteran, but it seems to me if youâre exposed to the hell of war - to its stresses and horrors, perhaps seeing some of your close buddies injured, maimed, or killed -and you come out ânormalâ, I might worry about you.
Not only is it not âweakâ to suffer from PTSD, Iâd argue itâs a normal human reaction to extraordinary stress. We should understand it as such, and treat those folks appropriately without judgment.
Worse, it is something he knows absolutely nothing about, as he nor his children have ever served.
Sheâs right â and I really do hope more and more of our service members will stop to consider just what a Trump presidency would do to our nationâs security and our to those who choose to serve this nation in the Armed Forces. There is a lot at stake â and I honestly believe that Hillary Clinton is far and away the superior choice to be our Commander-in-Chief for the next four to eight years. I know that many of our active military are already supporting Hillary. I hope they can have a positive effect on their families and our retired members. Thank you.
Trumpâs comments about PTSD victims being weak are disgusting and show his profound ignorance, an ignorance so vast that it apparently extends to every subject beyond TAM (tits, ass, and money).
Of course, there would be far fewer PTSD victims to treat in the first place if more Congress critters had not given Bush the green light to go to war.
But letâs not go there, KK?
I have been saying this for years!
we have to flip the narrative that seeking mental health care is âweakâ. It should be seen as strength, to recognize that something is wrong and to seek the help you need! Not to suffer in silence because people will think youâre âweakâ
I say this as both someone who deals with depression and as a veteran.
Damn sheâs good.
And yeah, Trump is an assh*le who thinks he sacrificed something because he went to an expensive âmilitary academyâ.
I have trust in those who know their own selves: injuries, strengths, weaknesses; they have the capacity for true self introspection. I cannot trust those who havenât the capacity for introspection, which narcissists cannot do without panicking.
Iâve had therapy off and on for 30 years. I started therapy when I found myself hiding under a desk when my then husband refused to take my misery seriously. A year before that I had had a miscarriage, been in a car accident (rearended at 80 miles an hour, my car was at a standstill, trapped) that I should have died from, my dog and grandmother had died-all within 3 months). I was shocked to be diagnosed with PTSD, along with other issues. I understand the reluctance to talk about it. After all these years and gaining confidence, Iâll talk to anyone about the benefits. Itâs also more acceptable these days than it used to be 30 years ago.
Anybody who is brave enough to go to therapy has my unending support.
Clinton: Troops Deserve POTUS Who Understands Their His Own Mental Health Issues
There. FIFY.
Trump has mental health issues. Yuuuge mental health issues. The best mental health issues. Nobody has better mental health issues than Trump. When he gets done, youâll all be like, âHey, Donald! Tone down the mental health issues!â
Damn bubba!
Thatâs progress right there!
You didnât overtly mention AUMF or Hillary or the 1M dead she alone is responsible for.
Join Carlos in the fight against Primary Trolling in September Disorder (PTiSD).

Stay strong!

#######you pissy bro?

âYou mad, bro?â
Pretty distasteful in an article about PTSD, doncha think?
ETA: Oh, and I really appreciate how you edited you post to change the meaning after I had already responded. At least you had enough shame to put it in a tiny font!
#STILL PISSY BRO?

Oh my goodness! What prompted that? You began thanking me in this thread for not bringing up Hillaryâs vote for the Iraq War, and a couple of posts later youâre reduced to febrile senseless howling!
Disruptive mood swings can be a sign of underlying problems. You might want to get that checked out!
I will repeat this from another thread
What does Sarah Palin think ? (yes, honestly !)
She has heard Rudy Guiliani disparage the concept of a female president and she has heard Trump describe PTSD victimas as âweakâ.
She is a female ex-VP-candidate and has a son, which she says was âchangedâ by his posting in Afghanistan.
She must be pissed right nowâŚ
