    The Taliban’s methods of warfare, in and of themselves, don’t even meet criterion A for a PTSD diagnosis. The man wouldn’t necessarily have to be in combat to meet that, but it’s a lot more likely if he did (which, by all evidence I’ve seen, he didn’t).

    Being paranoid is not PTSD.

      Which diagnostic standard are you using? None of the ones I have use letters.

          I tend to diagnose with better tests than a physician’s desk reference, but you do you.

            Apparently whatever you’re using doesn’t have letters in it, so I assume it also doesn’t have words, since those tend to be made of letters. I’m fine with this. You can do whatever the voices and crystals are telling you.

              Your stunning grasp of language shows why you’re only using (and misunderstanding) the dsm.
