Why I’m Here

I was an Intelligence Analyst in the Army, where I served in Iraq and Kuwait.   I started college the day after I completed my service in ’06.  As a result of my service, I developed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), primarily the from seeing my fellow ill-equipped soldiers get hurt in action.  I've had a hard-time finding PTSD support groups for women vets.
