Hi. My name is Garrett Ebling, and I'm currently dealing with a form of PTSD called Adjustment Disorder. It stems from severe physical trauma I underwent in August 2007 when my car, along with dozens of others, plummeted into the Mississippi River in Minneapolis when the 35W Bridge collapsed.
My emotional problems didn't surface right away...it took a few months. I started seeing a mental health therapist roughly 6 months after the bridge collapse. It's been two years since that time and the struggle has become more difficult, enough so that I just started taking an anti-depressant with the hope of getting my moods in check so that I can continue therapy.
I decided to call this blog PTSDefeated as a goal, of sorts. My hope is that this can become a forum for others suffering with PTSD. I plan to share my thoughts and also provide resources that I come across from time to time.
Hopefully you'll find something beneficial from this blog. Please feel free to comment!
All the best,
Garrett
