Question:


Post Traumatic Stress and Alcoholism/Addiction ?


Answer:
"The post-traumatic stress field generally considers drug abuse and alcoholism to be symptoms of stress caused by the underlying post-traumatic stress condition"

http://www.etiotropic.org/Book1/Chapter4bz.htm

Follow the link if you are interested.Its not just me saying PTSD is a causitive factor in Alcoholism/Addiction. You could also read the article: Hate: The root of addictions on my website :http://Christianrecovery.blogspot.com

Dont let your "disease" blinders get in the way of waking up

Did you find that labelling your resentments as Post Traumatic Stress made a big difference?

Sure it does. It makes him different from all the rest of us schmucks that drank 'cause we liked it. It wasn't his fault, you see. "Momma made me do it."

I never thought about that actually. But since you bring it up: NO

If someone wants to say that Resentment is the cause of Alcoholism then that would be saying the same thing and I would agree with them. Im not even sure how many of the so-called PTSD experts realize that it is the resentment which seed PTSD syndrome.
