Top Secret


by: BillR on Tue, Oct 09 2007

I am a two- tour Viet-nam combat vet
with diagnosed PTSD, wanting to establish a relationship with a female and not knowing for sure if I should tell her what my “situation” is. Should she know about my ptsd or should I keep it
quiet for fear of scaring her off? I would like to hear from other vets with
the same situation or anyone who could help.
