Veterans, do you think depression and anxiety brought on by stress are symptoms of undiagnosed PTSD or a separate issue by themselves?
I am a Dessert Storm veteran but didn't see any combat. At that time I was in the Army National Guard. Later I switched services and didn't have any issues until I was in the last few years of my service where I was diagnosed with depression. In spite of that I was allowed to stay in service. The med board cleared me for service.
Fast forward when I got out I started having issues with anxiety and depression. Some of my anxiety has similar symptoms as PTSD but I cannot point to one specific event. I do remember episodes is sexual harassment,
and I was a hospital Corpsman and saw some stuff through out my career that was gnarly...
I accept the depression/anxiety diagnoses because I still get a rating but I often wonder if there VA used that diagnoses because I am female and didn't actually have to fight even though I was in a combat zone and received hazard duty pay.

People pay a lot to online schools. I have a BHS from an online college (TUI University).

The light sensor comes on and the dash says to "Check left front tire pressure" then it blinks and says "Check left rear tire pressure".
I checked it and the tire pressure is fine. The darn sensor won't quit flashing.

I know it is random, but I think the super thin ones look foolish...at least if they are thick and bushy you have something to work with.

Not all painted rocks are equal. There are some really talented folks painting and hiding rocks. People find these things and some will be kept and put up. I wonder what will happen to the really nice one years to come.

I want to make a shortcut key on my PC. But don't remember how. I used to know it on my old computer. I'm using windows 10.
Also how do you type this symbol in Android phones? I'm using Android 7 Nougat.
It seems that this would be more user friendly.
3 AnswersSoftware4 years agoMilitary veterans: what is the one crazy thing you did right after you got out of the service?
I mean something you always wanted to do when you were serving but wasn't allowed. (If you are still active what do you plan on doing when you get out)
For instance when I got out, the next day I got a French Manicure and had long fingernails. Then a few months later I got my nose pierced. I still like the nose ring, but my nails are short again. I didn't like keeping up with the manicures.

9 AnswersOther - Beauty & Style4 years agoWhat is a good size for a prayer shawl (crochet/knitting)?
I'm starting to make prayer shawls for my church and am trying to make a rectangular one...I just want to know what the average size is.
On the bulletin it mentioned 3' X 4' but that seems like an odd size for a shawl...they also make lapghans and I am thinking that this size is for the lapghan and not the shawl...
Please if you have experience let me know what you think.
