blood boiling programme....if PTSD is about POST TRAUMATIC STRESS, where was the trauma in a religious debate which left a head teacher unable to work, strikes me as a bit of the race card being reversed to a degree.

Low impact RTC which left a nurse unemployed and on walking sticks beggars belief.

As I have previously stated on numerous PTSD threads, the worst has yet to come for the amount of service and ex service PTSD claims.

I find it hard to find a suitable closure for this post because the programme content has left me bewildered at the amount a civilian can claim for tosh, yet the TRUE sufferers seem to get well and truly fecked over for a few quid added on to their war/disability pension.

In the present climate there's no way on earth that the Government will give large payouts to soldiers. To keep on par with what civvies get it would cost them hundreds of millions. We are also scum compared to civvies.
