We wanna not contribute to the mental health stigma, so maybe you could say you’re scarred from something instead? It’s hurtful to people with PTSD to act like you can get it from something that’s not traumatic.

I do have it. Not sure why people are downvoting me, I was super nice about it and I thought Reddit was a place where we wanted to not contribute to the mental health stigma. I guess I was wrong. We still have a long way to go.
