Feminist Atheist got PTSD from Twitter

[url]http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2605888/Woman-claims-PTSD-Twitter-cyberstalking-says-bit-war-veterans.html[/url] [quote]As a result of her PTSD, Ms Hensley says she is working from her home, but she remains active on Twitter. On Wednesday she posted several disclaimers to her earlier tweet: '1) I didn't self-diagnose or decide to have PTSD. I was diagnosed by a very good psychiatrist. I'm not looking for armchair psychiatrists. '2) I respect military and would call commanders and other authorities only to defend myself against threats. '3) I don't discount military vets' PTSD. I care about everyone with PTSD. I want people to realize that it is not a military-only condition.' MailOnline contacted Ms Hensley for comment, but she replied that she is 'not well enough to answer questions'.[/quote] I'm not sure you people understand the point of this thread, and are specifically responding to the parts of the article I left out, such as claims about her illness being similar to that experienced by veterans. This is about the tangible effects of cyberbullying.
