before anything starts, I honestly don't know what section to post this on. I just wanted to ask some questions. Is it nature thing since stats say that millions of people have this disorder? I really don't know. Anyways heres my question.

If a long time friend has PTSD, should you just deal with his unusual outrages, Or should you just tell him to get out of you're life forever? I don't know. I search online about PTSD and it just tells you to be sensitive and patient. I'm out of patients. He wants to beat my ass over the smallest things.

whats you're opinion? please tell me

PTSD doesn't cause agressive/violent behavior (unless you count suicide). Your friend was probably a just a douche before he got PTSD.

False. PTSD can cause anger, especially if it is caused by a fight-or-flight situation such as war in the military.

It is basically like ADD: you have to show some patience and understanding, but the people who have it should also learn to live with it and to control themselves. It should never be plainly used as an excuse for bad behaviour.
