[QUOTE="JEVapa, post: 3943067, member: 41176"] I don't think it matters unless you are impaired or something. PTSD doesn't mean you're nuts like the rest of the country thinks all vets are. But there's still a stigma that ain't going away anytime soon. So you haven't been Diagnosed with anything yet or get anything from the VA? Then get your CCW. If you are getting treatment and the Bold text applies, then I guess you have to report it and follow up with your physician treating you to say you're GTG. I construe the Bold text as taking meds and regular mental assessments and seeing a [U]Physician [/U]regularly. Doesn't say anything about counseling...counselors are not licensed physicians. I guess it's a judgement call. However, there is absolutely no way I would ever tell any organization especially the VA, I had PTSD whether I had it or not; I don't trust my former employer not to put me on a list. I never brought it up when I retired and I felt fine when asked, so a big fat no for me. [/QUOTE]
