Just to clarify, pretty much everybody who goes through a traumatic event has what's called peritraumatic symptoms, which are basically PTSD symptoms; what makes PTSD different is the persistence of those symptoms beyond, according to the DSM-IV, 6 months. Sounds like you're doing well though, your boss sounds like a cool person. Anyway, I'm really glad you decided to do this AMA, I was a little disappointed when you'd said you probably wouldn't want to do an AMA in that gunnit thread, but really jazzed when I saw this here.
