Just Play Something


Hi everyone, I was wondering if there are any other lawyers or law students on here. I m supposed to graduate from law school in about a year. I would love to hear from others in the field with ptsd. How have you coped with your symptoms at school/work? Are there any areas you have felt necessary to avoid? What do you wish you had known about being a lawyer with ptsd when you started? Also, if you work in a different field with similarities I would be interested in hearing from you. Thanks!
