Edited to close poll and provide community with more information:

Poll results:

Percentage believing a Plural-Positive PTSD group was needed in the community: 85.3%
Total percentage of those who replied 'yes' or 'maybe' to the question of whether they would consider joining this type of community: 73.8%

Based on our findings, we have decided to post a proposal on Thursday/Friday for the community's feedback. (Sorry it's been delayed. We have 'Mommy' stuff. :p) We would also like to broadcast that if we create this community, we will need several moderators to help us maintain it due to our family responsabilities.

Thanks,

David

i'd be interested in just learning more about ptsd in general... i feel like i have a lot of the symptoms, but am really too unsure to try and get a real diagnosis...

lemme know if you start up the community.

one of my souls seems to be borne of trauma, but i need to communicate with her more. i had a dream concerning her the other night, and it filled me with compassion for her situation that i never felt before. i just didn't like her very much - but now, i want to open up in hopes of soothing her raw pain. i would definitely be interested in sharing advice, stories and other things specific to multiples.

Your first question could really use an "I don't know" option for those of us who aren't informed about the LJ PTSD resources. The second question applies to us, but the first doesn't. :)

Sorry about that. We didn't list one I think because of previous discussions that have been had in this community though about the lack of current PTSD resources specifically for empowered plurals.

Your response here will be noted though. Thanks. :)

thats 15 yes and 16 maybe so far! i bet some maybes will say yes if we're active. how many people do you want to start it?

It doesn't matter. We will also be posting information on the community (after the proposal has been given feedback, revised, etc) to other plural-positive places as well, so it won't just be people from here that we're hoping will join.
