Jennifer's PTSD has affected

other people in our lives, friends and families.

First of all, of course, the isolation.

People start to ask, "Well, why didn't she come to this,

or why didn't she come to that?"

Or they may think that or whatnot.

The other thing is, is there's people in her family

that trigger her, as well.

And maybe not on purpose, you know, maybe on purpose,

I don't know, but they trigger her and she lashes out,

or she did lash out.

But that, I'm sure, has affected her relationship with

some of her family members, but now, she's in the process

of rebuilding, so it's, everything's coming full circle.
