Probably not, but I don't think we know enough about it. Now that thousands of guys are coming home with PTSD we will probably get ground breaking research in that area.
Good luck

No, I don't think PTSD has to last your whole life. I have it from childhood abuse. I've had counseling, which helps a lot. It waxes and wanes. If something upsetting and stressful happens, it can flare up again. I try to be calm, meditate, do deep breathing ...
There are a lot of vets who share your problem. Can the vets adm. help? There are lots of support groups too.
Good luck!
