New social site for PTSD/TBI called PHILIA ( site launched 27 July 2011)

Philia (φιλία philía) means friendship or brotherly love in modern Greek. It is a dispassionate virtuous love, a concept developed by Aristotle. It includes loyalty to friends, family, and community, and requires virtue, equality and familiarity. In ancient texts, philos denoted a general type of love, used for love between family, between friends, a desire or enjoyment of an activity, as well as between lovers.

Philia is a site created by Heroes Today (www.heroestoday.org) and dedicated to the education and awareness of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Traumatic Brian Injury (TBI) in our military. We have provided this platform for veterans, currently serving military, family members and friends to come together and support one another in the process of healing. This is also a site to learn more about the complexities of PTSD/TBI and to empower yourself to engage veterans or military members in your local communities who may be suffering from these ailments.

Finally, a site that allows people from all over the world to share and grow together through interactive communication between individuals or groups that are learning more about PTSD/TBI no matter where they are located. Feel free to browse around, introduce yourself in the forums and comment on stuff. Dont forget to bookmark this site to your favorites and tell all your friends.
