My Nonprofit Reviews

I joined MWPTSD in 2011, and within a year made a conscientious decision to discontinue accessing this group. It became very evident that this site was a forum for the Gourleys to promote themselves and completely exaggerate their "expertise" on PTSD. Granted, they ARE experts on PTSD in their own family, I give them that. However their responses to members were often very unprofessional, incredibly narrow-minded and opinionated, and they would often end up back-tracking to cover for ignorant responses by themselves or admins. The constant self-promotion and over-the-top idolization of Ms. Gourley was truly disturbing, and for me, discredited this group significantly. I am not at all surprised to read (and believe) the well-researched allegations of fraud. Spouses were often berated and told that they were "triggering" veterans. I must ask the question, then: while Ms. Gourley was fabricating fake member profiles, and fabricating suicide attempts so that she alone could race in and "save" yet another veteran's life, how many veteran's suffered increased symptoms of PTSD? How many veterans did SHE trigger, simply in an attempt to build her own pedestal higher? How can someone who professes to be about helping veterans play such a cruel and dangerous joke on them? Please read all of the fake profiles and all of the evidence. Make an informed decision to shut these destructive, power hungry people down. We love our veterans! We love military families! None should be exposed to such con artists whose goals are glory, fame, and fortune at the expense of our veterans and active duty military, and the families who love them. No, I'm not surprised at all.....
