...help - and found ptsd-online.org, set up by psychologist Britt Klein, of Swinburne University of Technology, to trial Web-based clinical treatment for people with post-traumatic stress disorder. After a phone interview to confirm her diagnosis, Fogarty was accepted into the e-therapy program. "I had a real gut feeling, Oh, this is just the right thing," she says.

There was nothing fake about that moment, and for some reason, I feel much more comfortable in Shanghai having seen it. Chinese beer tastes better to me now, I can hold...
