Post Traumatic stress disorder or shock shell, pff just names, who cares about names or the crap posted by leftist crapnews like "Der Spiegel".
I suffer from PTSD and was retired in 1997 due to medical reasons (aka unfit for further service).
To fight my insomnia i need Trimipramine (150 mg) and in the morning i must take Mirtazapine (50mg).
Nevertheless i still sleep with lights on in my room, mostly with hardest nightmares when i sleep at all.
Many times i woke up, and had vomitted my bedding while dreaming.
My GF sleeps in a seperate bed because i can't sleep with another person even in the same room.
After all those years i still can't go to overcrowed place like public viewings during the Football World Championship etc. Even going to a supermarket full with people makes me shivering and sweat like hell.
Over the years i learned to avoid situations or places which could casue Falshbacks.
But what i "like" the most are comments by Monday morning quarterbacks and armchair generals like "get over it" or even better "everything will be fine again"
Everything will be fine again my arse.
The experience i made is that nothing is kept under the carpet and every Armed Service of any country does the best they can do for the men/women which are suffering from PTSD or any other kind of battle trauma.
