Always on Guard Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is characterized by the re-living of traumatic events through such things as flashbacks or nightmares. It involves not only extreme anxiety but also emotional numbing as we try and deal with the stress induced by the traumatic event(s). |

Whether experienced personally or as a witness, traumatic events can have a very powerful effect on us. They hit home in a very real,
imminent and shocking way just how vulnerable we really are. Commonly associated with war veterans (with good reason) we don't have to
experience the horrors of war to develop PTSD. Anything that induces hurt, fear and shock can do the same.Constant abuse (both physical and mental) can be a very common cause.
The current worldview of post-traumatic stress problems is based on the medical model, which views such problems as mental illnesses, 'disordered behaviour',
caused by something going wrong in the brain and the answer lies in 'fixing' the thing that has gone wrong – often with medication. |
