Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

What exactly is Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder? Thousands of courageous men and women risk their lives in combat or in other dangerous professions. But few of us understand the private inner battle they bring home. Join our roundtable discussion with two veterans as we begin to talk about Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder and its real-life effects on people, as well as its definitions and common symptoms.

Everyone expects to leave the war “over there.” But many warriors coming home soon discover the war comes home with them—inside.

There are things that men and women experience in war that they never forget: the sights, the smells, and the sounds.

Before a deployment, all military personnel are trained in “self-aid and buddy care.”

Experiencing the horrible trauma of war impacts the heart and soul of the warrior.

Everyone who faces the trauma of war (or any trauma for that matter) must deal with it in some way.

In combat, military men and women are trained to stuff pain, grief, guilt, and loss inside so that they can accomplish the mission.

Men and women returning from deployments need someone to talk to about what they experienced “over there.”

War changes everyone who goes to war. Some of the changes are for the good, but some are not.

Many combat veterans feel burdened by guilt. They question if they can ever be forgiven for things they did or didn’t do, or for just making it home when so many others didn’t.

Children of servicemen and women are vulnerable to the ill effects of PTSD.
