RE: Amtrak Derailment and How to Help Ease PTSD Before it Sets in
I'm so sorry to hear this has affected you so much. I would of course feel the same way. You're the second Steemian I follow that was close to this horrible accident. @ilovedietcoke also wrote about this. I suffer from PTSD so I'm glad to see another proponent out there trying to help those who might suffer. Sorry to hear about your son and can only imagine how that impacted YOU! Glad he seems to have made a pretty good recovery though. That's really interesting about the use of non violent video games within 4 hours being helpful. I always found them to help me feel better of course I didn't have or know that would help after my tragic events. That's some very good info. You got my 100% upvote here & resteem. Take care during this difficult time & I am glad to know you and your are safe at this time. Definitely makes you think twice about the little things we all sometimes take for granted.
It's shocking how many people suffer from PTSD. I sometimes think it's because the internet has brought people together to communicate so much but sometimes I wonder if it's more than that...
Thank you hun <3 I hope you have a peaceful and Merry Christmas :)
I'd have to say there's probably a lot of hidden combat related PTSD. Anyway, it's good people have the internet because that's the only way some will even discuss it.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU as well =)
