How does PTSD Happen?

Johns Hopkins relates PTSD as "A form of chronic psychological stress that follows exposure to a traumatic event such as an earthquake, a violent crime (rape, child abuse, murder), torture, an accident, or warfare."

PTSD includes any trauma that happens to a person at any age. How often do we say or hear "Oh, it's not that bad - just handle it?" What if we can't? Do you feel judged? Do you wonder what is the matter with me? Why can other people handle this and I can't - WHAT is the matter with me? I must not be smart enough to figure this out. Then there is the guilt survival, when natural disasters happen, or with veterans, the situations in war.

Where is peace? Often times, the pain is so overwhelming that they would do anything not to have the pain. The conclusion that Manic Depression can be a symptom of PTSD is very real.

Imagine being trapped inside the same clip of a bad movie that runs over and over again each time you experience similar smelsl, colors, touch, tastes, sounds, or environment.

What is the solution?

The solution sounds so simple:

Process the incident to a level where the mind can rationalize the trauma and feelings associated with it. THEN peace and acceptance occur. It takes a lot of commitment. It takes a lot of courage. It is not easy - but the end result of PEACE is well worth the investment.
