#PTSD isn't just flashbacks

[Neville Southall @NevilleSouthall]

There are quite a few myths surrounding #PTSD
1) Only people who are weak get PTSD
It’s not really clear why some people get PTSD and others don’t, but it is definitely not a sign of weakness

[Neville Southall @NevilleSouthall]

1 in 5 firefighters
1 in 3 car crash survivors
1 in 2 female rape victims
2 in 3 prisoners of war https://t.co/o0hn7Tq31C

1 in 2 people experience trauma at some point in their lives, around 20% of these will go on to develop #PTSD

Post traumatic stress disorder is a normal reaction to extreme trauma, just like bleeding is a normal reaction to getting stabbed

@strikeoutss @NevilleSouthall @HopeVirgo @heads_together @beurownlight @CerianJenkins @DiscombobBrain @TheYorkMind @TimetoChange @Rethink_ I am so happy it worked, I will be starting EMDR soon, hopefully it works for me too, you're amazing!

[PTSD And Me @PtsdMe]

Don’t compare your recovery to someone else’s.

Recovery is a rollercoaster. It has its ups and downs. And everyone heals differently.

That’s okay.

You’re doing great.

@RoxanneSSukhan I don't object, it's just an infographic, more emphasis on the changes that occur in the brain due to PTSD rather the name or whatever we want to refer to it as :)
