Hi Mystic, welcome to the forum. Yep, I agree with you whole heartedly... I think he has PTSD also, especially when you have looked at the symptoms and he displays them all... that has veteran = PTSD all over it. I say that, because often veterans often have all the symptoms, not just enough to be ill enough, or classified with PTSD, not so much because of the trauma itself, but because trauma was instilled within every soldier from basic training... that is how the military get a soldier from the civilian stress response of freeze, to the fighting military response of fight & flight.
The ways in which the military invoke and change our responses, also happens to provoke when PTSD does arrive, in the form off all symptoms, and often to the maximum threshold. |
