RE: what did you do to this baby?

it's amazing just how much the treatment of PTSD has changed in the past 15-20 years

Yes! Even the recognition of it and how it presents itself, how it can be complex ptsd .. when I was a kid I just remember hearing about "shell shock" and that it made people crazy. There wasn't any compassion from the outside looking in, culturally.

P.S. I'm always happy to give out my therapist's ART info for anyone who wants it. I even give it to patients I treat who were in car accidents. She works remotely, though I don't know about insurance stuff across states if that's a concern. Sometimes people can get amazing results from just one session.

Sort:  

They called it 'soldier's heart' with Civil War veterans, but yeah nobody understood it. One of my uncles fought in Vietnam, from the sounds of it he likely had PTSD from that but nobody talked about it until he'd been dead for twenty years.

Thank you, I'll keep that in mind. Not optimistic that'd work from this far away but we'll see once the new year is here.
