RE: Amtrak Derailment and How to Help Ease PTSD Before it Sets in

in #psychology7 years ago

good you thought of the right decision of not taking the train with your kids in going to your destination. happy to hear that you are safe. heard on the news that some people died and many others injured. it saddens me that this happens during this time of the season and surely a traumatic experience on the victims of this freak accident. also heard from the news that this is negligence on the part of amtrak.

Sort:  

Several died, every person in the train was injured in some way and all needed medical attention. There are so many officials and investigators involved that they do not truly know. I've heard something on the tracks, I've heard from two in the hospital say they felt an instability under their feet for one minute before the derailment... Nobody knows yet...

I only heard of this last night because am avoiding a lot of news recently but this is awful. I am sorry that things like this happen to good people right before and during the Holidays. There have been a few weird things (disasters) and weird things with not solid explanations the last few days........anyways, glad you are safe and sound.
b.a.

I go on regular news fasts, too.

You know what the news said? There's been so many disasters lately that people have "giving fatigue." There are so many things wrong in that sentence.
