E33 – 3 Myths about PTSD

from The Ugly Duckling Diary Hosted by Mags Thomson

PTSD is a natural response to trauma, just as bleeding is a normal response to being stabbed. This is a vital point actually. So often we feel like we are going crazy and some people feel a sense of shame for developing PTSD. Would you feel that same sense of shame for bleeding, though? Or breaking a leg? Same difference. This is the result of your experiences, it says nothing about you other than that you are a survivor. I want to reflect on some of the misinformation that floats around about PTSD. - PTSD does not only affect veterans - PTSD isn't just in your head - PTSD is not a sign of weakness
