Episode 95: PTSD

PTSD. CrossFit. Community. PTSD has been around for a long time. Though it’s usually associated with our soldiers who have been scared from the brutal reality of combat, PTSD exists in everyday people who have also suffered. Dating back to WW2, “Shell Shock” was a term used and also looked down upon. Fast forward 70 years things have changed and awareness has been made, but we are light years behind where we should be when treating our men and women coming back from combat zones. Today we talk about how to cope with PTSD and how certain things can create a safety net around those who struggle with it. If you’re struggling with things, do NOT hesitate to reach out to us or any of the free resources out there. VetWOD does an amazing job at creating awareness and giving people direction.
