Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Itβs kinda strange in that they simplified it almost...too much? Like to where a good chunk of the population could identify with it. Itβs odd that they didnβt mention emotional or normal flashbacks at all, but overall a nice video!!
Where are the flashbacks?
My much older brother, (and through no fault of his own, parents favorite) once said to me, in my teen years, "Your eyes go blank and I can tell that you go somewhere else in your mind, sometimes, when people are talking to you, just like Dad does."
We didn't understand such things back in the old days, but Dad was very damaged by too much combat and death in WWII. He damaged me, also.
He didn't mean to, he was a victim, just as I was. God bless your memory, Dad, and I forgive you, so maybe others can forgive me.
Love this. They couldβve mentioned more about disassociation and flashbacks.
I've been lurking because I didn't feel like I truly belong here. Like I didn't suffer enough. But this video definitely put things in perspective.. I do belong here ._.
Didnβt really like this video. Oversimplified the symptoms a lot into black and white. Took the complex out of complex ptsd.
Weird how I used to always tell people that sometimes I donβt want to be alive anymore but I wasnβt suicidal and that was one of the things mentioned in the video. That thought process never made sense to even me because it was something like, βI really want to die but I want someone else to do it.β
Wow this describes me exactly. Thank you for sharing.
Wow...I totally feel the little dude in the hiding under the rock animation ....
