P.T.S.D. PANDEMIC – Coming Soon?
RANDOM THOUGHTS
POST traumatic stress disorder. By definition… happens after the event. You really don’t experience PTSD until the crisis or trauma stabilizes.
If you continuously experience trauma you are in an active crisis cycle. Over and over.
It’s acute stress. It’s tragic. It’s a crisis.
But it’s not POST traumatic stress disorder. Because it is NOT POST anything… it’s an active threat.
You are on high alert because you should be on high alert.
Once things calm down… that’s when life gets real weird.
WARNING -HIGH ALERT
That’s when the triggers start and behaviors become problematic. No one judges a soldier who is jumpy and on high alert in theater.
In an active war zone. It’s once you return and you are “safe”. That’s when shit kicks in.
Now consider this …
Collectively, at a macro-level, PTSD from the pandemic will not kick in until the pandemic “ends”.
At some point in time, there will be a generally accepted “end”.
And that’s when PANDEMIC PTSD will explode on the scene….
We are NOT prepared.
