I find it really frustrating when PTSD gets referred to as a "mental disorder" because that is so "completely off track" it is not funny. And I meant "literally not funny"!!! And it is wronging those who are the sufferers of the problem.

Post traumatic disorder is a PHYSICAL REACTION TO TRAUMA. END OF STORY. THE PSYCHOLOGICAL PROBLEM ARISES BECAUSE THE SUFFERER CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY HAVING A PHYSICAL REACTION. IMAGINE BEING IN A HUGE AMOUNT OF PAIN .. WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO PRESENT A STRAIGHT FACE AND RELAXED DEMEANOUR? GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!! THIS IS WHY WHEN SOMEONE IS HAVING A REACTION and THE OBSERVER CAN'T IDENTIFY WHAT THE CAUSE IS.... THEY REFER IT TO BEING A 'MENTAL CONDITION' because they can't see what is actually happening to the sufferer. WHAT ACTUALLY CAUSES THE 'MENTAL CONDITION' IS FRUSTRATION IN REGARD TO SO CALL EXPERTS WHO PASS COMMENT ON SOMETHING THEY DON'T KNOW NAUGHT ABOUT and the fact that the back of the brain keeps on seeing danger when there is none and sends chemicals flooding into the body like adrenalin and cortisol which cause anxiety and distress. POST TRAUMATIC DISORDER IS IN THE FIRST INSTANCE PHYSICAL not PSYCHOLOGICAL. PTSD BECOMES PSYCHOLOGICAL WHEN THE SUFFERER ENDLESSLY UNWITTINGLY RE-SUFFERS THEIR TRAUMA OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN on a physical level. Psychological reaction when it comes to PTSD is secondary. The next trauma is caused by others passing judgement and putting their two cents worth in when they haven't got a clue. This can cause a secondary physical reaction because you come across so many so called experts you begin to react to the sound and sight of them. And that is no joke!!!
