This video outlines some of the causes, signs and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD, when gone untreated, can lead to such extremes as suicide. If you, or someone you love, suffer from PTSD, or suspected PTSD, please see a counselor. There are many on-line sites that can be researched for further information.

The end message is one of hope. Those suffering from PTSD come from a variety of causes, including rape, combat, disasters – both natural and man made, and more. The music is Ghosts, by Dan Fogelberg: Sometimes in the night I feel it Near as my next breath and yet, untouchable Silently the past comes stealing Like the taste of some forbidden sweet. Along the walls; in shadowed rafters Moving like a thought through haunted atmospheres Muted cries and echoed laughter Banished dreams that never sank in sleep. Lost in love and Found in reason Questions that the mind can find no answers for Ghostly eyes Conspire treason As they gather just outside the door…. Every ghost that calls upon us Brings another measure in the mystery Death is there To keep us honest And constantly remind us we are free. Down the ancient corridors And through the gates of time Run the ghosts of days …

Go for EMDR treatment mate. Eye Movement Desensitivity Reprogramming. I have had it and it really makes a difference. I was heavily Hypervigilent when I got the treatment and it worked and brought it me down straight away. Ask your doctor for it. Good luck!

If you are military then they are obligated to help you with this. If they won’t help, then contact a professional specializing in PTSD and see what they suggest to help you along. You need to find a way to let out your emotions and, at a minimum, talk to a friend about what you are going through. If you want to detail anything, please feel free to message me privately. Remember, you’re not alone

After 21yrs of front line policing, I have now developed PTSD finally following the gruesome death/murder of a colleague in my presence. Thankyou very much for the video, the song and most of all the comments. It meant an awful lot the words, ‘you are not alone’, as I feel very alone on duty as no-one seems to understand (usually they are the type who have done very little in their service and not confronted very much in the way of bad guys). Thanks mate!!!
