This week we end the rota by looking at Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
I discuss how it is something we are not always aware of "suffering" from, and it is also something that may go undiagnosed.
I discuss my experiences with trauma and trauma therapy and what I feel I gained from it.
Excellent article on the compulsion to repeat the trauma.

An excellent book covering traumatic stress on mind, body and society.
