I know how to treat PTSD. It doesn’t involve anything fancy.

Open the bible, read it, turn your heart over to Jesus, and ask him to take up your burdens. It works 100% of the time.

As for myself, I’m a vet of 3 tours. I don’t have PTSD. Though I still shed a tear for my brothers in arms north and south of the border.

Some veterans do have real PTSD. Most do not, but VA shrinks have been telling them they do for the last 40 years. What they have is called “life” and dealing with life and moving on. How many WW2 vets came back and immediately shrinks started telling them if they had killed anyone or witnessed anything bad they must have mental problems. Hardly any. These men had brass balls, came back to the states, raised their family, moved on with their lives, and built America. Vietnam vets came home as “baby killers” and were told by draft-dodging shrinks that something was wrong with them. Instead of telling them to be proud of their service they were told how to cope with the “shame” of doing something that didn’t really want to do. The process is being repeated again in the latest banana republic wars. And I agree 100% with taking your problems to the Lord. He is the cure for everything.
