PTSD is a terrible thing to suffer. No one will believe it until they have suffered it. Pierre Janet was the first psychiatrist to recognise this malady as Post Traumatic Distress Syndrome during the Great War. Commonly known as shell shock. Hundreds of soldiers were executed by their own officers for cowardice - officers who had never had a bullet fired at them and therefore never understood the problem. This attitude pervades our society today as corporations manipulate over worked employees with zero regard to health and safety. I suffered this degradation of humanity and was compensated with nothing. To this day, 7 years later I suffer panic attacks. Nightmares and flashbacks of my trauma haunt me to this day and affect my waking life. This malady I used to describe the trauma of Eternal, who will in a split second disconnect and become confused.
