In this blog I will be covering about our research on PTSD. Throughout our project our roup has been extensively reading about PTSD, and it's effects.
PTSD is formally called post traumatic stress disorder and is a disorder in which a person has difficulty recovering after experiencing something terrifying.
Our film is about a Afghanistan veteran, meaning he is part of the 11% of veterans with the disorder.
Symptoms of PTSD include
-intrusive memories (flashbacks) that are usually distressful and unwanted
-Avoidance, refusing to speak of events that traumatize the individual.
- Negative changes in emotional and physical state
- and much more\
This is only a summary of the information we gathered on the disorder. With all this research conducted, we hope to accurately and effectively represent the disorder.
