PTSD isn’t just flashbacks. while a lot of movies, books, games etc equate post traumatic stress disorder to having extremely vivid flashbacks in which one thinks the trauma is happening again, this is not the only symptom of PTSD, nor is it a requirement for having the disorder.

other symptoms of PTSD include

problems sleeping

nightmares 

hypervigilance (constantly checking surroundings for safety, looking for any possible threat)

being easily startled

being emotionally numb or not experiencing joy

seeing the world as a terrible place

memory loss 

trouble relating to others

physiological or strong emotional reactions to reminders of trauma 

intrusive thoughts about the trauma

(full list of criteria here)

flashbacks are not the be all and end all of PTSD. it’s a much more complex disorder than it’s portrayed in a lot of media, nor is it military exclusive. i hope this post can at least help educate some people beyond the incomplete and in some cases outright wrong information that a lot of people have.

Take a shower, wash off the day. Drink a glass of water. Make the room dark. Lie down and close your eyes. Notice the silence. Notice your heart. Still beating. Still fighting. You made it, after all. You made it, another day. And you can make it one more. You’re doing just fine.

“Hush, Shh. We are not in safe ground to discuss such matters. Eyes– Ears Everywhere.”

“When has that ever stopped me, Barda?” 

There’s a moment of contemplation prior to the curt nod that Scott makes. “I’ll lay low for a few days, but I’m not giving up. Neither can you, Barda.”

Big Barda & Mister Miracle - Evan Bryce

Big Barda x Mr. Miracle. *_*

Sigh, this is grossly cute and you gotta deal with it. This couple is awesome. I always just wanted them to be happy. (Like with most good couples though, DC seems to want the opposite.) 

Sorry for my anime, but not for my feels.
