The experiences that he was surrounded with during his service in World War II are so horrific that it still has a major effect on his life. Vonnegut never directly states that he suffers from PTSD but by his description of his everyday struggles, we see the effects that war has truly had on his mental state. ]]> 2019-03-13 16:18:58 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340958617 elizabethc21863 https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340958980 2019-03-13 16:19:38 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340958980 elizabethc21863 https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340959540 Carlos Huerta, had been diagnosed in 2005 but refused to accept it, experienced chest-tightening and panic one night. He thought he was dying and began pacing around the room but stuck it out for the night. When he woke up, again he felt the same way and feared having a heart attack, but was cleared of any heart problems when he went to the doctor. He feared being seen as broken by other in the army so he refused to seek help. After he continuously felt panicky he knew he needed to get help and accepted it.]]> 2019-03-13 16:20:36 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340959540 hollyo21525 https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340962998 2019-03-13 16:27:05 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/340962998 elizabethc21863 https://padlet.com/elizabethc21863/2nxsn1iw1qd7/wish/341458329 https://www.army.mil/article/78562/leaving_the_battlefield_soldier_shares_story_of_ptsd
