PTSD for men can mostly been seen in abuse and death of a loved one as they do not know how to truly feel at times like during the war, they cannot stop mourn and pray because they cant stop fighting, leading to a never ending guilt that might linger forever.

PTSD tends to stem as seen and mentioned many times in reality and fiction it seems to stem most from war as people are forced to kill people who had families or maybe even begged for mercy but they had no choice as the others were the enemy and they were the executioner, leading to guilt and fear that one day they will suffer the same fate that they had put that person through.

As explained in this article another way to help with PTSD is medications even though not the best way as having to talk with someone could have a better impact medications will help calm it down.

The thesis of my article "War & Military Mental Health: The US Psychiatric Response in the 20th Century" is about how the men of war were treated at first after the war, to later in time when it was figured out the war had left a long term disorder called PTSD

After the war the men had gone back home with their symptoms were referred to "as cowards lacking moral fiber"(Pg. 2). Most men in the war had gotten PTSD due to "Witnessing acts of warfare, including killing, torture, and widespread devastation"(Pg. 2). At first before PTSD was even classified as such it was referred as shell shock and its main symptoms were "stuttering, crying, trembling, paralysis" (Pg. 5).
