PTSD UK is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation based in Scotland, which aims to raise awareness of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder in the UK. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has existed for centuries, under many different names, including ‘shell shock’ during WWI, ‘war neurosis’ during WWII; and ‘combat stress reaction’ during the Vietnam War. The term Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) was first introduced in the 1980s. The symptoms of PTSD aren’t easy to live with, and when someone you care about suffers from PTSD it affects you too, as the changes in your loved one can be drastic. It can be a stressful situation, leaving you feeling overwhelmed and confused; but it is important to remember to take care of yourself, while you care for someone with PTSD. The PTSD UK vision is that everyone experiencing PTSD gets both support, understanding and respect, and their mission is to provide support and information for anyone experiencing PTSD. They campaign to improve services, raise awareness and promote understanding of the condition and treatments available. Their website contains lots of useful information about PTSD and its treatment, and also how and where to access help.
