POST DRAMATIC STRESS
DISORDER ON VETERANS
By: Mary Becker
 The Effects of fireworks on post
dramatic stress disorder
 The Fourth of July Holiday is a
common day for veterans to feel symptoms
of post dramatic stress disorder
• also known as PTSD.
• According to Mayo Clinic Staff,
PTSD is a condition of
persistent mental and emotional
stress that occurs as a result of
injury or severe psychological
shock (Post-Dramatic Stress
disorder definition, April 15,
2014-Mayo Clinic Staff).
PTSD
 The three points that
cover PTSD affecting
veterans are;
• how loud sounds trigger
the disorder,
• crowds create paranoia,
• and how the Fourth of
July affects veterans as
a whole.
 Loud sounds trigger the disorder because
of the mental state that PTSD puts a person in.
 This disorder is interesting to study, and
shows a group of people how to understand
PTSD affecting veterans.
 The Fourth of July comes to mind,
because when the fireworks go off veterans
can have a hard time dealing with it.
 There are events it could remind them off.
Such as a gunshot, bomb blowing up, a plane
taking fire, or a tank preparing to fire.
 These are all important and veterans face
these episodes all the time.
LOUD SOUNDS TRIGGER
IT
 Since PTSD is mental state
psychologists have to figure out why the
problem is getting so much worse.
 According to PTSD in Today’s War
Veterans: The Road to Recovery,
Richard Currey states: “A stunning
public health issue of PTSD in today's
war veterans is imminent.
 Mental health professionals must
prepare for the tough road ahead (Vol.
7 NO. 4 P.13, Social Work Today).”
TODAY’S WAR
VETERANS
 There are so many war veterans getting
PTSD after they are back from war.
 Those who receive medical discharge can
sometimes get the disorder worse.
 Medical discharge is when a veteran is
sent home from war because of health
problem, injury, or severe damage to
something.
 These happen a lot due to explosions, and
other events that take place in war.
 Veterans, whom get sent home with
medical discharge, usually never go back into
the military or war. PTSD comes in spurts, but
the veterans learn to deal with it.
 Another point relating back to
holidays such as the Fourth of July,
veterans can get anxious.
 The reason some veterans can get
so anxious is how large crowds create
paranoia.
 Paranoia is the suspicions or
distrust of those around a person.
 This is cause by a mental state in
the brain, and can be triggered by
PTSD sometimes.
CROWDS CREATE
PARANOIA
 It is important for veterans to be with their
families in a state where they feel safe.
 If the veteran does not feel safe in a large
crowd, then that environment would be harmful
to the veteran.
 The reason that veterans have such a hard
time with paranoia is because crowds create
disorientation with people.
 The disorientation is caused by the
overwhelming about of families around.
 Since PTSD is completely a mental state
cause by an injury, then large crowds would
create some problems.
 Lastly, the Fourth of July affects veterans as a
whole because of the celebration of Independence.
 On this holiday is made to be that veterans are
heroes, but in reality they do not feel like veterans.
 This is because the veterans feel targeted, and
fear for the symptoms of PTSD to reoccur on this
holiday.
 According to Leade Gore, writing about
Vietnam War Veteran-Everett Carter of Huntsville
said: “"I never forget it because some kids in the
neighborhood fired off some firecrackers and
fireworks late in the afternoon, and it brought it all
back," Carter said. "I actually ended up trying to get
underneath the couch.
 Until I realized I was at home and everything
was OK (Website:Author: Leada Gore)."
 This day is meant to celebrate all the veterans,
and not bring them down. It is hard to know what will
cause PTSD, and how long it will last.
FOURTH OF JULY AFFECTS
 Some veterans come home from war and do
not get signs until late. Something in the brain has to
trigger PTSD.
 This is where the community comes together,
and needs to help these veterans feel safe on such
a holiday.
 Every Psychological theory talks about how
everything affects the brain, and our thought
process.
 It is important to not have a mental block, and
PTSD always creates a mental block for veterans.
 Veterans need to be able to feel safe, and
heroic on the Fourth of July. Although many
veterans have PTSD, only some it can cause real
harm on the Fourth of July
 Post dramatic stress disorder is a very
serious problem with veterans.
 It is getting worse as time goes on,
because many do not know how to deal with
stress.
 PTSD is caused by loud sounds triggering
the disorder, crowds creating paranoia, and the
affects the Fourth of July has on veterans.
 Psychologists will have to study, and
continue to analyze the affects PTSD has on
veterans.

  • 1. POST DRAMATIC STRESS DISORDER ON VETERANS By: Mary Becker
  • 2.  The Effects of fireworks on post dramatic stress disorder  The Fourth of July Holiday is a common day for veterans to feel symptoms of post dramatic stress disorder • also known as PTSD. • According to Mayo Clinic Staff, PTSD is a condition of persistent mental and emotional stress that occurs as a result of injury or severe psychological shock (Post-Dramatic Stress disorder definition, April 15, 2014-Mayo Clinic Staff). PTSD  The three points that cover PTSD affecting veterans are; • how loud sounds trigger the disorder, • crowds create paranoia, • and how the Fourth of July affects veterans as a whole.
  • 3.  Loud sounds trigger the disorder because of the mental state that PTSD puts a person in.  This disorder is interesting to study, and shows a group of people how to understand PTSD affecting veterans.  The Fourth of July comes to mind, because when the fireworks go off veterans can have a hard time dealing with it.  There are events it could remind them off. Such as a gunshot, bomb blowing up, a plane taking fire, or a tank preparing to fire.  These are all important and veterans face these episodes all the time. LOUD SOUNDS TRIGGER IT
  • 4.  Since PTSD is mental state psychologists have to figure out why the problem is getting so much worse.  According to PTSD in Today’s War Veterans: The Road to Recovery, Richard Currey states: “A stunning public health issue of PTSD in today's war veterans is imminent.  Mental health professionals must prepare for the tough road ahead (Vol. 7 NO. 4 P.13, Social Work Today).” TODAY’S WAR VETERANS  There are so many war veterans getting PTSD after they are back from war.  Those who receive medical discharge can sometimes get the disorder worse.  Medical discharge is when a veteran is sent home from war because of health problem, injury, or severe damage to something.  These happen a lot due to explosions, and other events that take place in war.  Veterans, whom get sent home with medical discharge, usually never go back into the military or war. PTSD comes in spurts, but the veterans learn to deal with it.
  • 5.  Another point relating back to holidays such as the Fourth of July, veterans can get anxious.  The reason some veterans can get so anxious is how large crowds create paranoia.  Paranoia is the suspicions or distrust of those around a person.  This is cause by a mental state in the brain, and can be triggered by PTSD sometimes. CROWDS CREATE PARANOIA  It is important for veterans to be with their families in a state where they feel safe.  If the veteran does not feel safe in a large crowd, then that environment would be harmful to the veteran.  The reason that veterans have such a hard time with paranoia is because crowds create disorientation with people.  The disorientation is caused by the overwhelming about of families around.  Since PTSD is completely a mental state cause by an injury, then large crowds would create some problems.
  • 6.  Lastly, the Fourth of July affects veterans as a whole because of the celebration of Independence.  On this holiday is made to be that veterans are heroes, but in reality they do not feel like veterans.  This is because the veterans feel targeted, and fear for the symptoms of PTSD to reoccur on this holiday.  According to Leade Gore, writing about Vietnam War Veteran-Everett Carter of Huntsville said: “"I never forget it because some kids in the neighborhood fired off some firecrackers and fireworks late in the afternoon, and it brought it all back," Carter said. "I actually ended up trying to get underneath the couch.  Until I realized I was at home and everything was OK (Website:Author: Leada Gore)."  This day is meant to celebrate all the veterans, and not bring them down. It is hard to know what will cause PTSD, and how long it will last. FOURTH OF JULY AFFECTS  Some veterans come home from war and do not get signs until late. Something in the brain has to trigger PTSD.  This is where the community comes together, and needs to help these veterans feel safe on such a holiday.  Every Psychological theory talks about how everything affects the brain, and our thought process.  It is important to not have a mental block, and PTSD always creates a mental block for veterans.  Veterans need to be able to feel safe, and heroic on the Fourth of July. Although many veterans have PTSD, only some it can cause real harm on the Fourth of July
