Reflection for 22–29 June 2020 The Only Cure For Humanity’s PTSD Is the Atonement.

We all have it!

Please invite the Holy Spirit for translation. Thank you.

Did you know that everyone has PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder?

Yep, you too.

There are things that happen when we have PTSD.

We over-react. We are extreme in any variety of ways.

We act out of proportion to the circumstance that we are faced with.

How we act will be different for each individual.

We might clam up and go within, shrinking to a ball of mush.

We might not do very well in social gatherings, even when there is no perceived threat by others in attendance.

We might strike out hard, fierce, and very likely, not at the true source of our irritation.

We might binge on our favorite “chemical of choice” which can embrace any kind of addiction from chocolate to sex; even, literally beating your head against a wall.
