Content: Military personnel are prone to developing secondary PTSD. Those who may experience secondary PTSD are those people who suffer emotionally through exposure to a traumatized person. Families and friends of some military veterans are one such group, as they have to deal both with the trauma their loved one went through, and the resultant stress of living with the person and trying to help. People who come into contact with PTSD sufferers through their work can also develop secondary trauma as a result. These include nurses, doctors and psychiatric personnel, who help the traumatized people after the event, and who may, over time, be exposed to many different people with PTSD. Is Amazon actually giving you the best price? This little known plugin reveals the answer. Shared characteristics between secondary PTSD and PTSD include increased alertness and jumpiness, along with nightmares and an increased tendency to avoid social situations. Like people who suffer from PTSD, those with secondary PTSD may feel less attached to their loved ones, and experience a reduced sense of purpose. As people with secondary PTSD have perhaps had their view of life and the ability of other people to inflict pain changed for the worse, they may also become judgmental and disillusioned, and experience anger at the world and the people in it.
