Synopsis
This podcast explores PTSD...what it is and why it has been so controversial. Mike Williams talks to a veteran and a tsunami survivor, who tell their stories of how they came to be diagnosed with PTSD. But do the public know what this diagnosis really is? Or has it been confused with a broader term for anyone who has suffered a trauma? Is it a useful diagnosis across cultures?
​
Although relatively short, this podcast is informative. It uses clinicians and experts-by-experience to sensitively give a well-balanced overview of the topic. I found that listening helped to legitimise my own experiences and strength my resolve to overcome.
