Have our government agencies given any though about the coming wave of PTSD

[RandySF]

that our health care workers will be expeiencing when this clusterfuck finally dies down?

1. The goat rodeo we have for a government obviously hasn't given any thought

to anything other than making sure His Lardship's ego is satisfied.

2. Considering how much attention it gets

with our military folks I’m going with absolutely not.

3. It will be more than that.

PTSD will be a problem for many other people as well. Our children will go through hell for years to come.

4. Absolutely not

They consistently deny mental health is a factor of concern in our country! Always has been this way. Obama fought hard to get mental health parity, but it's nowhere close. $50 copays for "specialist" treatment & very limited visits.

You can't stack mental health up on a shelf & sell it, so...

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

And, obviously, the HEALTH of our society is not a concern for R's either because workers are disposable.

6. PTSD is a terrible thing

I live with it and it sucks. It saddens me to think of all the people who will struggle with it in the future.
My heart goes out to them.

Hanging out at home all the time I get trapped in my head. It can get scary for sure.

8. Repressed memories

tend to rise up in times of stress. Best of luck my friends.

5. With Trump in charge?

Maybe some mid level management in some department enough removed from the Trump appointed (or lack of) people might have something. But the Trump people probably haven't planned anything

7. They don't care about anyone dying so why would they care about that or anyone else who

Will get ptsd, there will be plenty of others.

9. PTSD is also high in people who survive being on ventilators.

That's especially true in those COVID patients on ventilators for a week or two, not just a few hours.
