More PTSD BS from so called "research"

When will they ever learn? A bomb blast IS A TRAUMATIC EVENT!

It causes damaged to brains. PTSD is caused by traumatic events, like a bomb blast.

Having TBI and PTSD does not mean they go hand in hand but were both caused by the same event!

More wasted money for something that should have been common sense.

I had TBI when I was very young and they didn't know what head trauma really did. I can tell you that it screwed up my speech and caused me to be terrified of heights into adulthood. The event did not cause PTSD in me but it did a lot of damage to my brain. (Yes I know my friends are chuckling over that one.)

A human body will suffer from a bomb blast and the event itself is traumatic. Everyone with TBI will not have PTSD any more than those with PTSD will have TBI. Two different results from the same event do not equal anything.
