It seems more prevalent now because we have billions more people on the planet so the number of people affected by ptsd is higher and we have a global instantaneous communication system that can spread information - and disinformation - in seconds.

Reply to Has PTSD due to trauma and/or violence affected humans for centuries or is this a more recent phenomenon? Have there always been long-term effects when an individual experiences trauma and/or violence? by shooflydont
