PTSD never goes away. You just live with it. I know.

That's right, wallace.
May you have even a brief respite from whatever it is that you suffer from!

Lots of us have to live with PTSD.
Fighto!
You don't just "move on" from being the victim of a mass terrorist attack. The mental (and in many cases physical) damage often remains for life.
These thousands of victims deserve every bit of support and sympathy they can get. As do all sufferers of PTSD.

They don’t call it terror for nothing. I’m just glad there hasn’t been another incident like that.

Other people suffering from PTSD has nothing to do with what happened in Kasumigaseki or the Government’s slow reaction to it, which is a significant part of the article. And fighto! - well said

worked in Kamiyacho (hibiya line) back then , but was off on the day that it happened ... turned on the TV and all the live reports coming on ....... these were horrifically sadistic attacks..... RIP to all the victims and all the help and strength the survivors still need and should be able to get .

Trash cans are still gone from train stations, yet the living victims from this attack are told to ‘move on’.

It was terrible, but there are many others who have PTSD from one thing or another, but we don't have anyone to blame, a support group, or public sympathy. JT gonna write us an article too?

In some cases it 'stays' in the 'back of the head' (conscious) until something from the 'outside' sets it off and it resurfaces. Then when it does, you need to get help, pronto. I know that myself.

I suppose you think that private charity will solve everything?
