I saw a video today about the sniper who had the longest distance kill in the world and he talked about his PTSD. I was wondering why PTSD has such a bad reputation and isn’t discussed more in the public discourse. Is it because the circumstances for example in war changed ? Armies in the antique or Middle Ages were huge and a broad majority of soldiers must have been absolutely traumatized when they returned, so why did no one care about them ?

PTSD had many names earlier in human history. Even if the individual symptomes that get asserted to it had little changes to them. “a warriors pain”, “shellshocked”, “after war bliss” are used synomymes.
