PTSD Mythology
Here is an archive mainly of repurposed homework writings I have done on mental health reform. The title is provocative - and intentionally so.
This collection challenges conventional wisdom about PTSD, trauma, and mental health treatment. Through research, advocacy, and lived experience, these writings explore:
- Alternative perspectives on trauma and healing - Critiques of current mental health systems - Research on underrecognized conditions - Advocacy for better treatment approaches - The intersection of mental health and social justice
The goal isn't to dismiss the reality of trauma or the need for mental health support, but to question assumptions, explore alternatives, and advocate for more effective, compassionate approaches to healing.
