Treatment for this disorder includes psychotherapy and medication, but can take anywhere from months to years to see any improvement if at all.
Like Terrys father in Stop the Sun many war veterans suffer from Vietnam syndrome also known as post-traumatic stress disorder Research this disorder What are its symptoms How is it treated?
Originally PTS surfaced from the Vietnam War...then it got politically tangled up with automobile accidents, heart attack victims, earth quake victims, 9/11 victims, fist fights, riots, airplane crashes, WWII veterans, and people just having a bad day at work all of sudden were suffering from Post Traumatic Stress disorder, bottom line: it's being abused. The original roots of PTS was from men being drafted against their will; fighting a war in Vietnam against their will; returning home and fighting their own families and friends against their will; being fired or not hired because they were Vietnam Veterans...this COMBINED with the war experience itself created "stress". Since it occurred after their return from Vietnam it was labeled "post". Since war was traumatic, it was labeled "Traumatic". Possibly (since most war vets from the Civil War and World Wars have passed on, and no one knows for sure)...possibly this is why "many" Vietnam "combat" veterans just want to live in the mountains or some place away from society and be left alone.
How do you relieve physical symptoms after a bad or traumatic experience ex headache dizziness stomach aches etc?
It depends on which symptoms you need help with. The short-term symptoms will generally subside on their own as long as no new trauma is experienced. Our natural coping mechanisms will seek to balance out our body and mind over the course of about three days. If it lasts longer than that then see your physician. If it becomes chronic it can lead to a condition called post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD.
Does having a rough childhood cause teens to be more mature than should be?
That depends on what you mean by "rough childhood" and whether or not it generated something like Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. It also depends on if you mean "more mature" in a good (e.g. wiser) or bad (e.g. acting in ways totally inappropriate for their age group but appropriate for an older age group) sense.

Why did so many people die in World War 1 because shell shock?
If you had been in continuous combat in the horrible trench warfare conditions of the time you would understand. The doctors at the time thought ihe disorder was just due to hearing exploding shells and feeling the blast waves pass over the trench nonstop, thus they called it "shell shock". Now it is called Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and is known to be caused by any extreme usually very emotional stress (e.g. combat, rape, assault during a robbery, bad car accidents).
