Why PTSD Can Surface Abruptly Decades After a Traumatic Event - Curtis Solomon

PTSD can often surface decades after a traumatic event, which begs the question: why? Co-Founder and Executive Director of Sentinel Institute, Curtis Solomon, says it’s because people tend to bury trauma, and that trauma often rears its head in the silence of retirement or a break from work. Curtis is the executive director of the Biblical Counseling Coalition and a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. He’s seen plenty of PTSD in America’s warriors, and he has studied this particular disorder from a Biblical perspective for years. What are some examples of extreme trauma? Are we being exposed to trauma at higher rates than ever before because of our exposure to social media? Curtis defines the disorienting impact that trauma can have, and how it can radically upend every belief anyone has had previously.

TAKEAWAYS

Jesus went through the worst trauma any human can ever experience

No two people experience trauma the same way even if facing similar situations

Point people to Jesus and take your cares to Him

Because Jesus was human and He survived extreme trauma, He does understand what you’re going through
