    I don't doubt that people had serious stress reactions. I had panic attacks for months after my office was destroyed on 9/11. But I went right back to work. Most of the targets of the Congressional baseball shooting went back to work as soon as physically able. It's what we do.https://twitter.com/frankthorp/status/1412450305644580873 …

    As someone who has sought therapy to help process the trauma from Jan 6th, this is an important piece about the lingering effects that day has had on a Congressional press corps that continues to go to the site of their trauma to do their jobs: https://www.vice.com/en/article/4avqqn/reporters-survived-capitol-riot-struggling …

        People went back to work *in the Pentagon* the afternoon of 9/11.

        Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Keith Appell

        Exactly. Cops, doctors, lots of professions people pick themselves up & keep going. Maybe more of them should talk to therapists; maybe more should take a little more time off. But soldiering on after a traumatic event is not a brand-new experience.https://twitter.com/KeithAppell/status/1413205469582307337 …

        Many of the 1500 business owners in Minneapolis who saw their businesses attacked during the riots last year had nothing to go back to. Every one of those businesses was someone's livelihood and life dream. https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1413197667899953161 …

        It's incredible to see so many act this way after 1/6, as bad as it was, when 9/11 was still less than 20 years ago! Given how much worse that day was, why aren't we inundated with stories about that lingering trauma? I'd certainly appreciate that more than this.

        Recency bias, I guess, but that's not the whole story. Our culture has changed immensely since 2001.

        Man up, Buddy I worked in a hospital past 8 years. I see trauma and death everyday.

        It's of a piece, I think, with professional athletes recently withdrawing from competition because of mental health issues. I don't doubt that these issues are real. But doesn't it seem like many in this generation are just not equipped to handle stress and pressure?

        Crazy Like Us makes a powerful argument that PTSD is to a substantial extent iatrogenic and a culture bound syndrome. If something terrible happens near your home or work you should look at the offer of trauma counseling the way you'd look at the offer of Rx opiates.

        That book really helped me smugly solidify my suspicion of counseling.
