      Today was another day with air raid sirens & very painful for me and generally #Cyprus. My mental health is doing OK, but it's wild to think that every July & August I get weird feelings no matter where I am in the world. Nation-wide PTSD hurts individuals too. Love to all Cyps.pic.twitter.com/Msqqdti1xs

      Great point on PTSD. There is academic literature on that. Happy to share w/ you. Actually, you'll probly understand more of it than I ever would. Incidentally, I visited this open-air exhibition today. Cypriot #women never got chance to talk openly. A suffocating thought.pic.twitter.com/GLRigEwp1h

      We so ought to have an exhibition, a huge one, in Cyprus...a big comprehensive encompassing one...with discussions & panels & a few guest speakers but mostly focusing on Cypriot women, their traumas refering back to Olivia & her point about PTSD on the island. Wishful thinking?

      It's not my point, I totally got it from reading about Cyprus. To be clear, I actually had PTSD and had treatment for it on the NHS for domestic violence in the UK (and I am OK now).

      But as a scientist, I guess with the privileged knowledge and access to people I have, I started thinking about the causes of PTSD, who is vulnerable to it and why — because it really is very specific types of people (how society treats us etc.) who end up getting it.

      I read up about Cyprus being seen by some academics as an island of people with PTSD. Since after the wars, etc., mental health was not taken into account and out perception of it is not a healthy one (e.g., many still believe you can think your way out of it).

          Work like this, although it's got very dated wording (sorry, Emi) and only talks about G/Cs: https://24h.com.cy/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/erevna1.pdf …

          These thoughts I had helped me put into perspective why my schooling was the way it was in Cyprus and why some teachers esp. in my middle school were so physically and otherwise abusive.

          Also to be 100% clear: The idea of a nationwide PTSD is definitely not 100% mine, but I do talk about it using these terms. I think it's a zeitgeist that most people I speak to certainly are happy with this phrasing though — a positive message since accepting is the 1st step.
