The British Journal of Psychiatry, 1992•cambridge.orgThis review describes the history of PTSD in relation to military psychiatry, physiology, and
crisis theory. It appears that the consequences of psychic trauma are often underestimated
and mental health services often fail to provide adequate care. PTSD may be explained as
an initially adequate reaction to danger, which becomes pathological if it does not disappear
after the danger is gone. The authors argue in favour of better psychiatric intervention after
traumatic events and better care for trauma victims.
