PTS-Talk

On Friday the group presented PTS-Talk, which is a support website that can help people suffering from PTSD. It allows people who are suffering to find support and explain their experiences through different forms made specifically for what they are dealing with.

I loveeeeee this topic because I know someone in the marine corps, I have a cousin who served in the military, and my grandfather was a military veteran. This project was well put together and had a lot of thought put into it. They each had a personal connection to this topic which made it very genuine and had a deep emotional impact.

This could possibly become a real thing if they want to take it that far because most people who do have PTSD do not like admitting to it or talking about it to others and they struggle. Others do not even know that they have PTSD.

Some problems with this would obviously be internet trolls creating fake profiles and trolling people who are trying to get help so if this was to become a real thing they would have to figure out how to reduce the possibility. Overall this project was amazing and I hope they continue to spread this idea.
