John Swanepoel and I discuss post traumatic stress and depression.

After spending years in the British Armed Forces, John has experienced the feelings of coming out of an institution where perfection and reliability is often the highest value.  Coming out of that, left him feeling lost and not understanding of that feeling.

He realises that kindness is a value and action that he wasn't used to.

And he speaks of how he got over this.

Trauma is what the individual really feels applies to them.  Nobody can say that 'trauma didn't happen'.  

Giving birth is often associated with a trauma for the woman, for the partner even and sometimes for the support staff.  

We discuss some tips about how to deal with trauma and depression.
