8 months agoFollow me @historyinmemes for more!! The earliest references to what we now recognize as PTSD can be found in ancient texts. For example, the tale of Gilgamesh, a Mesopotamian epic dating back to around 2100 BC, describes the psychological impact of war on the titular character, which some interpret as PTSD. Similarly, the Bible, in Deuteronomy 20:1-9, provides instructions for managing soldiers who are fearful or disheartened before battle, which could be seen as an early form of PTSD management. In the 4th century BC, Hippocrates described frightening battle dreams, which can be interpreted as symptoms of PTSD. The Greek historian Herodotus, in the 5th century BC, analyzed the paranoia and hallucinations of soldiers who fought the Battle of Marathon, providing one of the earliest descriptions of what we now understand as PTSD. The term “nostalgia” was coined in the late 17th century by Swiss physician Johannes Hofer to describe Swiss soldiers who suffered from despair and homesickness, as well as classic PTSD symptoms like sleeplessness and anxiety. In the 19th century, the term “railway spine” was used to describe the psychological impact of railway accidents, which included symptoms similar to PTSD. The American Civil War (1861-1865) and the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871) marked the start of formal medical attempts to address the problems of military veterans exposed to combat. The term “shell shock” emerged during World War I to describe the psychological impact of trench warfare and artillery bombardments. This term was later replaced by “combat fatigue” during World War II. These terms reflected the belief that the conditions were related to long deployments and were not necessarily permanent. In 1980, the American Psychiatric Association added PTSD to the third edition of its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-III), marking a significant milestone in the recognition and treatment of trauma-related disorders. The establishment of the PTSD diagnosis has helped in the scientific study of the condition and in developing evidence-based methods to treat it.

a year agoThe haunting sound that Roman soldiers would have heard from their Celtic enemies before battle was produced by the Celtic Carnyx. This ancient wind instrument was used by the Celts during the period from 300 B.C. to 200 A.D. According to the Greek historian Polybius, the Carnyx was employed in warfare to rouse troops to battle and to strike fear into the hearts of their opponents. Due to its significant height, the instrument’s sounds could carry over the heads of those engaged in battles or ceremonies. [By: @abrahamcupeiro] Follow me @historyinmemes for more!!
