Although the term “shell-shocked”—the now-archaic term for combat veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)—is not that far in the rearview mirror, the fact that PTSD can materialize out of many other stressful situations other than combat is only recently becoming clear to the general public. Many such instances are described in “Here. Is. Better.”—a new and excellent documentary on the topic.
