This is my entry to the Hive Learners weekly contest.
This PTSD is not an easy one; we might have seen the seen and unseen, and of a truth, the effect of it keeps ringing like a bell in one way or the other, however in which we might find it. Personally, this PTSD might come in various ways in people's lives and it tends to flash back sometimes, but in all, we keep hoping for the best. It might not have happened to my very self so personally, but that does not mean that we do not see it in people who might be around us in one way or the other in life.
Dako sleeps in fear; just a footstep and he is awake and grumbling in great fear. You dare not enter his room for anything. When it comes to that area, he is more than harsh and won't tolerate it from people. What exactly might be the problem? He has been living like that and still continues, but probably a change is needed around him, at least so things would be normal, as he said that his life is a situation. A total situation at large, in which no one exactly would be happy and rejoice over in one way or the other in life. He would lock the doors over and over again and still look as if someone was around in great fear.
This continued, but what exactly was the issue? When he was little, as he told, his father locked him up in a wardrobe, and peeping, he could see how his father was chased inside the house with a gun, and the rest was history to him. This really made an imprint on him and made him to be that way, so that each time he just feels that those set of people are still looking for him and trying to chase him like they did, and of a truth, it has not really been easy for him at all.
One thing in life is that there might be problems, but still, solutions would also come in one way or the other in order to help solve those issues people might be going through.
Another thing is this: LOVE. Love is really an amazing thing and helps in various ways to supersede some things in life. He was able to overcome it by meeting someone he loves, and the nightmares disappeared. Another thing is that we should try always in life to understand that it happened and must not repeat itself in our time. That was an occurrence to others, or still probably we ourselves, but still yet, it does not mean that it must still repeat itself in us all. All we have to do is to focus greatly on the brighter side of life and never relent in whatever in which we are doing while hoping for the best in life by God's grace and mercy.
We keep hoping for the best.
