My dad served in WWII but he never spoke about it. I've discovered that so many other people won't talk about their experiences during the war to their families - but will open up to me, a stranger. Why is this?
During the War' Post Traumatic Stress' didn't have a name, I am guessing it was still 'shell shock.'
Talking about traumatic experiences has a hugely beneficial effect on us, both physically and mentally, helping us come to terms with what went on as well as boosting boosts our immune in four different ways.
How can we persuade our loved ones to talk about the past? Any ideas?????
