Darren Jones throw away remark about “we’ve all got PTSD follow Liz Truss’ Budget” is a complete and utter insult to those who live with the daily consequences of really having PTSD.

No @darrenpjones, we don't all have PTSD from Liz Truss. Some people do have PTSD and it's can be an utterly debilitating, life-altering and literally nightmarish condition which deserves greater consideration than lazy stigma to make cheap political points.
"I think we all have PTSD from Liz Truss." Chief Secretary to the Treasury @darrenpjones stresses the it's normal for markets to respond after they reacted badly to Labour's first budget. trib.al/Rx0iR33 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

Reading Melissa Schuman’s court documents and I note that she has a diagnosis of PTSD. I’m a trauma specialist. Through this thread, I’ll refer to the DSM-5 - the manual that psychiatrists use to diagnose PTSD. To be diagnosed, there must be an element of avoidance (Criterion C)

It’s the same with moving to the same city, and close neighbourhood, of your rapist. If it was a necessity, you’d expect an increase in symptoms and inability to function. I’m not saying that MS doesn’t have PTSD, but there is enough here to question who or what caused the trauma

Where do I begin with this? #melissaschumanisaliar is now accusing Nick of grooming. Grooming is “when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection so they can manipulate, exploit and abuse them”. In MS’s very own blog, she makes no mention of this.

the accusation of grooming -the first time she has publicly accused Nick of grooming - is yet another inconsistency in her story that is already full of inconsistencies. Is she now claiming grooming because Nick has evidence that MS and Daddy Schuman groomed Shay? Actual grooming

that fits within the definition of grooming. I imagine that if MS claims that Nick groomed her, it casts doubt on his claims that he is the victim here. However, she will have to show evidence that grooming took place and I look forward to seeing this. #IStandWithNickCarter

The power of the #BSBArmy - another day, another BSB trend! We will not be cancelled! I’m listening to #AVeryBackstreetChristmas on repeat and admiring the beautiful vocals on this album. #IStandWithNickCarter

forbes.com/sites/karlynborys… An interesting read. 2-10% of rape cases each year are false. That’s 150-750 cases each year in which the life of the accused is ruined. This has to stop. Men have mental health too #hissidetoo #IStandWithNickCarter
