Abstract

Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a psychological condition that became widely discussed after soldiers returned home from the Vietnam War complaining of intrusive thoughts or images, avoidant behaviors, and arousal disturbances, the hallmark characteristics of PTSD. Some might say that PTSD is a failure of time to heal all wounds. In this article, Beall presents a select listing of Internet resources useful for those seeking information on PTSD. Most are geared toward a professional audience; a few are directed toward people with PTSD.
