Thank you.
You talked about the fact that anybody is susceptible to post traumatic stress disorder. I'm wondering if there are existing preconditions that make someone more susceptible. For example, I know from my time on a police service board dealing with disciplinary action that quite often the event that puts officers in a disciplinary hearing was an extreme response to a very normal situation on the job, but it was the previous stress that they had encountered away from the police force, such as a divorce or a death in the family, that made them susceptible or set a pattern that seemed to be occurring.
Has work been done to take a look at people in the first responder community who may be in a position where they would become more susceptible more quickly to post-traumatic stress disorder?
