Sebastian Junger Quotes About Trauma

Quotes about: Trauma

• The negative effects of combat were nightmares, and I'd get jumpy around certain noises and stuff, but you'd have that after a car accident or a bad divorce. Life's filled with trauma. You don't need to go to war to find it it's going to find you. We all deal with it, and the effects go away after awhile. At least they did for me.

  War, Divorce, Car

  "Restrepo co-directors Sebastian Junger and Tim Hetherington". Interview with Christopher Kompanek and Chris Kompanek, film.avclub.com. June 25, 2010.

• If you get an infection, you get a fever; the fever is your body dealing with the infection. If you get traumatized, your mind and your brain have a reaction to that trauma. If you're not dreaming about it, something's probably wrong.

  Sebastian Junger

  Dream, Mind, Brain

• Often people who live through the trauma are nostalgic when it's over. When I went back to Bosnia 20 years after the brutal civil war, even people who had been badly wounded told me they missed those times. They were missing their more courageous selves.
