First, a word on the Vietnam veteran, because there is a very important study that was published years ago that demonstrated that those veterans that had a history of child maltreatment and went to war had PTSD at higher prevalence than the ones that did not have a history of of child maltreatment. So... Child maltreatment. Yeah.

And maybe they did not develop PTSD, but once again, that point of the accumulation, right, of the stressors at different times. And I'm just mentioning that because you may have a veteran And you're waiting to look at the classical cues where, in fact, it might be more like a voice, like the example that you were giving that triggers them. What triggers an individual is very personal.

So cues are usually neutral. And they're usually related to our senses. And I know you like senses a lot. So what we see, what we hear, you know, all of these things. The senses are really the window to the central nervous system, right? This is how we get information the first time. So in this state of hyperarousability, when something traumatizing is happening, our senses are really...

acutely aware of what's going on. And they are making sense of the insult, but they also are registering everything that's related to that. So these cues usually are neutral. So they're not like a gun, for example, because a gun is not a cue, it's a threatening, it's a threat, right? But it's usually a color.

So there was a red car parked near where they were, so the color red may be a cue, may be a trigger. It was raining the day that that happened, so rain may be a cue, may be a trigger. And to answer your question, identifying those cues are important because... They let you know when your symptoms are coming. They let you know that they're not coming out of nowhere.

They let you know that you're not a problem or that you're crazy or that you're bad, which is sometimes the messages that kids get when they go to that principal's office, okay? But they let you know that they learned themselves, this is a normal response, right?

I've learned through my psychosocial intervention, I've learned that this is a cue that triggers a response from me, triggers a response that was helpful at one time. And through classical conditioning, and we do teach classical conditioning to the kids, those responses then become present, become conditioned, right, when the cue is there, when the trigger is there.
