Environment can have an impact on biology. And PTSD is a negative impact because of a negative stressor or accumulation of stressors. But that also means that if the impact is positive, as in a good supportive system or as in psychotherapy, that recovery can actually happen in an easier way.

No, this is a very interesting subject. The jury is still out if genomic changes that result as a consequence of stress can be passed from one generation to the other. But certainly the genes that made one generation vulnerable are being passed to the next generation as well that we know. So it can be passed that way. But what happens is that there's also this impact of learning.

And I have treated kids that come to me with all of the symptoms of PTSD and there's no trauma. I cannot find the trauma and the parent cannot find the trauma and the kid doesn't report a trauma. But when I'm talking with the parent, the trauma becomes evident in the history of the parent.

So the parent has developed PTSD and behaves in a way that has been learned by the new generation, ways like avoidance or re-experience or hypervigilance or lack of trust, you know, things like that. So certainly there are pathways in which it can go from one generation to the other. And we know that the battle between nature and nurture is pretty much over, right?

We know that they both influence vulnerability and that they both interact. And I imagine that's what's happening in some of these situations.

No, this is very interesting. Well, we're talking about the letters. Let me say that a lot of people call post-traumatic stress disorder post-traumatic stress injury, not considering it a disorder, but considering it something that where our fight or flight mechanism, the autonomic nervous system has been desensitized And we need to regulate it again. And it's going to hurt.

It's going to be painful. It's just like when you break your arm and go to the emergency room and it hurts to be placed back in place. But it's the cure. It's what cures it. So a lot of people visualize, and sometimes I do, as an injury rather than a disorder.
