During WWI, soldiers who developed PTSD were accused of being simply cowards, and by many not considered "real" invalids. Who were they to complain when other soldiers were losing limbs? And now here you are, saying people who have been bullied should suck it up, and not compare themselves to soldiers who have "real" PTSD. The irony.

Because they know it involves physical brain trauma and still say they have it?

Maybe we should be sympathetic to all suffering, rather than criticizing people for not being totally abreast of the latest developments in neuroscience. They're just saying "I hurt," not "I am just as damaged as a veteran at the receiving end of an artillery barrage."
