Lots of people do get over trauma just fine and don't develop PTSD the problem with PTSD is it doesn't allow for 'getting over the trauma' instead more or less makes the person relive it in various ways, causes one to have an overactive stress response which is actually physically damaging in the long run making people with it more prone to physical illnesses stress can contribute to yes it litterlly can kill more or less...not just by suicide. So I don't see how PTSD is not a disorder simply because some people get over trauma.

Also if you have PTSD I am not saying yours isn't real...I'd just disagree about it not being a disorder. It seemed you're implying PTSD isn't real and shouldn't be recognized as a condition anymore, sorry if I misunderstood.
Thanks for this!
