This man is a Roman Catholic priest living in Rome. He's not a layperson.

Also PTSD is not "trauma issues" it's a medical condition and a mental health disability that requires ongoing professional treatment . It's not a self improvement issue. It can interfere with a persons ability to sleep, parent, work, trust others, sustain friendships.

The clergy need to be trained in mental health care. It's not his fault .
