Some of the symptoms follow. All of these are part of our normal human response to trauma, it's their duration and intensity that can turn them into the life-threatening condition of PTSD. If you are still having strong symptoms three months after the action, you may need experienced help. Our level of trauma will vary according to our personal histories and the level of violence we were exposed to:
watching the stretchers being carried out is traumatic in a different way than being in one. People who come from violent homes in childhood, who are already survivors of rape, assault or abuse may be especially vulnerable.

It is obviously not in their interest to do, having allowed the police a freehand in genova. So what are they hiding ?
It's possible that there is some official help line and I have just not seen it, But it should be plastered all over the papers and TV screens that for sure is not the case.
If you have any info please put it up on indymedia.uk
