PTSD is sure no joke to the people I know in NYC. The worst case is the one I sent you her account of (the Battery Park City people). Fleeing in the Black Cloud (they distinguish it from the Grey Cloud) was particularly horrible because he has an awful neurological disease and can barely walk. (People were amazingly kind.) But a close friend who lives on 77th Street, where they could smell smoke for a long time, and who still hasn't gone down to Ground Zero, has been in a despairing depression ever since. She has no children, and now, for the first time, is glad.

Yes, she's taking some sort of anti-depressant now, but it doesn't seem to be helping very much. She used to be very funny. Now she's kind of... grim.
