ONLINE: "The Impact of PTSD" (Part 2)

This is the Monday night meeting for Orlando Stoics. It's online.

Over the years, Orlando Stoics has covered the many negative influences on our lives. However, this is the first time we will cover the impact of PTSD. It's a difficult subject, and we will not attempt a solution or cure. However, we will offer an overview of what PTSD represents and some ways that Stoicism can help. Dave will help Dan with the dialogue. Hope you can join us for this important topic! Part 1 (4-25), Part 2 (5-02).

Our group enjoys open-minded, respectful conversations on Stoicism and how it relates to science, culture, philosophy, other belief systems, and even pop culture (books and movies). Sometimes "we agree to disagree", but the long-term goal is to improve our minds via group discussions.

In general, Stoicism teaches us how to handle difficult people and events, how to avoid anger and worry, and overall to use moderation in all aspects of our lives.

This meeting is free and open to the public.
