There are plenty of people using the news hype about Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder to fill their own pockets with cold hard cash. This blog article is actually quite clever. She starts out by giving a recap of the latest news regarding the US Army educating their own on the symptoms and possible treatment of PTSD. The article then ends with this:
If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury in Philadelphia or elsewhere in Pennsylvania, please contact the Pennsylvania Brain Injury Attorneys at Pomerantz, Perlberger & Lewis.**

Even though I'm using her blog in a somewhat negative light, I can't talk about it without giving you the source. She may profit off of this, but oh well. While this is just cagey marketing, there are others out there who are not so benign. It's important to me that YOU understand that there is an industry that thrives off of you not getting any better.
Now, don't hate them for it. They're just trying to make money. It's our job to not be tricked or side-tracked away from the main goal: understanding the cause and cure of PTSD.
More to come...
