Question 1

how to cure post traumatic syndrome without medication?

Accepted Answer

PTSD treatment: One way is time, although in the meantime the person is likely to suffer and be miserable. A perhaps better way to treat it without medication is to undergo psychotherapy. There are many effective therapies for ptsd, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt), exposure therapy, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (emdr).

Question 2

is traumatic mastabatory syndrome real? can prone masturbaton really hurt me. can it be cured. i'm a 15 year old male.

Accepted Answer

No: This is the invention of a single independent thinker with a small sample, and has found no acceptance in the mainstream medical community. Life is hard enough without people making you frightened about growing up. Most men consider this practice a good thing, learning about your mind & body in preparation for marriage & adult life. Ask a wise adult, your doctor, or maybe even dad.

Question 3

is traumatic masturbatory syndrome a real condition?

Accepted Answer

I don't think so: The claim is that men who enjoy their bodies while they're lying face down are subsequently unable to climax in any other way. There's a single one-author article from 1998. I think it's one more scare story. A smart man varies his technique to prepare for different possible partners.

Question 4

is it possible to have traumatic masturbatory syndrome?  is it a real disorder?

Accepted Answer

See below: It's more of aberrant masturbatory positioning (prone position) than a pathologic entity.

Question 5

does tms ( traumatic masturbatory syndrome ) affect sex ?

Accepted Answer

Pop diagnosis: I've run into a "pop" claim that if a man usually masturbates lying face-down, he won't be able to have intercourse normally (tms!). This sounds like dubious fear-mongering / tabloid stuff and I have seen nothing in the real medical literature. A problem exists only if you can't function and you have a really meaningful and warm relationship with the other person. Good luck.

Question 6

is there an actual condition known as tms (traumatic masturbatory syndrome)?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Traumatic masturbatory syndrome (tms) is the habit some males have of masturbating in a face-down (prone) position. Tms unfortunately self-discovered an unconventional method. Males who learn to masturbate from other people invariably learn to do it the conventional way. (most males who discover it for themselves also discover the conventional way.).

Question 7

how long does post traumatic syndrome last?

Accepted Answer

Years w/o treatment: Post dramatic stress syndrome can last a lifetime if not treated appropriately. A combination of psychotherapy (especially emdr) and medication like zoloft or another ssri plus low-dose (2-5 mg) Abilify (aripiprazole) can often make a big difference and sometimes even provide a cure.

Question 8

how to cope with someone suffering from post traumatic syndrome? is it normal for ones well being to be affected by them?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Yes, it is normal for others to be affected by a loved one with ptsd. It is best to be supportive to the extent that you encourage the individual to get treatment. Ptsd can be successfully treated with psychotherapy and medication so there is hope.  However, if they refuse treatment and your well being is still compromised, your options are limited. There is no excuse for bad behavior.

Question 9

whats traumatic compartment syndrome?

Accepted Answer

High pressure: After trauma such as a broken bone the pressure in the "compartment" where the bone and muscle are contained can get very high because fluid and blood fill it. It can get so high as to cut off oxygen to the muscles and nerves which can die. It is an emergency that needs to be evaluated by a doctor for possible surgery to release the compartments. Failure to do so can cause loss of use of that limb.

Question 10

can self hypnosis help post traumatics stress syndrome ?

Accepted Answer

Possible: Self hypnosis can be quite effective in modifying your stress response, but it would be better and safer to cocurrently work with a professional such as a psychotherapist or a psychiatrist.
