If you use terms like "real PTSD," or say there are levels to it, you know shit about PTSD. PTSD effects different people different ways, and can effect the same person different ways, and different severity, on different days. People don't fake PTSD, they fake being ok.

Now, if you say that it effects some people more than it effects others, oh absolutely. But trauma is personal, there are no levels to the illness itself, there can be "levels of severity" in how it effects different people.
