We’re going to see WWI levels of PTSD, which they called “shell shock” back then. We’re already breaking suicide records this year so it’s just going to get worse. I have no idea how we are going to fix this.

Shell shock wasn't PTSD. It was actual neurological damage from the concussion of constant artillery strikes nearby for prolonged periods.

Interesting, I hadn’t heard about that. Looks like there’s good evidence to back up that explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_shock

Nowadays the line would be "Have you considered MAID?"
