(PTSD):TYPICAL TRAITS • This monster nurses a broken limb from
prior battles
• Can be hypervigilant (on constant “red alert”) and fear betrayal, making it harder to trust
• Often prefers to be alone, detaching itself from others (often those connected to prior battles)
• Prone to irritability or outbursts of anger, but also has an ability to protect itself with emotional numbness
• FLASH-BACK ATTACK Can overcome its opponent with intrusive, upsetting visions.
• TRIGGER ATTACK A targeted attack that triggers intense physical reactions when opponent is struck (includes pounding heart, rapid breathing, nausea, muscle tension, sweating).
• SHOCKPLAY An impulse that causes feelings of intense distress.
• BLIND-ATTACK Can blind its opponent with a view of a limited future.
• NOCTURNE ATTACK Lulls the opponent to sleep and implants nightmare seeds into their dreams.
• AIM FOR 30 MINUTES OF ACTIVITY ON MOST DAYS Start small, listen to your body and build gradually.
• FIND ACTIVITIES THAT ARE FUN AND ENJOYABLE, AND WORK FOR YOU Anything from walking with a friend, to a group class or even something as simple as gardening at home. Creating an exercise habit is difficult, but finding one you enjoy can make it easier to come back to – and more likely you’ll stick to your program.
• WALKING OUTDOORS Studies have shown outdoor exercise to be associated with increased energy and revitalization, as well as decreased confusion, anger, depression and tension, when compared with exercising indoors.
• JOIN A SPORTS TEAM Mental health is shown to improve with social interaction, and joining your local Oztag or Netball team will allow you to enjoy exercise whilst being in a community environment.
