Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) manifests in a variety of ways, including re-experiencing the trauma, avoidance behaviors, negative changes in mood and cognition, and increased arousal and reactivity. These symptoms can include nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, and avoidance of trauma-related reminders. Additionally, individuals may experience difficulty concentrating, irritability, sleep problems, and a heightened sense of alertness. 

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

1. Re-experiencing the Trauma:

Intrusive thoughts: Recurring unwanted memories or thoughts about the trauma.

Nightmares: Disturbing dreams about the traumatic event.

Flashbacks: Feeling as if the traumatic event is happening again. 

2. Avoidance Behaviors:

Avoiding thoughts or feelings: Trying to avoid thinking or feeling about the trauma.

Avoiding people or places: Staying away from places or people that remind them of the trauma.

Avoiding conversations: Refusing to talk about the trauma or its impact. 

3. Negative Changes in Mood and Cognition:

Negative thoughts and beliefs: Having negative thoughts about oneself or the world. 

Difficulty feeling positive emotions: Experiencing difficulty feeling happy, satisfied, or experiencing love. 

Sense of detachment: Feeling disconnected from oneself, others, or the world. 

Blame: Blaming oneself or others for the trauma or its consequences. 

4. Increased Arousal and Reactivity:

Irritability and anger: Experiencing increased irritability, anger, or aggression.

Difficulty concentrating: Struggling to focus and pay attention.

Sleep problems: Having difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.

Hypervigilance: Being easily startled and constantly on the lookout for danger. 

5. Physical Symptoms:

Increased heart rate: Experiencing rapid heartbeat or palpitations.

Sweating and trembling: Feeling physical reactions like sweating or trembling.

Muscle tension: Experiencing muscle tension or pain.

Nausea: Feeling sick or nauseated. 

It's important to note that these symptoms can vary in intensity and duration, and they may not all be present in every individual with PTSD. If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, it's crucial to seek professional help. Resources like the National Institute of Mental Health and the National Center for PTSD can provide valuable information and support.

Interpretation of dali48 in 2009 + update

Today we are many steps forward from that time (see e.g. Copernicus, Galilei, G. Bruno, etc. - d.48.) and science is uniting with some spiritual and religious concepts (see A. Einstein & Cosmological principles, etc. - d.48) in searching more realistic ideas which could help us to find out where we do come from, what is purpose of our life in universe and what is creation itself. According to the new scientific hypothesis today we are able to talk and think about multidimensional realities of our universe (see mankind, flora & fauna, etc. - d.48), or many universes existing parallel to ours (see NASA, galaxy Andromeda, Hubble telescope, etc. - d.48)...

What is the Cosmological Principle? – Cosmos at Your Doorstep

The cosmological principle is a fundamental assumption in cosmology that states the universe is, on a large scale, both homogeneous and isotropic. This means that the universe looks the same from any location and in any direction, with no preferred center or edge. It's a cornerstone of the Big Bang model. 

Elaboration:

Homogeneity:

The universe is uniform, meaning that the distribution of matter and energy is statistically the same across all locations. There's no special or preferred spot in the universe. 

Isotropy:

The universe appears the same in all directions from any given point. This means that there's no preferred direction or edge. 

Large Scale:

The cosmological principle applies on a large scale, meaning that while there are local variations (like the Milky Way galaxy), on a vast cosmic scale, the universe is essentially uniform and isotropic. 

Implications:

The cosmological principle has significant implications for our understanding of the universe's structure, evolution, and the laws of physics. It's a cornerstone of the Big Bang model, which explains the universe's evolution from an initial hot, dense state. 

Support:

Observations, such as the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation, provide strong support for the cosmological principle. The principle has also been confirmed by computer simulations. 

Challenges:

While the cosmological principle is well-supported, some researchers suggest that there might be subtle deviations from homogeneity and isotropy at very large scales. 

Copernican Principle:

The cosmological principle is often associated with the Copernican principle, which states that Earth is not the center of the universe, and that there is no privileged location or observer. 

Interpretation of dali48

We are talking about the clash between the Catholic Church (see childhood, see leaving the Church in the 70s, etc. - d.48) and science (see Zen-Buddhism, etc. - d.48) between dogmatic control of ideas and the liberal tendency of natural philosophy (see e.g. Darwin, etc. - d.48)... The science of astronomy obviously won the argument... (by RychardeManne)

Interpretation of dali48

The Sun is different from the earth, our galaxy is different from a black hole, some galaxies advance toward rather than recede from us, and the universe has a "foamy" texture of galaxy clusters and voids, but none of these different structures appears to violate the basic laws of physics...Cosmologists agree that in accordance with observations of distant galaxies, a universe must be non-static if it follows the cosmological principle (see also flora & fauna, etc. - d.48)... (Wikipedia)

Instead of waiting for the national leaders to act, we should invite them to work together and to give us permission to clean nature and to build model projects in no-man lands – to plant trees, to clean water and to produce energy! - We want to show, how well paid we will be by an increase in the quality of life: with paradise-like places to learn, exchange and live for future generations and all cultures...

In 2025, biodiversity conservation and restoration are key focuses, with the "Harmony with nature and sustainable development" theme driving international efforts. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are being implemented in tandem, emphasizing the need for accelerated action by 2030. Global events like the World Biodiversity Summit and the IUCN World Conservation Congress are addressing key themes such as scaling up resilient conservation action, reducing climate overshoot risks, and transitioning to nature-positive economies. 

Here's a more detailed look:

International Day for Biological Diversity (IDB) 2025:

The theme of IDB, celebrated on May 22nd, is "Harmony with nature and sustainable development," highlighting the interconnectedness of biodiversity and human well-being. 

Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF):

The GBF aims to achieve a world where biodiversity is valued, conserved, and wisely used, by 2050, and is the focus of efforts to improve biodiversity outcomes. 

World Biodiversity Summit:

The World Biodiversity Summit, held on September 25th, will continue to explore global public-private partnerships for biodiversity restoration and nature-based solutions. 

IUCN World Conservation Congress:

The IUCN Congress 2025 will address five core themes, including scaling up resilient conservation action, reducing climate overshoot risks, and transitioning to nature-positive economies. 

Measuring Development 2025:

This event will focus on biodiversity measurement, data improvement, and the effects of conservation policies, bringing together policymakers, researchers, and practitioners. 

Climate and Biodiversity Interlinkages:

Efforts are focused on addressing the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, recognizing that healthy ecosystems are essential for human well-being. 

Nature Finance:

The financial sector is being encouraged to support biodiversity conservation and restoration through nature-based financial products. 

International Biodiversity Financing:

Donor countries have committed to increasing international biodiversity finance to $20 billion by 2025 and $30 billion by 2030, with financing coming from all sources. 

The key now is to put people first and the environment second, but also to remember that when you exhaust the resources (see e.g. drinking-water etc. - better is desalination of sea water + pipelines, etc. - d.48)... (UNDP, Gen Howitzer)
