I've seen footage like this, it's very saddening yet puzzling.

Very hard to treat completely, most patients commit suicide soon after being released. Some have killed family members before killing themselves. Very sad.  |

It looks like a weird, tragic ballet, especially when he's on the floor and with that music.

Re: 1918 Footage of a Shell Shock Victim of WW1
Psycho-motor agitation due to psychological affects of warfare. You can see similar behaviours in those with some psychotic illnesses. Of course, they had no anti-psychotic drugs back in 1918 to help with post traumatic stress reactions. Not propaganda.  |

Re: 1918 Footage of a Shell Shock Victim of WW1
I think ur also dealing in an age where they didnt have not only the coping skills but also any experience or any sort of what they were facing in combat..... they came from the farms to the fields of bombs not just guns.
