Firework Sensitivity For Santa Fe High School Shooting Survivors

fireworks sensitivity

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is defined as a psychological well-being issue that a few people create subsequent to encountering or seeing a perilous occasion, similar to battle, a cataclysmic event, an auto crash, or rape.

The students that endured the shooting at Santa Fe High School are asking that we be considerate when shooting off fireworks this 4th of July.  The sounds of a firework going off can be mistaken for a gunshot. This sound can really have bad effects on someone suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

One Student, Presley heard fireworks over Memorial weekend and panicked.  Presley’s mom reports her little girl was so scared that she had to sleep with her that night.

Another surviving student Sarah said, that she is okay with fireworks and plans to celebrate as they normally do.

PTSD Symptoms

1) Re-encountering: Nightmares or potentially flashbacks

2) Avoidance: Avoiding things or jolt that is an indication of the injury.

3) Arousal: Senses stimulated by a sound, smell, taste contact

4) Negative feelings: Sense of enthusiastic deadness, unavoidable antagonistic perspective of individuals and the world, outrage. In some cases the main feeling a man may have is outrage.

How Can We Help

Avoid shooting fireworks off in the neighborhood. This can be very unsettling for your neighbors and is usually against the law.

What is soft washing?

Direct from Wikipedia,  Soft washing  is a cleaning method using low pressure and specialized solutions (typically bleach, water, and sometimes a surfactant) to safely remove mildew, bacteria, algae and other organic stains from roofs and other building exteriors. [1]  It is so named to differentiate the method from power washing. The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommends low-pressure bleach or detergent assisted washing as the preferred method for cleaning asphalt roofs in order to prevent damage to the shingles. [2] Soft washing is a cleaning technique that can be achieved either by using a pressure washer with a special tip that will reduce the pressure rating down to around 500 psi (or less), [3]  or using a tank, gun, hose, and a 12-volt, air diaphragm, or gas-engine style pump.

Rooftop CleaningMike knows some things about expelling green growth

GET ALGAE OFF THE ROOF, AND SHOW IT THE DOOR! It's GREAT to live in upper east Ohio. Shockingly, individuals aren't the main ones who think so. The annoying minimal single cell life form Gloeocapsa Magma additionally likes to put down roots here – and time and again those "roots" are planted solidly in the tops of our homes. You may not know Gloeocapsa Magma by name, but rather you've no doubt observed this undesirable guest in your neighborhood particularly amid this season when the temperature rises; it's the blue green growth that makes unattractive streaks on rooftops, carports and home siding. As per an exploration outline by the 3M Company, Ohio is found decisively in America's green growth development belt Compared to states like Iowa, where Gloeocapsa Magma is more averse to take up home, our atmosphere and natural conditions reveal an appreciated tangle for green growth. Nothing against our Iowan companions, however we'd much rather stay p...
