Yingst detailed his battle with PTSD while covering the Russia-Ukraine war from the ground.
Fox News foreign correspondent Trey Yingst gave a candid account of his experience with post-traumatic stress disorder after spending the last year in a war zone while covering the invasion of Ukraine.
“The past year, while covering the war in Ukraine, I have reported under incoming fire, seen lifeless bodies strewn across landscapes and experienced complex grief that I still process today,” Yingst said. “I know firsthand the rush of adrenaline that clouds your ability to process emotions.” Yingst has reported from Ukraine since before the Russian army invaded on President Vladimir Putin’s orders on Feb. 24, 2022. The Fox News staffer said his decision to remain on the ground as the invasion began has “carried a cost.”Instagram/treyyingst
“We feel OK, until we don’t. For many, post-traumatic stress disorder is not a cut or wound that stings immediately, but rather a dull scar that remains dormant until a sound, a dream or a smell brings memories rushing back in a way that makes it hard to distinguish reality from imagination,” he added.Yingst urged people struggling with PTSD and other forms of trauma to seek out help in the form of mental health counseling or other resources.
